I should have known better than to watch another low-budget indie horror film like this... for every good one there's 10 that aren't worth your time or money, and this is one of them. Whilst I've seen far worse, this was seriously boring, extremely bland and for a horror movie, rather tame.The first few scenes are promising but ultimately the movie fades into yet another generic, forgettable horror film that has already been done hundreds of times before. The acting isn't great (but that's hardly a surprise) and the plot is weak and lacks conviction - it felt like a half-hearted attempt at coming up with a scary story.Very few positives and plenty of flaws. 'Worry Dolls' is nothing new and exactly the sort of film you'll forget you even watched within a few days of viewing.

A by the numbers horror where a bunch of cursed worry dolls get into the wrong hands making them become possessed and violently kill whoever is around them.I seen this under the title Worry Dolls and I thought Charles Band would be behind this somehow. Luckily he wasn't but then the film wasn't much better then something he would do. The first few minutes rock in this film with a psycho jamming a four foot drill bit through someone's head with tons of blood flying everywhere. Then the rest of the film lacks in comparison. It was cheese that the dolls were put on strings and then all someone had to do was put it on making them insta rage zombie. Skip this one unless you have a friend in the cast.

I was going to give this flick a 4, but then realized I paid $6.99 on Amazon Fire TV to rent this shiz. Maybe that is what somewhat compelled me to take the time to review this movie. **Spoilers Galore*** The acting only becomes funny 3/4 of the film is once you realize how bad it's been the whole time. I encourage you to only watch this film if you are under the influence of substances. The casting was interesting. You have the butch cop side kick and the sorta dad-bod hottie cop dude walk around like they're in X-Files with their badges, guns, and handicaps on their belts everywhere they go. The male actor tries to go all Gerard Butler the whole time, but nobody is buying it. The killing scenes were not spectacular, which can always be somewhat redeeming for a horror flick with a poor plot and bad acting. Oh, and I forgot there are some possessed dolls. An angry black Guatemalan women goes completely cultural and talks about how they're worry dolls on steroids. This was unnecessary as it makes the serial killer's past role irrelevant. This movie wrecked a good hour and a half of my life. I would like not to type any further. In the end..I have read this movie to filth and written a troll-like review. Please enjoy the following feature.

A serial killer leaves behind a box of "worry dolls" after he is killed by cops. Basically, you tell your worries to a worry doll and supposedly it takes them into itself thus liberating you. Anyhow (yawn), the dolls (4 or 5, I believe) accidentally get distributed while in transit to police headquarters. Not a good thing for the new owners whose fears and insecurities become amplified to paranoia by the dolls.The good news: Movie could have been longer. But don't take this to mean it was a terrible movie. It was just a straight-forward, "nothing new or surprising" movie. Once you learn about the dolls in the earlier part of the film, your brain just coasts thru some bloody, but unremarkable deaths until the end where there is a little bit of the unexpected. Before I close, let me say this: A human being on fire is not funny. But I think that if in a movie said human is made to run a considerable distance while aflame....well...you know. I'm only human, folks! Love, Boloxxxi.
