The Curse of Robert the Doll

The story is played out some years after the first movie. This time with Emily Barker. A student who takes a night job at a museum to pay of loans. Unfortanly for her this is the new home for Robert the doll. After a while working as a cleaner, Emily starts getting a feeling something's wrong in the museum. she is not wrong.

I love horror movies and i was so scared for dolls after seeing Chucky many years ago. Unfortanly this movie is nothing like Chucky or the newer Annabell. The first movie was badly written. Slow going Forward. The characters never felt realistic when they talked to each other and when the doll was on screen it was so bad it made you laugh. This movie is not better. The characters are still bad. The doll still just look so foolish and the story is so slow. Nothing happens the first 25 minutes.

If you as me love horror movies with killing dolls. Watch Chucky or The boy instead. Light years better than this school project.

Right, let's be honest, it's no Annabelle, but in this second outing, Robert is now housed in a museum, and of course causes mayhem when the new cleaner arrives.

I'm not sure why expectations from some were seemingly quite high, surely they must have seen the first?

It's low budget, it's silly, but it's not without some level of charm, I liked the accompanying music, it was definitely a little creepy, and atmospheric.

The acting, was decent I thought, some of it was good, some was average.

Robert, if only he could have been a little more animated, he was perhaps a little static, his footsteps were rather cute I thought.

I loved the atmosphere of the opening and closing scenes, and that security guard was very cute.

It wasn't bad, 5/10.

A very slight improvement over the first film. But I mean slight. The action shifts to the modern day, where Robert's now a museum exhibit, except of course he's still up to no good. The acting's still cringy but not quite so much, and the inspiration seems to be CHILD'S PLAY which gives this one more of a slasher film feel.

Probably like me you got suckered into watching this, by the brilliant cover art on the DVD but that is about all the quality you will find, with this 'Robert' sequel. It's a shoddy, low budget affair with bad special effects and even worse acting. The story of a cursed doll is actually quite tantalizing but this is just a very poor and dull effort.

This film is just as the title says, LAME!

As soon as the actor/actress spoke the first line, I knew what I was in for. Depression.

The scariest part of the film was a 5p plastic bag moving across the corridor. I would have had more fun with a dose of clap.

Please, for your mental health, do not even entertain the idea of watching this poor excuse of a movie.
