Review of Waxwork

Waxwork (1988)
5/10
Waxing and waining
10 February 2021
Fun, funny, silly, stupid, and sometimes tasteless, 'Waxwork' gets plenty of kicks out of its nonsense story and it's simple shocks.

Honourable mentions to veterans David Warner and Patrick McNee who get into the spirit of things and a game cast of younger actors who scream and sprint with aplomb.

If you like 80's films or horror comedy then I strongly recommend 'Waxwork'. Don't take it seriously, just appreciate the mild vulgarity with relish!

I rate a strong 5/10 as it stands; and a superior cast of younger actors and tighter directing for the action scenes would probably render 'Waxwork' a very valuable genre classic. As it is there is much to enjoy if this sounds like your kind of flick!
