@MatthewTitus88 I have some of these. They are very delightful too. #Monsterdon #TerrorInTheWaxMuseum 👹🍿🎥

Once again, the real monsters in #Monsterdon are humans 🤢

So far this is putting a lot of effort into explaining why Karkov is innocent, so I'm going to be annoyed if it was all an act.

#Monsterdon #WaxMuseum1973

Starring Police Inspector JRR Tolkien.

#monsterdon

Next we have a line outside the wax museum, where Kharkov scares the ladies from behind his grate. Inside, a police inspector is investigating the horrific murder of the wax magician who died 67 hours ago, and a photographer is taking pictures of the Jack the Ripper model, so we can do a foreshadowing.

Probably they're going to blame poor Kharkov because the door was locked and he lives in the basement, I think.

#monsterdon

We need some proper detective work here. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon Detective from Schhhhhcotland Yarrrsd…

@cmdln I might rather be watching that movie

#Monsterdon #TerrorInTheWaxMuseum #WaxMuseum1976

The train that arrives from Brighton at that time in the morning at the weekend quite the parade....

Supposed to be London in the 1890s

#Monsterdon #TerrorInTheWaxMuseum

Infrequent trains? Are we *sure* this is in London?

Ray Milland has arrived and he is pissed off!

#Monsterdon

Till now the scariest thing in this movie was this singing lady

Oh this bloodbath is going to be great PR for this scary wax museum #Monsterdon

He lost his glasses- now he can't read books after the nuclear holocaust!

"Lyre." These statues are very particular about the type of music they want, I guess
#Monsterdon #TerrorAtTheWaxMuseum

Who wouldn't trust Mr. Burns? #Monsterdon #TerrorInTheWaxMuseum

If you thought you were getting Vincent Price, the movie you want is "House of Wax."

But c'mon. Ray Milland (sans frogs!) and John Carradine? That almost makes up for no Vincent.

#Monsterdon #TerrorInTheWaxMuseum

@allanb *sigh* Shame. #Monsterdon #TerrorInTheWaxMuseum 👹🍿🎥

*opens bag of sweet and spicy cones

Let's fucking goooo!

#Monsterdon

oh sure, blame Karkov.

#monsterdon #TerrorInTheWaxMuseum1973

#monsterdon Who's having a lovely little psychotic fit? Looks like Cousin Eddie Scrooge is... that's who.

A sleeping cap appears

#Monsterdon

These wax figures seem to have anger issues

...probably should've gotten a wax therapist in there

Lizzie Borden had an axe, gave her mother forty wax?

I’m going to assume his order of half and half is something other than the creamer. #Monsterdon

I respect that he's not just running a wax museum. This is a wax museum full of murderers.... You gotta niche down to find your customer base. #monsterdon

#monsterdon Can I have one more day? For something we'll say... uh, pronunciation is a little difficult.. plut? Ploot? PLOT! That's it! We need a plot! ;)

Misidentifying the monster, check

For example, they're filming a movie. #Monsterdon

so, he's a time traveler then? The Master?

Tell me about the viking

#Monsterdon

Forget violence or drugs: the worst influence movies have had upon The Youths (it me, I'm the Youths) is the mistaken belief that you can build your own secret laboratory down in the sewers.
#Monsterdon

Mr Burns?!

#monsterdon Cut the body scene out... tsk.

@Lazarou Yep, 360x480, and I'm pretty sure pan and scan?

"They'll make a movie about anything" sorry movie, when you've spent this long being obnoxiously, unironically gross, you don't get to attempt knowing, post-modern irony #Monsterdon

Maybe SHE'S the killer from the last movie...

table laughs

"Ahhh, she ate it, stupid bitch! ahhh!"

#Monsterdon

Definitely Vampire Romance.....

#Monsterdon

This movie's really tearing me apart....

#Monsterdon #WrongWax

#monsterdon ways I thought the wax museum would include terror:

1) a curator so sick and twisted, they made the statues out of real bodies

2) statues that came to life via evil

3) ghosts with telekinesis trying to send a message through the statues

But instead we got

4) no

What kind of werewolf is that?!

#Monsterdon

"Do I get a pretty woman in my illusion, no I get a dick!"

called it

#Monsterdon

Werewolf cam! #Monsterdon

No, you need... a bicycle! called "Silver Bullet!" I forgot the rest. It might have involved AC/DC...

Oh, I see, this is just a shitty episode of Sliders #Monsterdon

Insane Clown Posse had a song about something like this....

#Monsterdon #WrongWax

Billy
His name was 'Billy' in the Gremlins movie wasn't it?

#Monsterdon

Is the show the giant and the little person fucking? Is this that sort of Party house?

#Monsterdon

Trust your instinct, lady. Good job.

#Monsterdon #WrongWax

Oh good twist ending! I didn't suspect the neighboring bartender. 😆

#Monsterdon #TerrorInTheWaxMuseum

@kshernandez @Terencio It was a bit confusing because they chose not to show his face or say his name until the very last frame, when they showed the new wax exhibit of him murdering Dupree.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

There were what, seven sets in all?

I didn't *hate* the movie per se, but it definitely could have had better plotting.

I admit though that I thought Ray Milland was the murderer until the end.

I'm not going to wax on poetically about tonight's film.

I'll let the soundtrack album speak for me.

Anyway thanks for sharing your toots.

And as always thank you @Taweret for hosting.

Terror in the Wax Museum (1973) - 1/5

Not even bad enough to be good.

#monsterdon #monsterdonReviews

#monsterdon #WaxMuseum1976
🕯️🏛️ 🧟 🪓 🔪💀 😱

Former actor runs wax museum and murders people to .. create platinum tools...

I don't even care. It sucked.

Thanks a lot, @Taweret , @JoeWynne , @Cherizilla , and all other #monsterdonian criminals involved in this waxy buildup.

So... Why was the guy sitting on a giant hoard of platinum feeling the need to sell his beloved museum to a rich American?
When he could've just bequeathed the hoard itself and kept his museum running too?

#Monsterdon #TerrorInTheWaxMuseum

Perhaps not the worst #Monsterdon movie but definitely the biggest all-around disappointment, in my book - all the wrong people got killed and it doesn't even make sense who did it

Thanks as always @Taweret for hosting and everybody for posting! Now on to literally anything else^K^K^K^K^K^K the double feature, or see you next week!

#Monsterdon #TerrorInTheWaxMuseum #WaxMuseum1976

I want to spoil the ending everywhere so nobody falls into the trap of watching Terror in the Wax Museum ever again

#Monsterdon #TerrorInTheWaxMuseum

what was the name of the movie with the werewolf break? i don't even remember. that had a similar "...who?!" ending

#monsterdon #WaxMuseum1976

It seems the reason I couldn't remember who the killer was is because it was a total nobody character. #monsterdon

The credits font is so cheerful. I don’t like it.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Sadly, with the landlord dead, and no written lease, the future of the wax museum is seriously in question.

I guess we can say that the wooden acting threw the wax figures into sharp relief? Not to mention a plot that could have been an email. Still, I did enjoy watching with everyone!

Thank you for hosting as always, @Taweret. And thank you everyone else for all the commenting fun. Have a great week!

#Monsterdon

So...
Who was the killer?
#monsterdon

#monsterdon That was a very silly cockney vase you bitch! ;)

A horror film cannot afford to make a murder boring. This one did it three times in a row. Alas.
