A Killer Next Door (2020)
Low budget update of Rear Window
Not a bad little knock off of the Hitchcock film. Not the most original but for the most part well executed and the lead girl and actor who plays Bob Clark is like a demented Mister Rogers!
The Curse of Robert the Doll (2016)
Miles better than the original
After terrorising a schizo mother and her family in the original film the second outing for robert the doll starts with him taken out of a police evidence room and ending up in a crappy museum where he starts killing the security guards and cleaners. I didn't have high hopes for this one after the distinctly average first outing but thought there was a big improvement. This one is more of a run of the mill slasher but there is far better acting with two young leads who are quite good and entertaining characters like the museum owner and the cop. No effort to be psychological and the doll just slices through the cast one by one. So the story doesn't have much to it but the final ten minutes has the best scenes in both films with the Toymaker. Overall a much improved effort.
