1987's Dolls is a sort of modern-day retelling of the story of Hansel and Gretel. Only instead of a candy, this house is made mostly of dry-rot and mouse poop. You still have the two innocent children, but they are now played by a little girl (Judy), and a child-like adult (Ralph). The comparison breaks down here, because our witch is actually a husband and wife witch team, who are seemingly tasked with punishing shitty parents and criminal Brit-Punks. Long story short, some folks get killed by dolls, turned into dolls, and a small child fantasizes about the gruesome murder of her parents by a grizzly bear. So put on your silk pajamas, bake a nice tray of imaginary cookies, and join Matt and Tristan for what is arguably the best killer doll movie ever made, Dolls.
