Waxwork has an interesting concept, but the movie never seems to be all put together.
It initially has a nice cult feel, but then afterwards, the camp goes away as soon as the holograms start. Not that I think
they ruin the film, but the effect of them should be emphasized more.
Although cheesy with traces of B-film quality, Waxwork has left me entertained because it's not meant to be serious.
Anyway, the acting isn't bad. I would've liked to know the names of eighteen most evil men who had ever lived.
All in all, Waxwork feels like an uneven jigsaw puzzle that needs to be smoothed out more.
