House of Wax (1953) introduced Vincent Price to the horror genre, where he seamlessly integrated as a masterful sculptor of wax figures. This film, a remake of the 1933 classic "Mystery of the Wax Museum," features Price as a talented artist who uses his victims as models for his eerily lifelike wax creations, including depictions of Marie Antoinette and Joan of Arc. The movie was a significant financial success, partly due to its innovative use of 3-D technology, which accounts for the frequent objects hurled towards the camera. Notably, director Andre De Toth, who was blind in one eye, could not fully appreciate the 3-D effect, adding an intriguing layer to the film's production history.
