Dolls. 1986.

Gordon and Yuzna team up with Charles Band, Guy Rolfe plays the old vintage toy maker along with his wife Hilary Mason, they play the perfect grandparents who won't say boo and offer cakes to anyone but hide a darker secret with the toys they make come to life and kill people. I have always enjoyed this little number, ok it may be 70 minutes long but its a happy 70 minutes of viewing.

Vampire Circus. 1972.

One of Hammer's vampire movies that didn't have Christoper Lee or Peter Cushing and didn't use the Karstein name or Dracula and like Captain Kronos fell under the radar and made a slow comeback. This is one I have always enjoyed due to the story line of a evil count being killed by the townsfolk, the village going through a plague and then a small circus appears to seek revenge on the townsfolk who killed the Count. Re-using the same set pieces from Twins Of Evil, this made it the perfect setting for a 17th Century town that is dying slowly and made it feel more atmospheric.
