Ventriloquist's Week indeed...
Holy God.
Someone has taken my most frightening childhood nightmares and put them onscreen.
As if they weren't terrifying enough in my head. As if it wasn't bad enough when R.L. Stine put out no less than three incarnations of this nightmare in print form. As if one psychotic ventriloquist's dummy attacking you wouldn't be scary enough.
This movie has literally one hundred such dummies - come to life, running around, cutting people's tongues out.
Plus, it stars Donnie Wahlberg.
Please people, do not force me to watch this movie. The trailer alone gave me nightmares. I questioned my motives the entire time. "Why are you watching this, Tim? This is a terrible idea. Please stop. You can close the tab at any time. JUST STOP OH GOD THERE'S A HUNDRED OF THEM!"
That must have been a fun pitch meeting.
"Okay, I grant that a living dummy is scary, but Chucky's been done. We need to up the ante."
"How about more dummies? How about 10?"
"Make it a hundred and you've got yourself a picture."
P.S. I'm pretty sure it was a hundred but I'm sure as hell not going to watch the trailer again to fact check it.

OH MY GOD! That is the creepiest picture EVER. I literally wimpered. If there was a convenient corener, I would be rocking in it right now. I don't think I can bring myself to even watch a smidge of that trailer. I am already terrified. Dolls of any kind coming alive is NEVER a good idea. It is worse than creepy clowns.
puss.
