★★★★☆
Director: Anthony Hickox
Studio: Live/Artisan
Synopsis:
A group of young adults, led by Mark Loftmore (Zach Galligan) and Sarah Brightman (Deborah Foreman), take a trip to a recently opened wax museum in their town. We soon discover something evil lurks behind the doors of this once, seemingly innocent gallery. The curator of the museum, David Lincoln (David Warner), seeks to open a portal to Hell through which horrifying monsters of histories past will rise again to conquer the living. In order to accomplish this, Lincoln must find several specimens to sacrifice to the dark and malevolent gods. One by one, the protagonists discover that the wax effigies they came to admire are both very real and very dangerous.
Mike's Thoughts:
This movie was one that I can recall first seeing at a young age. I have always been mesmerized by the allure and mystery of the wax museum and this movie completely acts out all of my fantasies regarding this gallery of wonder.
Yes, it's low-budget. Yes, it's campy. Yes, it's awesome!
Look For:
Zach Galligan (star of Gremlins 1&2) as Mark Loftmore.
