Is it too late to trade this in for coal? At least that has a practical purpose.
This does not...
In the Present (get it- it is Christmas time!), a guy finds a weird doll with a knife.
He doesn't throw it in the bin and leave, like a sane man.
He suffers from night terrors and vague fright that is easy to act out, but not actually explain.
He doesn't throw it in the bin and leave, like a sane man.
He's freaked out when the Elf is on the Shelf.
Did I just violate copyright?
To make a long Movie short, we get...
Did I just violate copyright?
Lots of arguing.
Lots of wandering around slowly.
Something about the guy seeing death as a kid.
The Elf starts to kill people...or so the Film implies. You only see like 10% of what is supposed to happen.
Who will die?
Will this make me want to go into the Bathroom to cry and think about better Films?
Ho ho horrible. I mean...I had to do that, right?
This one has potential. There are over a dozen Puppet Master Films, a few of which are good. There are what feels like 10,042 Christmas Horror Films. I skipped over like 6 different Killer Santa Films to pick this one out.
Too late for a redo!
Director Justin Price has made a living doing Films that sound like other Films- like a one-man Asylum Studio. Think I'm exaggerating? Alien: Reign of Man. The Mummy Rebirth. The 13th Friday.
The biggest problem is that they just didn't have the money/production/wherewithal to put together a Film like this. They use a CG Elf for one Scene and never again. You get terrible POV mixed with shaky cam. You get people holding a doll while a bunch of random slashing sounds are played.
When the Robert the Doll Franchise one-ups you, what does that say?
You made a bad Horror Film in the most boring way. At least there's not a Sequel...oh, s#*t.
A Film that had potential and just kind of sucked. I want these to be good- honest, I do!
