Although I feel the original Waxwork is a much better film this one is a hell of a lot of fun. It obviously doesn't take itself seriously and sets the tone as soon as it begins when Sarah is followed home by a severed hand which kills her abusive stepfather. She is than put on trial as Mark looks for evidence to free her. Both she and him are thrust back into different dimensions courtesy of a sort of time compass. This is where the movie flourishes exploring the worlds of different films. My favorites being the black and white sequences from the film the haunting and starring genre icon Bruce Campbell and the "Alien" sequel sci fi horror sequence. And there's a lot more than that. The movie is overly goofy which makes it less good than the original. But it's still a wacky, fun flick that has actually gotten better over time.
7.5/10
