Chaos is BACK to resurrect the pod and it starts with House of Wax (1953)! A delicate genius sculptor (Vincent Price) loses his mind and almost his life when his business partner burns down his beloved wax museum with him inside. They say the best revenge is a life well-lived, and good ol Vince takes this to heart with a deadly comeback and dreams of living forever through his masterpiece of murder! Highlights from Chaos include that crazy fire scene that put the actors in real danger, historical facts about the era, and Carolyn Jones’ head-spinning turn from the happily macabre brunette Morticia Addams to the eerily cheerful blonde Cathy.
