·35 min·3 clips
Matt reveals that 1993's 'Dollman vs. Demonic Toys' is under an hour and reuses clips from other movies.
The episode opens with the hosts introducing 'Dollman vs. Demonic Toys', a 1993 film from Full Moon Pictures that combines characters from previous releases like 'Demonic Toys' and 'Bad Channels'. They note the movie's short 52-minute runtime and its reliance on clips from other films. The hosts express personal fondness for the Demonic Toys, particularly Jack Attack, but criticize the declining quality of later entries. They recap the plot, starting with Judith from 'Demonic Toys' monitoring a warehouse where a drunk man's blood resurrects the toys. The discussion highlights the introduction of a new toy, Army Man, and the inclusion of Nurse Ginger from 'Bad Channels', with a behind-the-scenes explanation for why her character was swapped from a teenager. The hosts react to Judith's quick death, which negates the previous film's storyline involving her unborn child. They analyze the film's production, noting the elaborate miniature sets built for the tiny characters and how this likely strained the budget. The conversation turns to uncomfortable elements, such as Baby Oopsie Daisy's creepy dialogue, but finds humor in the giant doll costume. The hosts share memorable quotes, like Dollman's line 'Exterminator's here', and compare the film to other Full Moon releases, marking it as a decline in quality. They shift to recommending other horror sequels, with Matt choosing 'Puppet Master 2', Scott picking 'Ghoulies 2', and Kyle selecting 'Child's Play 2'. The episode includes promotions for the hosts' side projects, such as Kyle's Free Blockbuster and Matt's YAOK podcast. They also discuss recent media recommendations, like the movie 'Cuckoo' and the Netflix show 'Nobody Wants This'. The episode closes with a reminder to subscribe and support the podcast.
