Since childhood I’ve been obsessed with puppets and dolls in film. As a young child I remember seeing the Twilight Zone Episodes The Dummy and The Living Doll and from that moment on I’ve tried to collect every film out there featuring dolls. Then in 1984 at the tender age of 14 I rented Chester Turner’s Black Devil Doll From Hell and I was scarred for life... Here is my list of favorites evil puppet/toy/doll films. (admittedly some of these suck ass and are guilty pleasures) All of these inspired our new film in one way or another:
Dead Of Night (1945)
The Twilight Zone: The Dummy (1962)
The Twilight Zone: Living Doll (1963)
The Twilight Zone: Caesar and Me (1964)
Devil Doll (1964)
Trilogy Of Terror (1975)
Let My Puppets Come (1976)
Magic (1978)
Black Devil Doll From Hell (1984)
Attack Of The Beast Creatures (1985)
Video Psychotherapy-Cable TV (198?)
Dolls (1988)
Childs Play (1988)
Puppet Master (1989)
Meet The Feebles (1989)
Demonic Toys (1991)
Dolly Dearest (1992)
Dollman vs Demonic Toys (1993)
Tales From The Hood (1995)

What The Critics Are Saying About Black Devil Doll!
“Black Devil Doll is a fucking triumph, seamlessly blending crass un-PC humor with cerebral artistry. The Lewis Brothers deliver one of the most original exploitation films of the new millennium, a singularly unique mix of brain and brawn.” - Art Ettinger, Ultra Violent Magazine
"A hilarious, over-the-top, sex-filled gorefest! Well worth seeing with an audience if you have the chance." -Esplatter.Com
"Black Devil Doll is an instant cult classic that you don't want to miss. Forget about the big budget horror films coming out this year because none of them have the balls that this film carries. One of the most extreme and wildest films you will ever catch on the big screen." -IcanSmellYourBrains.Com
"Black Devil Doll is a scathing, sleazy, seething shitstorm (literally) that will have blaxploitation fans singing hosannas, PC types screaming for blood, and any innocent bystanders in conniption fits. Movies like this make me real happy to be alive." -DreadCentral.Com
"Impressively unconscionable--and often hilarious--new low for sexual, racial & scatological bad taste." - M.V. Moorhead
"Black Devil Doll hits every sleazy, offensive, exploitive note in a symphony of brutality and debauchery. Get your popcorn ready because Black Devil Doll aims to please!" -ChainsawMaffia.Com
"Black Devil Doll presents a surprising and refreshing dedication to funny lines that work, interesting visuals, and great pacing. A nasty little opus shamelessly brimming with gruesome violence, graphic sex, and a ceaseless stream of the "N-word". I'm still recovering, and I can't wait to see it again!" -MondoCelluloid.Com
"Joyfully campy, gleefully offensive and one hell of a fun time." - Edward Yerke-Robins, Laist.Com
"Easily one of the best horror films I've ever seen. Not only is it original, it's also a whole lot of fun to watch." –HorrorFanatics.Com
"I had one helluva a time watching Black Devil Doll!" -The HorrorChick, TerrorTube.Com
" Not only is this a great indie film, it's a great movie period. Without a doubt the best movie I have seen so far this year!” -Goon, HorrorMovies.Ca
"You will laugh until you wet yourself. I am not kidding. Black Devil Doll goes where no puppet has gone, with gutter humor, exploding bodily fluids, and one of the most erotic car wash scenes you’ll ever see." -Sfindi.Com
Black Devil Doll is a relentless, abusive, and uproarious onslaught of rape, misogyny, mutilation, mayonnaise, mass murder, sodomy, toilet humor and racially charged puppet high-jinks…this movie delivers the total package to your door...and says “FUCK YOU!” when you sign for it. - David A. Szulkin

And interview with the director and some of the cast!
Five beautiful young women... one evil, murderous puppet.

Little did she know, this child's game would open a flaming door to hell and re-animate the soul of a recently executed black militant serial killer! With his spirit now trapped in the body of a trash-talking ventriloquist doll, Heather and her friends must fight off the unrelenting horrors and unspeakable deviant advances of a three foot killer with a taste for young flesh and warm blood. Can they stop the BLACK DEVIL DOLL?
