«Enough to cause Vincent Price to spin in his grave, this erotic updating of
the 1953 Price 3-D shocker isn't quite as awful as its title would indicate.
Considering the constraints imposed by the softcore genre, this thriller isn't a
completely flaccid effort. On graduation day at Midville College, senior Josie
(Josie Hunter) is notified of her grandfather's death. She inherits his
reportedly haunted wax museum and goes to check it out with her close friends
Star (Jacqueline Lovell), Andy (Eric Acsell), and Pete (Everett J. Rodd), who
secretly loves Josie. They discover that Josie s grandfather was about to
feature a display of classic lovers at the museum. The four move into an
apartment attached to the museum, and each in their turn encounters a hooded
figure who wields a strange amulet. Star places the amulet on the figures of
Cleopatra and Mark Antony, which then come to life and make love. Josie refuses
to believe her, but later Andy has a similar experience. After a visit from an
opponent of the museum, Angela Wingate (Elizabeth Kaitan), the quartet discovers
that Josie's grandfather owed $27,000 to the bank, which they have only a month
to repay. Meanwhile, Andy and Pete both witness the statues of Romeo and Juliet
coming to life. That night, the hooded figure places the amulet on Josie and she
seduces the lovelorn Pete until the amulet falls off and she awakens as if from
a trance. They capture the hooded figure, who turns out to be a mute woman who
loved Josie's grandfather. She reveals that the amulet's powers can save the
museum and gives Star a personal erotic tour by bringing two female figures to
life; the quartet of women proceed to have sex. Josie, Star, Andy, and Pete
restore the museum; a sell-out crowd, including Angela Wingate, is impressed by
the startling wax figures, which come to life and have sex in front of their
eyes. Produced on a slightly higher budget than the average adult film, The
Exotic House of Wax is clearly intended as a more
"respectable" alternative to hardcore product. The film strives to present a
(somewhat) sensible scenario. ...».
