    Lame!!

    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.

    watch Chucky instead

    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.

    Slight improvement

    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.

    Just Too Cheesey

    Just not good. Not very original and I think even a documentary about Robert The Doll is scarier. Bad effects among other things just come off as negative. Since I know quite a bit about the real Robert The Doll I didn't find it very impressive.

    Not as much as some would lead you to believe.

    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.

    • Trivia
      In the real life case Robert Eugene Otto (Gene) was first given Robert the Doll in 1906, when he was just six years old, by an angry Bahamian servant with an interest in black magic and voodoo. It was rumored that the gift was the servant's revenge for being mistreated by the Otto family. Eugene Otto kept Robert by his side until his death in 1974. It is rumored that Otto's wife, Anne, was driven insane by her husband's lifelong devotion to the doll.
