* SpiritualSuccessor: To ''Film/DoctorX''. The two films aren't part of the same continuity, but they overlap in genre (though ''Mystery of the Wax Museum'' lacks most of ''Doctor X'''s comedy elements), share [[ProductionPosse the same director and several cast and crew members]], and are filmed in the same visually-distinctive Technicolor process. In addition, both films include morgue scenes, wax statues (though they only appear briefly in ''Doctor X''), multiple characters portrayed as having disabilities (including [[spoiler:a villain who is more able than he lets on]]), and a plot based on investigative reporting.

* UsefulNotes/ThePreCodeEra: Though generally involving wax figures, there are some things (like bloody stab wounds and some... rather ''detailed'' female nudes) that they probably wouldn't have gotten away with a couple of years later.
