Jaume Collet-Serra’s remake of House of Wax is a nostalgia trip worth taking for fans of noughties horror.
Unlike its many star basketball players, the film is both underachieving and self-hagiographic.
Nothing here is very fleshed-out, but it really does seem as if Jaume Collet-Serra had a lot of fun making this thing.
As the film grinds on, Samuel L. Jackson starts to look marooned and eventually seems to give up trying.
