[box] “Some werewolves are hairy on the inside.” ― Stephen King, Danse Macabre[/box]
Creepy dolls are always a plus in a horror movie.
Murder victims are piling up in London. All of them are found in grisly positions accompanied by a doll resembling the deceased. Scotland Yard is on the case. It develops that all were members of a Commission that falsely convicted an accused Nazi war criminal.
I found this thing rather dull. It has a boffo ending but one that doesn’t come as a surprise.
