Just gross
Violence: creepy guy with wax face kills people by ripping off their skin and pouring hot wax on them to turn them into wax people to put in his wax museum while they're still alive. Sexual content : Paris is shown in her underwear and bra.

sure
it wasnt that bad. id let any teenagers see it. paris hilton is just awful. id rather no child see her strip. but the violence is not an issue for teens. and most teens have sex so i guess the sexual content is not a huge deal.

Great movie
This movie is really good. I saw it in movie theaters with a friend and was surprised at the fact that it was not extremely violent. From the tagline (pray.slay.display.)to what the movie was about, you would think it would be very brutal and bloody, well than you'd b wrong. The movie is violent and somewhat gory, but its nothing that horror fans haven't seen before, and everyone dies in like 30 minutes. The movie has violence and some gore (including brief scenes of torture), a breif strip scene, a naked manaquine, and some language. Overall I think parents should consider what their kids can handle before watching this movie. If they have seen other R rated horror movies than this should not be a problem (this is nowhere near as bad as High Tension, that movie should have been NC-17). If your kid really wants to see it, and they have seen other R rated movies (that were R for violence) than you should let them see it, you could do much worse than letting them see this.

my favorite movie
house of wax is my favorite movie of all times. i'm not sure it would be good for kids yonger then 11. i'm 16 and still thought the movie was gross. alot of blood, carly[elisha] gets her finger cut off, doltin gets his head cut off by vincent, wade[jared padalecki] gets his a part of his face cut off, paige[paris hilton] gets a pole threw her head, blake gets a knife through his throat. but nothing to chad [murry] except he gets a knife through his leg at the end. so, its not for kids. but it's a very great slasher movie.

Scary so Scary
I think Chad Micheal Murry was so hot in that heck in every thing he does.I thought he was cool in the movie. And I thought it was cool when he saved his sister I thought he was so brave.

Definatly not scary, just desturbing. Yes they do kill everyone and eat thier fingers but it's not scary...too me. A scary movie i saw was Drag me to h***. i felt like i had to sleep with a knife under my pillow after that.

Great Slasher Movie
I watched this movie with my older sister (15). It was really good! But i really hated the part when the guy glues the girls my mouth, but it was a good scene at the same time.(:

i could handle this movie. The jump scenes were moderately intense and the bloody effects looked fake. Of course a lot of things to me are fake in horror movies. This movie was pretty good, but it wasn't a good horror film, if that makes sense. Good for ages 16 and up.

Great Slasher Flick
This was a very good slasher flick. I give it 8.5/10. The acting was good (including Paris Hilton). I think this is acceptable to anyone in high school, as long as they have a strong stomach. The language is nothing worse than what they would hear at school (three or four f-words). The sexuality isn't that bad (a few pokes at the Paris Hilton sex tape). The movie's rated R for the violence, mainly. The language isn't that bad.

Disgusting
I watched this when I was like 7 or something because of my brother peer pressuring me to. I HATE IT!! This movie left me soo scared for a very long time, I felt sick to my stomach after I watched it and the only thing that made me feel better was a little kids game my sister let me play. Anyway- sometimes I had a fear of getting out of cars or out of beds, afraid some maniac might snip the back of my ankle!! There's poles that go through heads, heads that get chopped off, fingers that get chopped off, etc.. Its stupid. Like all horror movies. Whoever gets pleasure out of things like this are obviously brainwashed. Of course I'm not that scared of this movie as much as I was before but I still am mad at my brother for making me watch it >.<
