The Curse of Robert the Doll

Literally nothing to get you invested in the movie. The story is aimless and boring, the characters acting is stiff and dull. Like they were filming a school project.

The so called "cursed" doll looks like a bad paper craft and looks like someone awkwardly "playing dolls" with a child in every scene.

Would also like to point out that for 2016 the SFX are.. abysmal. Like I'm pretty sure an actual child could make better looking blood/guts with tissue paper and red paint.

I could complain for hours but not even worth it.

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.

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.

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.

A young woman takes a job on the night shift in a small curio museum. When her coworkers' bodies begin piling up, the prime suspect is one of the displays, a hideous doll which is purported to be possessed.

Very loosely based on a real story (relocated from early 20th century Florida to contemporary Britain), the original "Robert" was a tedious movie, paced at the speed of evolution, with characters who behaved idiotically and cheaper effects than the worst of the Charles Band killer-doll flicks. This time around, the pace is a little better (though it still takes far too long to get going), the characters are slightly more likable (a returning cast member steps up their game and the rest of the performances are decent) and the effects are... well, about the same. Frankly, it's a case of been there, done that, seen it - and much better. But sadly, I've also seen much worse. The biggest problem with these films is that suspense isn't handled well, it's draaaaagged out to the point of boredom and the payoff generally sucks.

It's sort of a shame that this trilogy (a third film is slated to be released next year) has been so painfully mediocre, cuz it's kind of disrespectful to the real Robert, who deserves a more faithful telling of his bizarre tale. Still, this sequel's a few rungs above the original, so perhaps the third film might actually be good.
