10 Worst Slasher Movie Reboots Ever Made
10. House Of Wax (2005)
2005's House of Wax is a bad film, plain and simple. The only reason it ranks so low here is that in addition to being really bad, it is really forgettable. In fact, this list is likely the first time anyone has drawn any sort of attention to this movie in some time now.
This rehash of the 1953 Vincent Price film is a remake in name and name alone, carrying over virtually nothing from the source material, including the intrigue. While far from iconic, Vincent Price's House of Wax was an incredibly creative movie. Creativity being something completely lost on this reboot.
This film is one of the single most generic, boring horror stories you could possibly imagine. None of the characters are even remotely interesting or likeable, and exist for no other reason than to die. Not only that, but all of this happens in the most formulaic and predictable way possible.
It fails as both a remake and a standalone film to a staggering degree, and 2005's House of Wax is best left as the boring, thankfully fading memory it is.
