About
House of wax: Classic horror movie about an insane sculptor that builds a wax museum out of things that used to be alive.
The haunting: Dr. Markway, a trained anthropologist with a special interest in psychic research, wants to try what he hopes will be a true exercise in terror. He's heard about the reputation of Hill House, which claimed the lives of several of its young inhabitants, and wishes to explore the horrors of the unseen and the unexplained.
Freaks: This film features a cast of actual side-show freaks, yet the film soon reveals that the normal members of the traveling carnival are the true monsters, pitiless, conniving and murderous.
Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde: The story of a radical doctor whose experiments lead him to the discovery of a destructive potion that transforms him into a hideous creature of unbridled emotions.
