On this episode, the Spoop Bois Aaron and Derek cover 1987's killer toy flick "Dolls" directed by Stuart Gordon. They talk about the role of toys as a childhood attachment and gateway to fantasy, the exploration of younger generations moving away from toys, and the strange juxtaposition of kindertrauma and adult horror through the movie. They also touch on the history of dolls and killer toy movies, how the plot is simple and surreal, uncanny valley with living toys, whether or not the sub-genre is genuinely scary, among many other topics about the film. Derek can remember every toy he had as a kid. And they remember Aaron!
