House of Wax

A few different versions of this tale exist—including the 2005 remake starring Paris Hilton—but the 1953 Vincent Price-starrer is the standout. It begins with a feud between turn-of-the-century wax-museum partners; one has artistic principles (Price’s sculptor character, naturally) while the other only sees dollar signs. A terrible fire breaks out and from there, a tale of revenge takes shape—involving bubbling vats of boiling-hot wax. Rent or buy on Prime Video.
