The Curse of Robert the Doll

Right, let's be honest, it's no Annabelle, but in this second outing, Robert is now housed in a museum, and of course causes mayhem when the new cleaner arrives.

I'm not sure why expectations from some were seemingly quite high, surely they must have seen the first?

It's low budget, it's silly, but it's not without some level of charm, I liked the accompanying music, it was definitely a little creepy, and atmospheric.

The acting, was decent I thought, some of it was good, some was average.

Robert, if only he could have been a little more animated, he was perhaps a little static, his footsteps were rather cute I thought.

I loved the atmosphere of the opening and closing scenes, and that security guard was very cute.

It wasn't bad, 5/10.

The story is played out some years after the first movie. This time with Emily Barker. A student who takes a night job at a museum to pay of loans. Unfortanly for her this is the new home for Robert the doll. After a while working as a cleaner, Emily starts getting a feeling something's wrong in the museum. she is not wrong.

I love horror movies and i was so scared for dolls after seeing Chucky many years ago. Unfortanly this movie is nothing like Chucky or the newer Annabell. The first movie was badly written. Slow going Forward. The characters never felt realistic when they talked to each other and when the doll was on screen it was so bad it made you laugh. This movie is not better. The characters are still bad. The doll still just look so foolish and the story is so slow. Nothing happens the first 25 minutes.

If you as me love horror movies with killing dolls. Watch Chucky or The boy instead. Light years better than this school project.

Literally nothing to get you invested in the movie. The story is aimless and boring, the characters acting is stiff and dull. Like they were filming a school project.

The so called "cursed" doll looks like a bad paper craft and looks like someone awkwardly "playing dolls" with a child in every scene.

Would also like to point out that for 2016 the SFX are.. abysmal. Like I'm pretty sure an actual child could make better looking blood/guts with tissue paper and red paint.

I could complain for hours but not even worth it.

Just not good. Not very original and I think even a documentary about Robert The Doll is scarier. Bad effects among other things just come off as negative. Since I know quite a bit about the real Robert The Doll I didn't find it very impressive.

I must start out with a warning of sorts. Don't lured in by this movie, which obviously just cashes in on the success of "Annabelle".

The storyline in this movie was pointless and really uneventful.

The characters were essentially one-dimensional cardboard cut outs that you don't care about or invest any energy in.

The doll itself looked like something that was made by someone in primary school. And it was painstakingly clear that all the scenes with the doll was just some person holding it and moving its arms or legs. it was all so very, very low key.

This low budget horror movie is not worth the time or effort. I actually sat through it to the end but drifted off two or three times along the way. And I actually found myself with my attention on the phone a lot throughout the course of the snoozefest that is "The Curse of Robert the Doll".
