SunnyHello Nice effects though.

CommentsXp Best movie ever!

Anoushka Slater While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Gary The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

darksyde-63508 I remember first seeing this movie as a little kid,and that the cover for it scared the crap out of me. The movie itself did as well, and was one of the contributing factors to my life long fear of dolls. I found it on DVD a few years back in a used movie store, bought it, and found I still enjoyed it. Along the years I lost it some how, and have been unable to find it again until I found and got a blu ray copy of it on Amazon Now onto the actual movie While I still greatly enjoy the movie, I notice now things about it that I didn't really notice when I was younger. First off, you'd think it was a low budget movie made by the likes of Full Moon Productions or Troma, not a big budget movie studio. Second, the acting is horrible. Again, something you'd expect from a low budget studio, not a big name one. Since this is an older movie, a lot of the scares seem cheesy and ineffective. For example in the opening scene where in a day dream, a little girls stuffed teddy bear rips apart her prickish parents. You can obviously tell that the bear is someone in a bad costume. But there are some fairly effects scenes, like one that's always stuck in my mind, like where one of the girls is turned into a living doll and plucks out her own eyeballs. This scene is also the cover for the old DVD version. The dolls themselves remind me of the ones in the "Puppet Master" series. Not that that's a bad thing, its just not that original of an idea. All in all, this is a good old fashioned horror flick that while it has its flaws, its still highly enjoyable.

SnoopyStyle The Bower family is speeding through the countryside until they are stopped by torrential rain. Their car is stuck and they walk to a nearby mansion. Little Judy Bower has an active violent imagination and Rosemary is actually her stepmother. Nobody answers the door and they break in. They are greeted by doll makers Hilary and Gabriel Hartwicke. He gives Judy the doll Mr. Punch. Ralph Morris (Stephen Lee) barges in with hitchhikers Enid and Isabel Prange. Judy witnesses the dolls attacking Isabel but only Ralph Morris believes her. That's before each one is attacked in turn.This is a well made small horror. It's always great to have a little girl in danger. Stephen Lee adds a little humor and I'm glad at least one adult is willing to believe the little girl. The movie could use more low angle camera shots. It could be scarier if the camera is at the little girl's level. The dolls are creepy and fun. There's a reason why dolls are a horror standard.

Claudio Carvalho While driving in a stormy night, the car of Rosemary Bower (Carolyn Purdy-Gordon), her husband David Bower (Ian Patrick Williams) and his seven year-old daughter Judy (Carrie Lorraine) get stuck in the mud in the middle of nowhere. The family is traveling on vacation and Judy, who lives in Boston with her mother, daydreams many times irritating her stepmother. They break in an old house and the owner, the toy maker Gabriel Hartwicke (Guy Rolfe) and his wife Hilary (Hilary Mason), welcome the invaders. While they are having soup, the driver Ralph Morris (Stephen Lee) and the hitchhikers Isabel (Bunty Bailey) and Enid (Cassie Stuart) also get stuck and come to the house.The old couple invites the guests to spend the night in the house. Isabel decides to steal the couple and Judy sees Leprechauns taking her to the attic. She tries to tell to her father, but he believes that she is daydreaming. Ralph, who has the heart of a kid, is the only adult that gives attention to the little girl. Along the longest night in the world, the toys get rid off those that are evil persons and only those with pure heart will survive."Dolls" is a highly entertaining horror movie directed by Stuart Gordon. The story alternates creepy and funny moments with witty dialogs, such as when the little girl explains that she is not afraid of the dark, but what is in the dark. The special effects with stop motion animation are great and the sets with the dolls and toys that change positions and faces are scary. This movie is better and better than the recent "Annabelle". My vote is seven.Title (Brazil): "Dolls"

ersinkdotcom Chucky and Annabelle didn't have anything on Mr. and Mrs. Hartwicke's terrifying collection of "unique" toys. Charles Band and Stuart Gordon's 1987 classic "Dolls" reminds horror fans what came first. It's the perfect film if you're looking for a means to help encourage your children to stop playing with their Barbies or action figures.A group of travelers caught in a fierce storm are forced to find refuge at the mansion of an elderly couple. The two live alone in the large house amongst their homemade dolls. As the night goes on, strange occurrences lead the guests to believe something besides the two old folks live in the dark old manor."Dolls" is rated R for violence, language, and adult situations. Surprisingly, there's no nudity to be found. There's talk about sex, but never anything blatantly shown. The film does contain graphic scenes of folks being carved up by the title oddities. I'd have to say this is pretty tame in comparison to what we're used to seeing now or even back then when it comes to nudity or sexual situations."Dolls" is the perfect blend of haunted house Gothic thrills and fairy tale frights. Its classic storm-drenched setting and creepy cast of characters guarantee the film to go down in horror history as a 1980s classic.
