3.0 out of 5 stars for lovers of killer doll movies...but it's a bit generic, September 25, 2005

This review is from: Pinocchio's Revenge (DVD)

While this feels mostly like a made-for-cable-tv doll movie to cash in on made-for-theaters doll movies, it's still a fun one to add to your doll collection when you've run out of options such as the chuckies, trilogy of terror, dolly dearest, the puppet master series, and of course, DOLLS. The death count is very low, and the gore is really minimal, but there is some MAJOR full-frontal female nudity. There are some very suspenseful moments, but not a whole lot of impressive moving doll scenes. The little girl who acquires the doll is obnoxious and snotty and totally unlikeable--but what makes this different than your standard Chucky movie is that even the audience is unclear as to whether the doll or its young owner is the real killer.

This DVD is pretty no frills. FULL SCREEN, Dolby 2.0, with english or spanish language, and no extras. The film itself is a bit grainy, and not the cleanest transfer. But, it's not much of a surprise considering this isn't one of the most popular doll films. Get it if you must own every killer doll movie made, otherwise, rent it on a night when you're doing a horror marathon with some other stronger titles.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Horror, Surprise Ending, February 18, 2006

This review is from: Pinocchio's Revenge (DVD)

This is a horror film about a little girl who becomes unwittingly possessed by the soul of a demonic puppet. It isn't clear how the Pinnochio doll became demonic, but in the opening, a little boy, possessed by the same doll, is killed and buried by a man who knew the truth--and was himself executed.
The best scene is when the little girl is pushed to the grass, but the acting of her fellow classmates leaves much to be desired: Dakota Fannings, they're not.
When the killer is revealed in the conclusion, it will sadden you, and beckons for a sequel.
Excellent horror. I suggest it highly.

4.0 out of 5 stars Evil comes with strings attached, July 22, 2000

This review is from: Pinocchio's Revenge [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Pretty creepy. Brittany Alyse Smith did an excellent job of playing the little girl Zoe. She is kind of a cross between Shirley Temple and Audery Rose. I'm still trying to figure out "who-done-it", logically it doesn't make sense.... or does it?

The review above here that demands more blood and killing.... well if that is what you watch the movie for, you'll be disappointed. The nightly news is bloodier... but if you like an eight year old female Freddy Kruger OR was it wooden puppet Chuckie AKA Pinocchio... its fine.
