Playtime's Over In The Stills For "Doll Factory"

Fangoria has been granted behind the scenes stills for Stephen Wolfe's Doll Factory, a horror-comedy currently being shot in Houston, Texas. Starring Justin Herman, Nicole Elliott, Patrick Sane and Deke Anderson, the film tells the story of "a group of teenagers who inadvertently bring a bunch of baby dolls to murderous life and have to save their town from the possessed playthings."





I myself am a big fan of any movies with killer dolls, puppets, action figures, ventriloquist dummies, mannequins, etc. From Child's Play to Dolly Dearest, Tourist Trap to Dolls, Demonic Toys to Puppet Master-- if it has inanimate playthings stalking, slashing, and killing innocent victims in ridiculous ways, count me in.

Based on the stills and the concept trailer (below) Doll Factory looks to be a throwback to retro Charles Band (shouldn't he be producing this?) style killer doll movies mixed with your typical small town under siege plot. But, y'know, by killer baby dolls. Thus-- hilarious.

Listen, good indie horror films are hard to come by these days. Everyone and their grandmother have access to RED Cameras, friends, corn syrup, food dye, and Final Cut Pro, but rarely enough talent to maintain an entertaining feature length film. Even the smallest glimpse of Doll Factory's goofy and gory thrills is enough to turn my head in these perilous indie times.

Also, I really dig killer baby dolls. So sue me.




Extra Tidbit: I think we can all agree Jennifer Tilly (above) is a fan of killer dolls, too.
