En 1913, à Rome, un nouveau musée de cire est ouvert. L'attraction principal de cet établissement est la reconstitution très réaliste d'horribles scènes de meurtre. Un jeune homme fait le pari qu'il peut passer la nuit au sein du musée. Le lendemain matin, celui-ci est retrouvé mort. Peu à peu, le musée attire les foules et des personnes disparaissent. Les statues de cire s'avèrent être de plus en plus étranges... (texte officiel du distributeur)

The Italian-French production Wax Mask is primarily based on great, really enjoyable practical effects. Sergio Stivaletti did a great job here, and there are some wonderful scenes. However, some scenes are rather boring, and you wish it would have moved on a bit, although despite that, I did enjoy the movie as it is visually engaging.

A quite accurate cross-section of Italian horror. There’s a bit of 60s gothic, a bit of 70s Giallo, a pinch of gore, nice visuals, awful actors uttering even more awful lines, and general silliness if not stupidity. It’s fun in the details, but as a film overall, it suffers from so many of the typical afflictions of Italian horror cinema (that very few movies in its history have been able to avoid!), that they are just impossible to ignore.

An appealing premise set in a wax house, but I wasn't too keen on it. It's nicely shot, occasionally gory, but it didn't draw me into the plot, it didn't work on me, it didn't have the impact they probably intended. 55%
