We’re excited to bring you a first look at the brand new trailer for The Devil’s Doll, which was previously titled Worry Dolls. On top of that, we’ve also got the poster for the IFC Midnight film, which opens September 19th in select theaters, VOD and via digital platforms.
Honestly, this movie reminds me a lot of the concept behind Child’s Play, only instead of Charles Lee Ray trying to get his soul into Andy, this serial killer can jump in and out of bodies at will. I’m not saying this as a bad thing. In fact, I think it’s a very cool twist as there’s that slight element of Fallen added into the mix.
A serial killer’s curse unleashes a season of slaughter in the backwoods of Mississippi. According to an ancient Guatemalan tradition, parents teach their children to allay their troubles by telling them to handmade “worry dolls” just before bedtime. But when several of these talismans—which once belonged to a notorious mass murderer—find their way into the hands of unsuspecting residents of a small Southern town, it sets off a grisly wave of bloodshed.
Directed by Padraig Reynolds (Rites of Spring), the film was shot in Mississippi and was produced by Greg Haggart, Christopher Wiehl, Padraig Reynolds and Danny Kolker from an original script by Kolker and Wiehl. Executive Producers are Ted Ackerley and Greg Root.
Brea Grant, Brandon Johnson, Ashlynn Ross, Samantha Smith, Kennedy Brice, Naomi Kyle, Yohance Myles, Christopher Wiehl, and Kym Jackson star in The Devil’s Doll.
