Waxworks (1924) Das Wachsfigurenkabinett (original title) Not Rated | 1h 47min | Fantasy, Horror | February 1929 (USA) | 6.6 A wax museum hires a writer to give the sculptures stories. The writer imagines himself and the museum owner's daughter in the stories. The owner of a Waxmuseum needs for three of his models stories to be told to the audience. For that reason he has hired a writer, who after one look at the owner's pretty daughter, starts writing stories featuring the models, the daughter and himself. In the first, he is a baker, married to the girl, who is a little bit too much flirting with the customers, among them the wezir of sultan Harun Al-Rashid, who has just ordered his execution because the smell from the bakery is drifting to his palace, yet Harun Al-Rashid wants to meet the beautiful girl himself, while an angry baker is trying to get the Sultan's whishing ring to proof he's not a weakling... The second story is about Tzar Ivan the Terrible who likes watching people die together with his court-chemist. When he orders the execution of the chemist, the chemist thinks of a nice revanche, but till the revanche works, a nobleman is murdered, his daughter kidnapped by Ivan and her groom tortured. While writing the third story about Jack the Ripper, he falls asleep and dreams he and the girl are pursued by that serial killer.

The film received a restoration in 2019 funded by the German Commissioner for Culture and the Media (BKM) with new music commissioned by ZDF/ARTE. Since no original German version of the film survived, the digital restoration used nitrate prints of the English, French, and Czech language versions, as well as additional elements drawn from them. For the cooperative project of the Deutsche Kinemathek and Cineteca di Bologna, L'Immagine Ritrovata digitized the film in 4K resolution and restored it in 2K. The color concept, as well as the English title cards are based on a tinted and toned nitrate print from the British Film Institute (BFI) that served as the primary element for the restoration. The restored film premiered with live music as the opening film of the Berlinale Classics series, as part of the 70th Berlin International Film Festival, before airing on Franco-German TV channel Arte three days later.
