Tango and Cash Surprised by the current 6.2 rating for Waxwork. I thought it was significantly bad, and my primary reason for saying that is because it was dull and in many places very slow. The idea of the movie is a fun, campy one that's been done in several other movies, with the classic being Vincent Price in "House of Wax" in the 50s. So it's disappointing that so little was done with Waxwork - particularly considering the exceptional cast that was assembled. Love Dana Ashbrook.This is a dull, slow, boring movie that is mostly filler. It revs up near the end but it's too little too late.

amostviciouscircle First off, if your reading this or looking into this movie Im assuming you like 80s horror, or are interested in it in some way or perhaps have some fetish for one of the actors or the director.Either way to rate an 80s horror movie as you should know is in its own rating system, because 80s horror movies are its own category/genre and WAXWORK is high up on the list in the decade horror most thrived.This movie had every element of 80s horror without taking itself to seriously and also not being to stupid at the same time. It was just FUN to watch, entertaining and never a dull moment... well maybe one or two so fine it gets 8 stars.So if you like 80s horror and never seen this one, WATCH IT NOWThis isn't a spoiler but just something I thought was kind of cool, the ending sort of reminds me of a low rate 80s version of the ending of "The cabin in the woods" you'll see what I mean.

RecceR A group of friends attend a private showing at a new Waxwork museum, but the owner has a sinister plan that involves the wax figures. The museum has displays of the most sinister creatures known to man and once a person steps onto the display, they enter the creature's world. I thoroughly enjoy this movie every time I watch it because it is very creative and set out to do something completely different. The only negative thing I can say is that the effects and editing are fairly poor. However, it doesn't stand out that much or ruin the movie at all. It is full of dark humor and gives nods to great horror movies. Of course, it wouldn't be a campy 80's movie without Gremlins star Zach Galligan and several other memorable actors from the decade showing up. It should also be mentioned that this is Anthony Hickox's first feature-length film, which makes it even more impressive. This is a gem when it comes to campy horror movies and is a definite must-see.

FlashCallahan Wealthy slacker college student Mark, his new girlfriend Sarah, and their friends are invited to a special showing at a mysterious wax museum which displays 18 of the most evil men of all time. After his ex-girlfriend and another friend disappear, Mark becomes suspicious. What he doesn't know is that they have been made a part of the exhibit, by first living out the scene and then being murdered in it......Back in the day, this was one of those bizarre horror movies that you caught on TV and never saw again.There were very few scenes I remember, but I remember I loved the film and it's sequel. Finally getting a chance to see it again, the rose tinted specs did not help the fact that's found this a little too average.The references to 'something wicked this way comes' are rife throughout, and all I see in Galligan is Billy Peltzer acting the pathetic fool.It's a very bizarre movie, with great make up and cheap sets, but it redeems itself come the finale with its bonkers fight between old men and titular characters.After seeing this finale again, I really wonder how original Joss Whedon is, because it's so much like 'Cabin in the Woods'.All in all, it's average stuff with a couple of good scenes, but nothing special.
