“Of Dolls and Murder” – Documentary Film Trailer
Posted on November 7, 2010 in Trailers | 2 Comments
OF DOLLS AND MUDER explores a haunting collection of dollhouse crime scenes and our universal fascination with murder. From CSI and real-life forensics, to the Body Farm and a crime fighting granny, John Waters narrates this tiny world of big time murder.
Created strictly for adults, these dollhouse dioramas are home to violent murder, prostitution, mental illness, adultery and alcohol abuse. Each dollhouse has tiny corpse dolls, representing an actual murder victim. In one bizarre case, a beautiful woman lays shot to death in her bed, her clean-cut, pajama-clad husband lies next to the bed, also fatally shot. Their sweet little baby was shot as she slept in her crib. Blood is spattered everywhere. And all the doors were locked from the inside, meaning the case is likely a double homicide/suicide. But something isn’t right. The murder weapon is nowhere near the doll corpses – instead the gun was found in another room.

Reminded me of Hitchcock!
I’m really intrigued by the documentary, and it’s subjects. My favorite part of ‘amusement arcades’ in my youth were the ‘penny dreadfuls’, animated scenes rather like these with often bizarre themes. Far too little has been available about ‘the Body Farm’ too – I’ve seen just one short segment that held me for the duration. Fascinating stuff.
