Mandy the Haunted Doll

There are quite a few horror films of this type around - very low budget and low on gore. As independent films go, this is technically very good with some fairly convincing acting. It isn't, however, very frightening. Dolls can often be unnerving. Mandy the doll is an unsettling looking prop, and efforts are made to give her a degree of apparent mobility; but she/it isn't quite enough to fill 90 minutes of film. I'm glad films like this are made, and it's unfortunate that anything with a less-than-stellar budget gets slated for that very reason. What are you supposed to do if you have an idea for a film? Realise that you don't have access to millions of pounds, so you don't bother pursuing it? Director Jamie Weston and the cast and crew (including briefly, Louisa Warren who has directed a number of similar projects) should be commended for producing something they are passionate about. My score is 6 out of 10.

The sets and sound quality were great, and thats where it ends. I can see how they saved the big money associated with special effects, by not having any. The dolls movements were not believable, and amounted to disappearing and reappearing, or turning whole body instead of just the head. Sometimes good acting can save a badly written low budget movie. Unfortunately the acting was also terrible. The last two causalities didn't have to die, but instead of exiting, one decided to look for something and the other was stupid enough to go help her. I viewed this turd on Youtube. Had i paid to rent it, id be pissed.

This film has absolutely no redeeming features. It is so badly acted that it's excruciating, the camera work is amateurish, the music I don't remember it. So I give it 1 star, giving zero wasn't possible.

I wish I could give this 0 starts everything about this movie was trash. The actors were horrible. In the tea party scenes one of the chicks was supposed to be dead and you can obviously see her moving. 😂 horrible horrible movie. Good try though.

Absolutely nothing good to be said about this offering,the acting was awful beyond comprehension,effects were worse,storyline ridiculous and the limited doll animations were pathetic,seriously,just don't bother watching this pure rubbish.

Good photography and editing, music often did not work with the scenes, motion of the doll ruined the creepy affect of the film. Wooden acting, and the action scenes in the end were pitiful. If it had been played in a theater it would have emptied the room in short order. Nice try on the film makers part but a very amateur film.
