Toys of Terror

Creepy killer toys, Christmas horror, great acting, especially for a low budget effort and the same goes for the directing. It's written by Dana Gould, a passionate horror fan and an experienced writer. The dialogue may seem clunky in some parts and the storyline is (obviously) predictable, but it's still way more original than most Hollywood movies.

The stop-motion effects for the toys are GREAT, they're fascinating and creepy to watch. Very reminescent of the 80's, especially of the Full Moon movies like Puppet Master or Demonic Toys. The whole decor is also reminescent of old creepy "search and find" books of the 90's that I loved so much. Clearly nobody wants a doll with a taxidermized raccoon head, but it just works on the visual level and adds to the creepy campy fun.

It seems nobody knows how to enjoy good campy horror anymore. Shame on everyone who didn't like this movie. Clearly, you don't know how to have fun.

This movie had potential. But unfortunately it just goes safe and add absolutely nothing new. Old story without no fresh material or without a twist. Its so horrible acting and you can feel its all forced sentences and its just feels fake. The only thing I really appreciated was the old style of technic that was made for moving the toys, felt like a 1980s movie, which is much better than crappy CGI. As a swedish person I felt the most scary thing in this movie was the swedish Christmas song that was used. It gave me the chills, it was not suitable for this movie since it has nothing to do with Sweden.

It was difficult to give it a score as this movie made me laugh so hard... For a comedy I would give it a 7, for a horror a 2. The acting, the storyline and the special effects are bad, but nevertheless I would recommend it as it is in a way enjoyable to watch. Especially the bee toy deserves an Oscar.

Not well acted Not well written Not well produced Not worth the money and for a horror movie is Not scary... I actually have come away wanting a bumblebee glow worm.

The only disturbing thing about this film is not only did we pay to RENT it, but we actually sat through the 1 hour and 29 minutes of it.

Don't believe the reviews. This film is unwatchable , i didn't care about any of the characters , the plot was weak and the effects made mary popping look like a CGI master class.The only entertainment was watching the total look of dismay on my wife's face as the toys start singing or flying. waste of time and money .
