Dolls (1987)

The cover art and the director’s name (Stuart Gordon) tell you all you need to know about this flick. The only real surprise is how funny it is. It takes a while for the murderous dolls to wake, but once they do there’s lightning, blood, stalker camera angles and Harryhausen-esqe stop motion. If the budget had allowed for it, more deadly Doll action would've been most welcome because it’s crazy good fun.
