Waxwork II

Waxwork II: Lost in Time

written and directed by Anthony Hickox

Release: March 1992
Format: Feature Film
Genres: Fantasy, Horror
Audience: Adults
Content: Definite Time Travel
Original Language: English

After the flaming climax at the end of Waxwork (which had no time travel that I could see), Mark and Sarah (a different actress) crawl home only to be followed by a disembodied hand that (before being garbage-disposaled into tiny pieces) hacks Sarah’s nearly evil stepfather to death. Nobody at Sarah’s subsequent trial for murder believes that story, so after listening to a movie of dead Patrick Macnee, they escape into a series of bad horror movie remakes from Frankenstein to Aliens.

Of course, all these movies are set in different times, but is there any actual time travel? The final scene gives a definitive answer, when Sarah meets James Westborn, after the verdict of her trial.

We burned that place to the ground. Nothing could have got out.
