Plot:
At the party, Marie Morgan announces her engagement to other star, Tony Dean. Afterwards, Tony is jabbed with a syringe by a mysterious man. Hollywood,
land of movie stars, cocktail parties, swanky engagement announcements, and being stabbed with syringes full of strange drugs.
A couple of months later, at the wax museum, the guide shows the group the celebs including several that disappeared in the last few months including a soon
to be displayed Tony Dean. A couple of police come to visit Vincent Reynard, the museum owner. Apparently, a couple of years ago, Vince used to date Marie
Morgan. The studio owner, Max, didn't want Marie to marry Vince, the head of makeup. The good Max tosses a drink on Vince who smokes more that chimney. The
resulting fire BBQed half of Vince's face and makes him lose an eye. In the aftermath, Vince drives Marie away from him...
Never has there been a more trustworthy plastic surgeon...
Marie isn't acting since Tony has disappeared. Max wants her to get over it and get back to work. Later, Marie learns about Vince's Tony figure. She offers
to buy it.
Is 'my refrigerator is running?' But why should go and get it?
Later, at the museum, the guide notices one of the disappeared stars start to blink. He tells Vince about it who calms him down. Vince re-syringes the girl.
That night, at a night club, Vince talks with a dancer, Theresa. HE offers to make statue of her if she brings Max by the museum one night.
Max talks with a director that wants Marie to star in his latest picture. Max realizes that with a little changing of the script, they could include the wax museum
figure of Tony as a tribute and that'll bring Marie into the fold.
That night, Theresa gets Max to the museum. Vince shows the display of Theresa's head and the Tony head. He explains that Tony is paralyzed. He gets
Max. Theresa runs off and is chased before finally getting stabbed. Outside, the cops have started to suspect that Max is somehow involved in Tony's
disappearance and have been following him.
Vince sneaks Theresa's body in Max's car and drives away. The cops chase after the car. Outrunning them to a pier, Vince gets off and runs around in
the pier and evades the police.
The morning paper headline blasts about Max implicated in the death of Theresa, the dancer. Detective Haskell checks with Vince again about the strange
coincidence the model of Theresa’s head and how Max came by, too. Vince has painted Max's head into a clown. Haskell won't give up with his cop-sense
tingling.
Staking out the museum, Haskell sneaks into the museum before it is locked up for the night. Elsewhere, Marie comes to Vince's workshop and sees the
Tony head. As she settles for Vince to sculpt her face, he reveals that Tony is alive and drugged. He demonstrates that Tony only obeys his commands
as well as Max who is now suspended above a tub of boiling hot wax.
The other paralyzed figures start moving and head for the workroom. Haskell gets captured. Somehow, Vince falls into the vat of wax and everyone
starts laughing at him when the phone rings...
