Horrors about dolls are not toys!

Horrors about dolls, mankind began to invent even in ancient times. In many beliefs, there are legends associated with these toys. For example, it is believed that if you give a doll a semblance of a person hated to you and hit it in a vital organ, the prototype will immediately have pain in this place. Remember at least a doll-voodoo or legends about them. There is even such a disease - neurosis, obsessive fear at the sight of mannequins or dolls. It is called "pedophobia".

The most famous franchise

The horrors about the killer dolls have become one of the recognized directions of horror (not very, however, common) after the premiere of the movie "Children's Games." It was then, in 1988, Chucky was born. By 2013, the franchise has already 6 parts. Now no one is experiencing a special fear at the sight of the red-haired ominous grinning character. A quarter of a century ago, this creation of the fantasy of Don Mancini caused awe, and not only in the children's hearts. The rest of the series were weaker. Not very helpful and the appearance in the fourth part of the life companion of the little maniac Tiffany (although Jennifer Tilly very much tried to make the image vivid). However, it is the saga of Chucky - the most famous horror about dolls.

Knock on an unfamiliar house ...

Even before the authors of "Chuckie and Company", the director of "Reanimator" and one of the creators of the curious series "Masters of Horrors" came up to the theme "horrors about dolls". In 1986, he made the thriller "Dolls". The picture begins quite traditionally for horror. Travelers are caught in a storm, and they are forced to ask the shelter of the elderly couple Hartwick. They live in a lonely standing mansion and are engaged in making dolls. Raznomastnaya six picked up: otvyaznye girls, a little girl and her father, bitchy (a la tale about Cinderella) stepmother, a nice guy. Knocking at home, they do not suspect what a stormy night they are waiting for. No less colorful and "the other side": ominous Parsley, soldiers, clowns, gallant cowboy. The continuation of the traditions was directed by Mary Liz, who in 1991 presented to the fans of the genre "Charming Dolly". In this tape, an evil spirit is no longer infused into a boy doll, but into an exquisite beauty.

Creepy secrets

Horrors about dolls are also "Bad Pinocchio" by Kevin Tenney. In this horror of 1996, the atmosphere of forcing the horror is most detailed and interesting. The puppet - an apparently harmless toy - fell into the hands of the daughter of lawyer Zoe. And this lawyer defended the son-in-law of Vincent, sentenced to death. A good film, although some scenes are clearly copied from the classic "Children's Games." Not for hire, but only on video in 1989 came out another picture, which became the ancestor of the franchise - "The Lord of the Dolls." In the plot, psychics learn the legend of the master Andre Toulon. This magician in his time created a top five unsurpassed dolls, murderers, each of which was particularly passionate about killing and the way people were killed. They were the Jester, Leech, Pinhead, Blade and Driller. The monsters were programmed to guard the eerie secrets of their "father".

Here they are, the horrors of dolls. The list would be incomplete, if not to mention the South Korean film "Kukolnik" in 2004. If you like Asian horror movies, look this slasher!
