- Pete ChandlerJanuary 9, 2026I was extremely surprised by this movie, it was in it's day well crafted with great fx. The acting was great for it's time and also had a good cast. I'd like to see a remake as Waxworks have not gone out of fashion but would ponder if like 'A Nightmare on Elm St', 'Hellraiser' and 'The Fog' remakes would interfere with the greatness of the original.
