Waxwork
Waxwork is a 1988 American comedy horror film written and directed by Anthony Hickox in his directorial film debut and starring Zach Galligan, Deborah Foreman, Michelle Johnson, David Warner, Dana Ashbrook, and Patrick Macnee. It is partially inspired by the 1924 German silent film Waxworks.
Plot
In a small suburban town, a group of college students—Mark Loftmore, China Webster, Sarah Brightman, Gemma, James, and Tony—visit a mysterious wax museum. Their trip was caused by Sarah and China's earlier encounter with David Lincoln, a taciturn gentleman who claims to own the exhibit and extends them an invitation.
