House of Wax/Mystery of the Wax Museum DVD

Wow, Wow, Wow, and Wow.

First Wow, House of Wax is even better than I remembered it. The color, Mr. Price, great movie!!!

Second Wow, where did MYSTERY OF THE WAX MUSEUM come from? I never heard of it, but about 75% of it's script was used for HOUSE OF WAX. Besides the Raymond Chandler reporter type subplot, it was damn good!

Third Wow, Fay Wray was HOOOOOTTTTT! She is still alive isn't she?

Forth Wow, can anybody explain to me what happened in the last 10 seconds of Mystery? I'm so confused.

First, the color is great, but the film loses a lot when seen in modified flat format.

Second, it came from Hollywood.

Third, yes, Fay Wray is alive and in her 90's.

Fourth...it has been too long since I've seen it. I'm looking forward to seeing it again.

Fifth....check out DOCTOR X, another technicolor horror film with Fay Wray made the same year as MYSTERY.

Sixth, there's already a thread about this DVD.

Scot, I must say I'm surprised that you've never so much as heard of Mystery of the Wax Museum.

Never, can you believe it? I was amazed at how close the two were....the production values for Mystery are far better (and you can tell more expensive) than House....

Yeah, that's basically it. She had a special invitation to be there so she could be introduced after one of those clip montages.

I don't think the second sentence had any correlation to the opinion offered in the first sentence. She was hot, no question. And she is still alive, no question.
