I'm sure I've heard an episode of Educating Archie.....laugh?.....well, no, actually.......
Then the movie's stupidity kicks into hyperdrive. First we have to sit through a heinous doll attack on Barbarella psychedella. See, she crash lands on this ice world and these two little brats show up and hit her in the face with a loaded snowball. Then the dolls attack! There's all these stupid looking dolls with metal teeth and their mouths go up and down and scary music plays as the begin their horrific assault. My heart was bleeding for Barbie as a perfectly good pair of fishnet stockings were ruined by all these tiny teeth marks. In any event, I was taken back to such classics like Devil Doll as these dolls did their thing. The whole time I'm thinking, "where's that Chucky fellow?" and wishing he'd show those dolls what a killer doll is supposed to be. Finally the doll attack subsides and Barbie is rescued by a real hairy guy that she rewards by screwing in the old fashioned way.

wasn't half so horrid as Michael Redgrave's take on the theme.
It comes in the 1945 portmanteau horror Dead of Night.

myf13 said:gncxx, I saw it the other day. It came over as a curious mix of fascinating entertainment and borderline nightmare fuel, but I can't really pin down what it was that left me feeling rather uneasy. I saw the QI episode which had Nina Conti on and that left me feeling the same. It's unsettling seeing someone (or several people) having a conversation with little more than a sock-covered hand and behaving as if it's a real person.
