      great details

      I got up early in the morning and watched this. Although it is a bit scary and the plot is not new, the scene can be rescued, and the details are well done.

           Twins VS Twins
           For me who is face blind (covering my face), at first I thought that the two brothers and sisters were the two who were tied up when they were children, the same, one excellent, one ruffian, and two pairs of twins were playing are completely corresponding to these two roles. In the next plot, too,...

      destruction and art

      This is very similar to [Happiness, Anger and Sadness]! People in the same way! First introduce the beauty of these works, and then really destroy them, empathy is too late! It's all motivation, behind the ignition motivation is the beauty and trouble, and the rhythm is really smooth. The shape and setting of v should be taken from here. The business of the morgue is light, and it's a joke. Preservatives make corpses twitch, which is even better... That's where Igor's B-Class name came from....

      <Wax Museum Demon King> amazing, recommended!

      But I watched another five-year-old movie "The Devil of the Wax Museum". This movie is also the predecessor of "The Wax Museum of Horror", but the plots of the two are not the same, but the...

      great 3D footage

        Terrence Young plays a wax sculptor in the film. In an arson case, all his works were burned, and he was unfortunately disfigured. From then on, Yunxun Pais became mentally ill. When he reopened the Wax Statue Institute, he found that the wax statue was made of dead people...

        Find the original 3D Blu-ray disc. No subtitles, found in the shooter, simply adjust the timeline mix, the effect is great.

        In fact, 3D is not a new thing. Telephone Murder (1954), The Wizard of Oz...
