Blood Dolls is a 1999 direct-to-video comedy horror film written and directed by Charles Band. The film stars Jack Maturin, Debra Mayer, and Nicholas Worth. The story was conceived by Band (using the name Robert Talbot).[1]

Plot[]

Virgil Travis is a wealthy psychopath who lives in seclusion in his mansion with his dwarf butler (Phil Fondacaro) and his murderous, clown make-up-wearing henchman. Tortured and mutated as a child by a woman who put him through body transforming procedures, Virgil has an abnormally sized head. Basking in the suffering, degradation, and death of others, Virgil has already kidnapped an all-female rock group who he keeps imprisoned to satisfy his perverse amusement. He creates a trio of twisted living dolls (Pimp, Sideshow, and Ms. Fortune) to murder those who have wronged him; Virgil doesn't anticipate meeting his match and finding love, both of which come in the form of a woman who is even more evil and twisted than he.

The film has two different endings:

  1. After his new wife sees his deformed head, she is horrified, so the dolls attack her while Virgil has the house filled with poison gas. Ms. Fortune frees the rock group, who escape with the dolls.
  2. Rather than be disgusted, she finds him attractive for his evil and intellect. She then says that together, the world is theirs for the taking.

Reception[]

Will Kouf of Silver Emulsion Film Reviews writes in his review:[2]

Where do I start with this fucking movie? Blood Dolls goes the trashy route and does its best to shock and awe the viewer into liking it. It's truly a movie that will only appeal to the most demented group of people in the audience, which realistically is probably a large subset of the people who even give a shit about Full Moon movies. I unfortunately am not so keen on this particular brand of demented film, the "demented for the sake of being demented" variety.
