Demonic Toys

A botched bust on a pair of arms dealers inadvertantly leads to the raising of a sixty-six-year-old demon with the power to bring toys to life as his personal minions. The demon is looking for a body to inhabit so he can increase his powers, and it just so happens that one of the police officers is pregnant with the ideal host. As the murderous toys close in on their victims, the officer must not only fight for her life, but for the soul of her unborn child. "demonic toys" is a very entertaining horror gem! The special effects and toys look quite creepy (I love oppsie daisies and the jack-in-the-box) and it has a good sense of (unintentional, most of the time)humor. Highest recommendations!

As a fan of Full Moon pictures, this movie could have been a little better. Although it is a fun movie to watch. The characters are so cheesy this movie can't possibly be dissapointing. The toys look ridiculous but are funny none the less. I like the line uttered my Oopsie dasiy baby when kicked in the face. "Bummer!" If you like cheesy movies, then get this movie, cuz it can't get any more cheesier.

"Demonic Toys" is a curious mixture of gore and cheesiness - in about equal measures. In fact, this film epitomizes cheesiness: stupid plot, uneven effects, mostly terrible acting (save for leading lady Tracy Scoggins, who is too awesome-looking for her acting to matter anyway), and dialogue laced with lame puns ("You messed up my make-up"!). But the gore is pretty extreme and over-the-top (the dolls rip off huge chunks of flesh from the faces of their victims). It's a bad film, but tolerable IF you're in the right mood.....(*1/2)

"Demonic Toys" is another wonderful, low-budget offering of horror hokum from Charles Band's Full Moon studio.

A combination of slightly over-the-top performances (Bentley Mitchum sounds like Bill Paxton's Hudson from "Aliens" when under pressure), some interesting special effects and a selection of simply wonderful "demonic toys" (the teddy bear and baby doll are inspired) result in 90 minutes of entertaining viewing. There's more of the red stuff than in most Full Moon features - gore-hounds won't be knocked out by the amount of blood and guts but there are enough scenes of surreal violence to prevent boredom setting in.

Fans of cheesy horror should enjoy this one. Its heart is in the right place and the film looks great - very dark and atmospheric.

The effective score by the always reliable Richard Band is the icing on the cake.

I am a big fan of tacky sounding horror films and thus when I saw this on DVD on the cheap I thought I had to buy it, so I did.

The plot is simple two cops are trying to catch two criminals outside of a toy warehouse. The plan doesn't go as they expected and one of the cops is killed, the two criminals get inside the warehouse although one is injured. The policewoman (Scoggins) follows them in. She catches one but the other manages to get away from her but he stumbles across a Satanic symbol which he manages to 'awaken'. Then you get the kid (Cerny) and a bunch of possessed toys. Oh and a security guard, a delivery boy and a teen runaway in a factory of evil toys.

Strangely for this type of film the acting isn't all that bad I thought Scoggins was pretty good as Judith Gray. The kid of course being a demon disguised as a weirdly bright-eyed boy isn't scaring anyone any time soon. The effects are a little out-dated as the film is over 10 years old now. The film in all is actually quite entertaining you have a bad-ass foul mouthed doll called Baby oopsie-daisy, the weirdest looking bad guy and the phrase 'do the nasty' uttered several times by said weird looking bad guy.

If you want a top-quality award-deserving horror film of course, you could guess by the title, this isn't for you but if you just want a little entertainment and probably a good few laughs then this is for you.

My personal rating 8/10.
