WaxWorks was limited released in theaters on Jby Vestron Pictures and was been said to be the first self-referential horror film way before Scream and its many clones. ![]() Once inside, while viewing different exhibits, the scenes come alive and the viewer is sucked into the story being portrayed.” ![]() “A waxwork museum comes to town, and a mysterious man invites some teens to come to a special showing at midnight. So let’s take a stroll through this crazy WaxWork and see if we can give ourselves a scare or two…or at least learn a little something about this underrated film series. As always our good friends at IMDB will supply us with the films write up and I will follow them up with some production notes, film facts as well as chat about my first time seeing them. So now that we are up to date on the villains of WaxWork, we should now dive into the film itself as well as its sequel and see what makes this series tick. Each of these killers and madmen have their own powers and methods of killing making them all very evil and very dangerous! So to sum it up, David’s team is filled with some of the top madmen in cinema. Our main killing machines after our cast of characters are the blood sucking Count Dracula and his vampire family, a crazed werewolf, a shuffling head crushing Mummy, flesh eating zombies and the master of erotic murder and torture Marquis de Sade all who take pleasure in killing their targets. Among the madmen that are waiting to rule our world are The Phantom Of The Opera, Frankenstein’s Monster, Alien, Man Eating Planet, Evil Demon Baby, Invisible Man and Jack The Ripper to name a few. While he might not be as unstoppable as some Horror Movie bad guys, David Lincoln is just as dangerous as he has lots of evil talents and friends in very low places.īut while David Lincoln is our main villain, I feel like we should also briefly talk about the fact most of the killing and soul taking is being done by the monsters in the wax museum as they rule their own display and dispatch those silly enough to enter them. Both are very loyal to David and his cause of world destruction. Hans is one of his butlers who is a little person and has the attitude of a bully while Junior is a very tall man who has the mind of a child. His weakness is the fact that while he does not age, he still can be killed like a normal man. He is pretty strong and has killed people with his bare hands, and his is very smart making him a very dangerous man. He also can use guns really well and has the gift of talk as he is able to come off as a nice guy even though he has sinister intentions. David also seems to want the world to be in chaos and wants it to end with humans being killed by monsters. Once he meets his goal of 18 souls, the monsters and killers will once more be freed into our times! David seems to have supernatural powers as he is ageless, can appear and disappear and seems to have control over his butlers Hans and Junior as well as the killers whom he is trying to bring back. ![]() His goal is to have innocent people stumble into the displays where they will be killed and their souls taken. His hideout is a wax museum in the middle of a neighborhood that he hides the amulets in with the displays of the killers. ![]() David Lincoln is an evil man who has not aged in decades due to black magic amulets that hold the spirits of some of the world’s most fearsome and murderous creatures and killers. So if you’re ready to take a tour of this WaxWorks on a day they are celebrating the theme of From Horror Movie To Horror Comics, then I am 100% ready to as this is an update I have been waiting to do for a very long time.īefore we go on we must first look at the main villain of the film and that’s David Lincoln and his sidekicks Hans and Junior. This time around we are going to take a look at the underrated and one of my favorite late 80’s horror films Waxwork and the Blackthrone Comic based on it!
