Summary: Full Moon Madness
Review: Another example from the brilliantly warped mind of Charles Band. An assassin clown, devious midget, rock girls in a cage, a powerbent dominatrix and of course a shrunken head madman. Add all those ingredients and it's another Full Moon picture. Oh, and did I forget the three killer dolls? All Full Moon fans need this DVD.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: BLOOD DOLLS
Review: Full Moon Pictures brings you a film that has a deadly assassin who wears facepaint like a clown, a midget, an all-girl rock and roll band in a cage, a sexy dominatrix, a man who wears a mask to hide his shrunken head, and three killer dolls...it's BLOOD DOLLS! This twisted movie tells the story of Virgil Travis, a multi-millionaire who has created three little dolls that have deadly features (The Pimp, Miss Fortune, and Sideshow) to kill anyone who gets in the way of his plans for wealth and power. BLOOD DOLLS has serious "midnight movie" potential written all over it, and any horror fan should pick this one up today. The DVD edition comes with a behind-the-scenes featurette, a documentary on the making of the film, a music video, a theatrical trailer, and a blooper reel.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An affordable, funny title
Review: I avoided this movie for quite some time, wondering if it would have anything at all to offer. Just looking at the packaging and promotion made it seem as if this movie might be nothing more than a Puppet Master spoof, and that worried me a little. Still, it was a Full Moon production and I wasn't semi-certain that Full Moon wouldn't do that to one of their more successful franchises, so I cast my fear aside and bought it. Happily, I have to say that I made the right choice in the matter.
Blood Dolls was indeed a spoof of Puppet Master, but only to a point. It also went even further than that, going out of its way to help even the most reserved viewer have at least a little laugh. The story focuses around Virgil, an eccentric billionaire, who wears a mask to conceal the fact that he has a really odd secret. Still, this does little to conceal how truly twisted his sense of humor is, and how much he delights in power and acquisition. Added to this is an entertaining support cast, from his girls-in-a-cage band that he forces to play at will, to his biological inventions, the blood dolls.
It isn't something that should be taken too seriously, and is positively entertaining.
Everyone needs a little laughtrack to get them through the night.

Summary: I'm almost ashamed
Review: I'm almost ashamed to admit this but I loved this movie. The first time I saw it I thought it was a parody but by the third or fourth time it simply grew on me. Virgil is a billionaire with an anatomical problem and a totally out of control sense of humor. His henchman Mr. Mascaro is a clown who has no intention of making you laugh. Virgil has a live band held captive in the living room and has living dolls who kill people. Sounds ridiculous right? Well it is but Blood Dolls never pretends to be anything more than the B flick it is.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: FULLMOON FAN
Review: Sorry, but I can't agree with any of the reviews beyond one star. If Plan 9 From Outer Space is considered the worst movie of all time, then Blood Dolls has to be a very close second. Now I'm a huge fan of Full Moon Pictures and will continue to be so, but if Charles Band can aesthetically justify the means on Videozone as to his reasons for making such a stupid, ridiculous and non-sensical flick, then I'm afraid that Mr. Band no longer has what it takes to make a good, or at least decent, horror movie. There was no need or justification of an all-female band held captive and forced to do the bidding of Virgil to simply play music; the role of the dolls, at best, were minimal; and the plot was simply stupid, forced and over contrived with flawed, foolish and unbelieveable characters such as a dominatrix, a sidekick killer clown ..., a masochist--absolutely foolish in all aspects. Please bring back the imagination that created such great Full Moon pictures such as Shrieker and the Puppet Masters, and my absolute favorite, which was created in 1995, the unedited version of Castle Freak with Jeffrey Coombs. ...

Summary: Where do i find the music?
Review: The movie was "interesting" it takes some getting used to, u just have to laugh with it. I've been trying forever to track down the band that does the song "pain" but I can't figure out who sings it. the music video says "blood dolls" but nothing shows up on them as being a real band...

Summary: a great horror/humor combo
Review: This one went surprisingly deep on the philosophical banter between the protagonist and antagonist. But it was no mere head-to-head talkie. The music was astonishingly good, the suspenseful action lent a continuing air of suspension and tension that gave you the creeps, and the script was a twist if Nietzsche meets the Twilight Zone. The babes were hot and sassy and the relationships complicated like the taste a well aged wine. If you don't like this movie, you probably don't like to have fun with horror and should seek your thrills in more somber chillers. The clown! William Burns brought levels of sophistication to his role. His character was a spiritual man, you see. The story's message might offend the devoutly religious. Too bad. Hidden talent showed up in this yarn. The girl band coulda been a contender. The lead actress in the movie leaves you begging for more. Literally.
