Remake in the works


New Line Cinema brought the rights and is making a remake of this wonderful movie.

I do hope you're joking. This movie SHOULD NOT be re-made. Some things should just be left alone. "Black Devil Doll From Hell" is one of them.

Fwiw, I would pay BIG BUCKS* for the original dummy used in the movie.

*If I had big bucks, that is, hahaha.

If I could find a good replica of Paul Winchell's Jerry Mahoney dummy, I would buy it. I'd paint it black and put a cornrow wig on it. Oh wait, isn't that what Chester N. Turner did? HAHAHA (Yes, folks, it's Jerry Mahoney* -- NOT Howdy Doody. Get your puppets straight!)

*You doubt me? Here's a pick of the Jerry Mahoney dummy. http://tonova.typepad.com/thesuddencurve/images/paulwinchell.jpg
Jerry's on the left, ventriloquist Paul Winchell is in the center and Knucklehead Smiff is on the right.

I just love this movie! Finally got it on DVD. *cough* bootleg. ;-) From True Gore Video. http://www.rustedrare.com/home.html
