This is the stuff of nightmares.

My distaste of creepy little dolls is well known, but the idea of life size companion robot dolls is apt to make me run screaming from the room.

I think it goes without saying I will not be running out to see this film anytime soon.
Or ever.
.
The full body scenes in the movie are played by a 12 year dancer, but all the others are of this bizarre, freakishly realistic horror of a doll.

Reptilian.
Isn’t that what everyone looks for in a doll companion?

Freak out! Of the most horrible kind.

“Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep” is a great book by Philip K. Dick. Then Hollywood ruined it by turning it into “Bladerunner”!

I’m with you, creepy dolls are not my thing. But what’s funny (and yet not) is that this doll M3gan and Chucky have been going at each other on Twitter. It’s down right hilarious, as far as dolls fighting to see who’s the scariest and creepiest that is. I will never see either of these ass-hat dolls in films, I’d sooner take a baseball bat with spikes and nails in it to both of them! I mean hasn’t anyone seen iRobot?!? Come on people!!

What about Marvin the Paranoid Android from Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. Nothing to be afraid of there – he’d happily(miserably?) leave you alone if you weren’t keen on ‘droids.

I don’t get chucky. He’s a doll with a kitchen knife. Put on a pair of welding gloves, pick him up and nail his sorry ass to the wall. Then you can punch him whenever you get mad about something and listen to his angry, hollow threats.

I see a lot of films when they open, but this one wasn’t of interest. I figure if you make a movie like this you gotta give me all the violence. When I saw it was PG-13, I knew that wouldn’t be the case. I enjoy films which leave horror to the imagination, but to interest me in a robot doll you gotta show me all of its mayhem. That being said, I did see where they might release an unrated version. Maybe I’ll give that a go from home, where by the way there will never be any robots. I don’t trust them.😁

We have a google wi-fi router thingie. I also have an android phone( An unfortunate name). If you say “Hey Google” when they are both within earshot, they both answer. There’s a little bit of lag, so it sounds like over separated stereo. That’s where I draw the line. I see ads for security systems that have automatic door locks. No thanks, I’ll lock myself in.

Like many others above, this is not my cup of tea. I wonder if the goal of the uber riche is to get rid of us plebs and have these things hanging around instead.
A girl I went to school with collects dolls. I reckon they’re all a bit freaky, even when they’re not meant to be.
