Playing with Dolls: Bloodlust

I don't even want to waste time and energy to review this awful film, sufficed to say, the acting was bad, the script terrible, the whole thing terrible, i skipped through most of it, and discovered that at the end, instead of having an ending, its just ends, almost like they ran out of money to shoot the final scenes, just ends,mid-scene, just ends. Again, awful film, predictable dirt. I have to have a minimum of ten lines apparently to review, anywho as i was saying, do not watch this, unless you like terribly bad horror, bad acting and the like, I feel almost bad for the actors who may have thought they were doing something presentable, though as soon as they read the scripts they should have known not to do it. Also one girl was totally just cast for her huge breast implants, and when she takes her bra off we see it was a botch job, just awful.

The film starts off strong by having the worst actors ever and a very campy plot. It was really entertaining in that aspect. However, it just rushes to end, not even putting in any effort to wrap it up properly. The crappy ending seems like a last ditch attempt to make sure that they did waste your time.

This is not so much a sequel as part of a franchise. Instead of having a lone damsel being terrified, tormented and tortured by a mysterious psychopath, we start with four "contestants" - two male and two female. They are secreted in an isolated luxury cabin and told the one who survives until the end will win a million dollars with a lot more and fame to follow. It is fair to say that none of the group expected the word survive to be taken too literally, and one by one they are picked off.

The plot is fairly predictable, especially if you are unfortunate enough to have seen the previous offering, but sadism, gratuitous maiming and murder can only carry any film so far. The real tragedy of "Playing With Dolls..." is that the man behind it has missed his true vocation; Rene Perez also composed and performed its vastly superior soundtrack.

just watched this movie expecting it to be like one of the classic 70s horror movies as advertised on the DVD sleeve and enjoyed it tongue in cheek up to the finale, yeh some of the characters seemed underdeveloped and the main protagonist history was unexplained but the main thing that pee-ed me off was in the final part the film seemed to run out of steam and was cut off in the final minutes leaving a very unsatisfying and abrupt end as if the creaters of this had run out of ideas HOW TO END THIS AND GAVE UP, watchable until the end, don't watch this unless you enjoy scratching your head and wondering why you spent £6 quid in Asda.

This is my first review (and probably my last on IMDb). I don't typically take the time to write written reviews because 1. what weight does my opinion hold and 2. every opinion on anything subjective should be taken with a grain of salt. However, after watching this movie I felt compelled to say something. I am a horror fanatic. I love horror (specifically 80's horror films and B horror films). The cheesier, the better. That being said, this movie was a travesty in film making. This is, by far, the worst acted film I've ever seen. The audio was awful, as if they had only one boom mic for the entire room in every shot so some of the lines were completely inaudible and others were as if someone was screaming in your ear. There was absolutely zero plot development. No character development. One of the worst scripts I've ever sat through. Nonsensical event/line and another. I just don't know where it stops. Everything about this film is horrible. It almost seems as if somebody made a bet with somebody who had no experience in film saying "I bet with $20,000 you couldn't write, produce or direct your own film". Normally, I'm a very forgiving critic but this is one special film. Avoid it at all costs. I wish I could get that 60+ minutes back from my life but unfortunately that's impossible. Oh, and the ending? I won't spoil it but suffice to say it ends mid-shot of the climax (for whatever reason) as if they ran out of film and said "Oh well we've got enough, that's a wrap people". Rene Perez should be banned from ever doing anything in show business ever again.
