KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
Motompa Go in cold, and you're likely to emerge with your blood boiling. This has to be seen to be believed.
filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Celia A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
jacobjohntaylor1 This is an awful movie. 4.1 is not a good ratting. But this is such an awful movie that 4.1 is overrating it. This movie is not scary. It has an awful story line. It also has an awful ending. Do not see this movie it is pooh pooh. If you want see a good horror movie see Child's play. Do not see this pooh pooh. Do not wast your time. And do not wast your money. This is pooh pooh. It is so stinky it stinks. This not a 4.1 this is a 1. This a big pile of pooh pooh. If I want to get scared I will watch Child's play 2. But this not scary. You have been warned. Do not see the pooh pooh.
TheRetardedVacuum I am a big fan of Full Moon, I think one of the best examples of a fun B-horror movie is anything made by Charles Band, especially his older stuff. I haven't seen a whole lot of Full Moon's more recent movies, but from what I've read, Full Moon seems to have gone way downhill. Now, I didn't think Doll Graveyard was bad, it wasn't great but it certainly wasn't terrible either.I didn't notice a whole lot wrong with this movie except for the characters. For one, most of them are annoying and unlikeable, and second, the killers are all dolls, no bigger than your average doll either, and everyone acts like their being attacked by man-eating dragons. There was one part in the movie where one of the girls tries to hit one of the dolls from across the room when she could have very easily just walked over and kicked him. There are a few parts in the movie like this.Oh yeah, the ending...SPOILERS HEREWell they bury the dolls hoping that the evil spirit will be released from them... well, actually they just put them in the hole. You think they would bury them but nope they just stand there and stare at them.END OF SPOILERSOver all this was a decent but disappointing entry in Full Moon's rapidly growing collection of killer doll movies. Especially since earlier the same day I watched Ragdoll, another Full Moon killer doll movie, which kicks the crap out of this one.
barnthebarn Tame but amusing further foray in to killer puppets for Charles Band and Full Moon. Short on action and on death scenes (though those included are fairly gory) this is watchable mainly because of the cast of hammy young actors and the barely over an hour length. Story begins with 12-year old Sophia (a bewitching Hannah Marks) playing with her only friends, some ugly dolls. Her father shouts at her about everything and anything (more extreme abuse is suggested but never shown) and demands she dig a shallow grave for her puppet friends as he is fed up with them cluttering up her life. She digs the hole and then as he helps her out she falls and breaks her neck. Thus Sophia and her friends are buried 'alive' together.Fast forward a few decades and another lonely child, this time a boy called Guy (Jared Kusnitz) moves in with his single dad and brat induced older sister. Dad pops out for a date and sister is forced to stay home and watch Guy. However she invites her two friends around (one a blonde slut, the other a very sensible, studious girl). Two dumb lads invade the house to play sex with the girls. They bully Guy and make their moves on the girls. Nice friend Terri is not impressed and joins Guy upstairs admitting that her heart melts when he strolls by. They both have a passion for puppet models and meanwhile Guy has dug up some dolls from the shallow grave out back. The dolls talk to him and take revenge on his tormentors. Can Guy break free from his new friends to save the girl who loves him? Shot on digital video the movie looks good, dolls are superb and well animated. Music is heavily criticised in other reviews but it never intrudes on the story and therefore merely acts as a backdrop to what is going on rather than - as with certain Puppet Master films - being vital to create tension. The closing song sounds very much like Charles Band's musician son Alex (from band 'The Calling') though apparently it is not him...but then writer August White is not Charles Band either ;-0
gthb I laughed harder at this movie than I have had at the past 20 comedies released, including all-star movies such as, The Wedding Crashers, 40 Year Old Virgin, and The Benchwarmers. Although I doubt the director of this movie intended for it to be humorous. There were very few times in this movie when I was scared... however at the end of the movie my gut was so sore from laughing so hard I had to forgive Doll Graveyard. First I must say that this movies comedic approach is present even from early... whether it was the bad acting, or the scene in which the little girl falls into a 2 foot deep and breaks her neck. Then the movie tries way to hard to incorporate a teenager factor. Some lines in the movie said between the male and female teenage actors should be taken out and put into a book entitled "Things NOT To Say On A Date". I'm giving this a 10 because... its simply a comedic classic. If you watch this movie with the intent of it being scary you will not enjoy the movie. If you watch it with the intent of it being funny... you will laugh the hardest you've had in a long time.
