Baby Oopsie

A woman, who gets picked on by everyone in her life, escapes reality by expressing her passion for dolls in a popular doll-oriented youtube series.

She often fantasizes about reaping vengeance on those who wrong her...but never takes action on those fantasies.

However, she get's a guardian angel in the form of a hideous doll- Baby Oopsie- which she restores, and gives a new body.

Sent to her by one of her fans, she keeps incorporating new mechanics into the doll, upon the arrival of each new package, from her mysterious benefactor.

Thus bringing Baby Oopsie to life...though, perhaps, with a few behavioural problems...

This is the first in a series of short films, released by full moon features, and produced by doll-centric horror director Charles Band.

The whole thing is made purposefully cheesy.

But that's part of it's allure.

The special effects are legitimately horrible...aside from the doll itself.

Plastic weapons; strawberry jam used as blood; and CGI so bad it's pretty clear they didn't even try.

So don't go in expecting a masterpiece or anything.

But prepare to be entertained.

Gets (much needed) bonus points for playing Subspecies on the TV.

4 out of 10.

'Baby Oopsie' does its best to be a tongue-in-cheek with its horror, making it clear from the outset that this isn't a film meant to be taken too seriously. Its lighthearted tone, while can be kind of funny sometimes, results in a lack of genuine scares or impactful gore.

It's about a lonely woman who repairs dolls for her internet podcast, but gets more than she bargained for when she receives a - pretty damn hideous - broken doll in the mail. Naturally, death and destruction follows.

If you're in the mood for low-brow horror fun, it's harmless enough, but don't expect too much. The film suffers from a script that doesn't deliver enough clever or sharp humor to make it genuinely funny, nor does it lean into horror elements enough to deliver any real horrific thrills. The effects are on the cheaper side and the titular killer doll doesn't even make its full appearance until about half an hour in, leaving the early portion feeling slow.

Despite these shortcomings, 'Baby Oopsie' has a few nice touches (plus I quite liked its ending!) and so does have a certain charm. It's not a standout in the genre, but it's serviceable if you stumble across it while browsing a streaming service. For those with tempered expectations, it's worth a casual watch.

Okokok hear me out. The story is meh, the characters could use some work, everything could use a little tlc but overall i surprisingly kinda liked it. I know full moon hasnt been really doing well with films as of late but this seems like a pretty good improvement. The cast is pretty decent, not great but not really that bad either. Although some of the scenes were cringy and very laughable, its weirdly cringy enough to be likeable. This seems like a cheap budget horror movie from around the 90s-00's but in a good way. It feels very vintage and like it would've came back around that time period.

When I saw a new Demonic Toys film was coming out, I had very low expectations. Full Moon hasn't had a decent movie in years, with the dreadful Evil Bong series and even their bread maker series, Puppet Master has had several interminable entries as of late.

Baby Oopsie Chapter 1 seems then to be the start of a new chapter for the company. Immediately viewers will notice production value has improved, with the film having multiple locations and a decent sized cast - something sorely lacking from the single-set talk-fests of the previous batch of Full Moon movies (or the recycled footage assemblies he's been dumping out).

The next positive comes with the doll design. While still a far cry from the 90's mechanical designs, it looks wayyy better than the cheap designs they've been giving us.

While Baby Oopsie is a long way away from being an actually good film, it is a huge step forward for the company. Full Moon fans will find enough here to enjoy. But if your killer doll genre experience stops with Chucky or Annabelle, it's best to leave Baby Oopsie in the box.

PS when will that Puppet Master videogame ever be released??

I have never seen such a legendary, scary and spooky film. This is a funny piece which you can enjoy with the whole family. I would rate it even higher than 10/10 but unfortunatelly i can not do this. A great movie, I recommend it for everyone and especially for kids!😀
