When I first stumbled upon this trailer I couldn't stop laughing at this killer toy going after folks with a knife. Let's take a closer look at:
Here we have a 35 year old man, stuck behind in his work life and love life, and then suddenly his parents tragically die and he's left to close up the house he can't afford.
While he is sifting through his grief and all the memories, he comes across an old childhood toy. But he has no more space for such things and needs to move on, so in the trash little Benny goes. Benny didn't like that...
Folks, I can't stress enough how delightfully funny and legitimately alarming this killer stuffed toy is - particularly when it's running around. I'm not sure how they filmed this but it's GOOD.
One could argue that this film is a deeper look into the grief of loosing your parents, your childhood, feeling like you're not good enough or haven't reached enough mile posts by a certain age, or another side of you comes out in self defense of these traumatic, confusing feelings ... or you could just enjoy this wacky, wild ride.
This one is just fun, the kill scenes are outrageous, and it's a pretty good pick for those who are not into 'super' scary films. In all, a solid chuckle of a film that makes you take another look at the raging youth still in all of us.
Best watched in a blanket fort with all your stuffed animals that no one knows about. Paris with pizza, sandwiches with the edges cut off, or your favorite chips.
I watched this film on Showtime or use the Find It! Watch It! links on Horror Habit's side bar to see where else you can find this quiet Saturday night feature.
