Blood Dolls

How do you describe a movie like Blood Dolls? it's crazy, it's silly, it's gory, it's funny, it's complex and it's simple all at the same time. Now I'm a huge Full Moon fan I love B movies of all kinds and Blood Dolls really is something different, is it the best Full Moon feature ever made? Not by a longshot, is it one of the best? Maybe. There is so much going on that you dont quite know what to focus on, but it's fun no matter what aspect of the film you wanna focus on. It seems almost redundant to explain the plot and characters as so many other people have done it, but in time honored tradition I'll do it. The main character is an eccentric billionaire named Virgil who has recently lost a substantial amount of money after being cheated out by his business partners, he blames his lawyers for it and does away with them. We then have some other weirdos like a clown who considers himself out of character as a costume(creepy) a dwarf,(little person, sorry) a hot girl band trapped in a cage(though it's implied theyre allowed outside occasionally)and of course the Blood Dolls themselves which are a real rogue's gallery of freakazoids. The first half of the movie consists of him using his little friends the Blood Dolls to get revenge on his corrupt business friends,(yeah, yeah). This half of the movie is great there's blood being spilled and plenty of wacky things being shoved at us to keep things that much more interesting with all that imagery and scenes that come up.The second half is still good but not quite as much mostly because most of the killing is over with, but there's still plenty to look at. The antagonist(?) is Moira who pretends to be innocent and dainty with her passive husband who is Virgil's arch rival, but she proves to be the real brains of the operation and quite the crazy power hungry chick and manages to use Virgil's revenge scheme to her advantage on occasion. The latter half consists of her and Virgil trying to outsmart each other in this sort of deadlock that occurs, she even manages to gain the upper hand by capturing the Blood Dolls and seemingly is going to win. Then the film takes an 180 and takes a weird nearly soap opera direction that is not what you expect to see in a Full Moon film but fair enough. The ending(s?)is a genuine surprise and left me scratching my head saying "What the hell do I make of this?" I was genuinely not expecting something like that from Band.Charles Band takes alot of chances with this film, to be honest but I think it mostly pays off and though Blood Dolls is not perfect it's entertaining enough especially if your're already a Full Moon fan. The music is great I genuinely like it and I really wish there was a soundtrack available( I even read online that Band wanted to actually promote the band itself and sell cds and do tours and stuff, but he quickly backed out after he saw it would cost more than the movie itself, which is a shame I would've liked to see and hear more of these girls.)and the DVD itself is very well done, the picture quality is crisp and clear and looks really good for such a low budget movie, and the sound is absolutely perfect. The best thing though is that the DVD is LOADED with every special feature you could want there's plenty of goodies to check out after you're done watching the movie. Overall it's a good B-movie and that's all Blood Dolls is just a fun B-movie, but it almost becomes something more, I recommend it and you'll most likely enjoy it. Final score: for Full Moon fans 4 stars, everyone else 3.5 stars.

I'm not big into guilty pleasure movies. In fact of the 300 or so movies I own I think I have 3. Make it 4 now. After the first 20 minutes I was ready to turn the movie off. But I decided to watch on. And boy am I glad I did. It grew on me. It's so unique. It never takes itself too seriously while at the same time not taking itself lightly either. Great mix of horror/humor, and a fun movie I can see myself watching over and over. It ranks right up in my guilty pleasure department with Killer Klowns from Outer Space. All the characters are enjoyable and they all fit very well into the plot. It's just a fun watch. You get creepy, funny, serious, complex, simple all rolled into one. One of the few B movies that is enjoyable and gets better with each view. How can you fit 3 killer dolls, a shrunken head billionaire, a butler who wears clown make-up 24/7, a midget guard, a girl rock band electrocuted into playing songs of choice, a dominatrix female with superior intelligence and Type-A ambition, and a guy getting drilled in the heart with a drill bit all in one movie? Answer: Blood Dolls. Sometimes the stars just align perfectly. Thanks for the ride.

Caged singers who can't sing yet sing too much, a crabby guy sporting clown makeup and no sense of humor, a surly dwarf/butler, and a wealthy villain who needs a head-mask for obvious reasons. This static pseudo comedy/horror flick has several drawbacks, not the least of which is every character is reprehensible and unremittingly dull. When people are dispatched in the usual way, it's with an air of "who cares." Everyone is dour and nondescript. The mastermind is easily discredited as an idiot by the actions of another unscrupulous villain who beats him at his own came simply through stealth rather than intelligence (which everyone claims to have). The sets are few, the `action' limited, the plot is threadbare, the dialog lacks wit. I was thoroughly unimpressed with this venture by Charles (hit or miss) Band. It wasn't whacky enough, wasn't absorbing, it played out like a one joke premise that repeatedly kept hitting the same note, cue the band (that joke grew old instantly yet they kept using it throughout). Worse. They gave their movie two endings (probably because it was a tad short, yet oh so long, at a mere 85 minutes)! It needed to be goofier, more ridiculous, more sinister..........something, anything.It's not as if I don't have a lot of Charles Band's movies in my collection, I do, but this one isn't going to join them. It was okay for a single viewing; don't care to see it again.Bland by Band.

This is one of my favorite films from Full Moon. Its a quirky, fun film which stars Jack Maturin (Haunted Casino, Puppet Master 3), Debra Mayer (Prison of the Dead), and Phil Fondacaro (The Creeps). Its fast paced and well written for a B film. It has killer dolls, a clown henchmen, a rock band locked in a cage, and all other kinds of unusual elements. Funny, bloody, and weird, I just loved this movie.Plus the music to this film is really awesome. Some of the music was released on the Full Moon Archive CD collection and is worth checking out.

the movie arrived on time I gave it to my son and he loves it.!!!!! In the near future I will come back and look for more movies my son can't find here.

Like most full moon products Blood Dolls is a really cheap horror movie. It is also a lot of fun. The music is really cool, the acting is extremely cheesy, and the story is just plain fun. One of the things I like most about the movie is that everybody is bad. There are no real good guys in the movie. It is unusual to have no one to root for in these movies.

Blood Dolls is a full moon Movie where killer dolls come to life andkill people who are trying to ruin a rich man's life. but instead he creats3 dolls who stops them. if you like full moon movies you will like thisone.

I absolutely love this movie and its dark humor. Even own a pimp doll. Glad to finally have this movie on dvd.

When I first bought this, I was fully aware that this film was going to be a very low-budget, cheap flick and therefore expected little of it. And to an extent, I was proven right. It's all so cheap and bad with intermissions of pretty good music - but all of this is why I love it! It really grows on you, and this is why Blood Dolls is a go to cheer-up film for me and will remain a 'guilty pleasure' of sorts, although I don't really feel all that guilty!

Ich hatte den Film spannender und interessanter in Erinnerung.

This show rocks , the ladies rock band @$%# you lol , hilarious !

Mis à part la bande son rock, le film ne présente guère d'intérêt. Il nous laisse simplement penser à une pâle copie des "Puppet Master". Film à voir pour les fans, mais à oublier aussitôt...!

whats not to like!
