thats about how i feel ..
didnt hate it - didnt love it - i'd buy it for 6$ just to see the house melt at the end.

I like the Paris-pipe-in-the-head scene best. :) The other cool effects was the body-hot-wax-death-spray and the wax that fell off dude's face and his muscle tissue and bones were exposed.

I bought it just to see Paris get killed.

If someone would put out a compilation DVD of the 100 best kills in a film, I would be the first in line to buy it.

And Paris should be in the top 10.

I didn't figure I would enjoy it much, but I did... Mostly for the imagery, something about wax people is pretty creepy to me. I liked the ending and thought it was shot well.

The acting was nothing special, but I don't think it hurt the film much.

I just watched it again tonight, and thought it was still pretty good. It has to be one of the most unique slashers out there. It has some good kills, paris of course, and the annoying kid getting decapitated, but what really catches my attention is the location. The isolated town is very spooky.The movie is very gory by slasher standards, like, i think it was just as if not significantly more gory than SaW. What pissed me off the most was the attempted jump out sequences. These are what makes a movie scary to me, and they all sucked. They failed at being jumpy worse than scream, which wasn't MEANT to be jumpy. The acting wasn't all that awful. The star girl, can't remember her name, but she was actually quite good. The best actor however, was Bo, the main killer. He is a great actor and could make it in better movies than this.

Meh, what the heck
7/10

I wish I had not read this thread before watching HoW...

saw it like 2 hours ago there, was really dissapointed! Although the peeling off the skin on your man and his jaw and teeth being exposed where awesome effects, and the hot wax spray thing was pretty cool. The twins really didnt do it for me at all. I like my killers/psychos to be a bit more... freaky (leatherface/norman bates/Henry etc).

I give it a whopping 6/10

I think the killer was the best actor.
