Warner Bros. Pictures, in association with Village Roadshow Pictures, and Dark Castle Entertainment Productions held the premiere of House of Wax at the Mann Village Theater in Westwood, California on April 26th.


This re-make is an exciting re-imagining of the l953 horror classic, which starred Vincent Price as Professor Henry Jarrod. This time while a group of kids are on a road trip to one of the biggest college football games of the year they find that their car might have been deliberately tampered with. Accepting a ride into Ambrose, the only town for miles, they find themselves stalked by a mysterious killer. They must find a way out of Ambrose...or become permanent additions to the HOUSE OF WAX.


Seen on the carpet were the stars of HOUSE OF WAX: Elisha Cuthbert (Carly Jones), Chad Michael Murray (Nick Jones), Brian Van Holt (Bo/Vincent), Paris Hilton (Paige Edwards), Jared Padalecki (Wade), Jon Abrahams (Dalton Chapman), Robert Ri'chard (Blake), Damon Herriman (Roadkill Driver), Joel Silver (Producer), Susan Levin (Producer), Jaume Collet-Serra (Director), Chad Hayes and Carey W. Hayes (Screenwriters).


Joining the stars was: Sophia Bush from ONE TREE HILL (who recently married Chad Michael Murray), Casper Van Dien (STARSHIP TROPPERS) and his wife Catherine Oxenberg, Kirsten Bell (VERONICA MARS), Amanda Bynes (WHAT I LIKE ABOUT YOU), Christine Lakin (STEP BY STEP), Brothers Conti (who have a song in the film), Arlen Escarpeta (AMERICAN DREAMS), Steve Railsback (THE VISITOR), and many others.


HOUSE OF WAX opens in theaters May 6th and is rated R for horror violence, some sexual content and language. For more check out www.houseofwaxmovie.com / AOL keyword: HOUSE OF WAX

Come on how can this movie not suck??? Paris Hilton and Elisha Cuthbert in frame together. Sorry to all EC fans but somewhere between 24 and Girl Next Door someone hit her with the no talent stick, HARD!!! Chad Murray reminds me of a skinhead Pacey so I am sure we will see him in a lot more films like this, like Pacey did. Has any review given this movie more then 2 stars???

how the heck can you go from Vincent Price to *makes sicky noises* paris hilton?

Paris can act? I thought she was only into reality porn movies ;). Going to be hard to watch with a poser of an "actor" in the movie. Plus she has the self proclaimed "best death scene". HA! I don't know...
