5.0 out of 5 stars Scary as ever, 12 Feb 2009
By R. Scothern (Nottingham UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I first saw this film many years ago and still have an overwhelming fear of dolls. Its not that this is a great film as it isn't but the way the dolls move is just sooo creepy!
The part i will always remember is where they are all lined up on a mantlepiece with their eyes closed, then the lightning flashes again and their eyes are open, then when the next lightning flash comes they are all gone!!! Absolutely sends shivers down my spine.

Definately worth watching,

2.0 out of 5 stars Just a bit of fun!, 27 Jun 2007
I think it's fair to say that "Dolls" is the sort of horror film that you can laugh at, but it probably won't scare you.

The plot, the script and the acting are barely average (that's being polite), and it's a good two-thirds of the way through before you really get to see any of the killer dolls in action. The special effects and gore were probably good at the time - and even looked pretty good 10 years ago when I last saw this film - but unsuprisingly, they look very dated compared to the gore-fests we are used to seeing nowadays. Ok, it's not a fair comparison, but even for the 80's, the film feels low-budget and is 'atmospheric' at best.

Another reviewer said that this film is like a modern day Grim's Fairytale - and I must admit, that made me see the film in a slightly different light, because that's exactly what it is...

If you want a laugh, or you saw this film when you were a kid and you want to check it out again, go for it, but just don't expect too much!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Short and sweet, cheap and cheerful, 12 April 2006
By C. Quinn "totality denier" (County Louth, Eire) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This is a nifty little fantasy horror flick from 'Reanimator' director Stuart Gordon, one of the great lost talents of horror cinema. Following 'Reanimator' and 'From Beyond' Gordon seemed destined for Sam Raimi/George Romero style cult adulation, but lost his way badly. 'Dolls' is probably his last worthwhile feature.

It's simultaneously formulaic and surprising. Lost travellers, creepy house, evil slasher dolls -- you know the score. But Gordon directs with such pace that you don't have time to groan at the clichés, and the eponymous mini-monsters are realized with marvellous glee and wit. It's a bit like 'Toy Story' written by Rob Zombie and directed by Jan Svankmajer. Well, maybe not as deranged as that would be, but pretty good anyway.

I wouldn't pay a lot for what's basically a sassy B-movie, but if you can pick up 'Dolls' cheap I'm sure you'll be pleasantly surprised. Watch it back-to-back with 'Reanimator' and wonder what the hell happened to Stuart Gordon's talent. A crying shame.
