BURBANK, CA (October 20, 2020) – Season’s Screamings and Happy Horror-days! Just in time for the most spooktackular time of the year, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment will have you on the edge of seats with an all-new original feature-length horror film, Toys of Terror, on Digital NOW and DVD January 19, 2021. The movie is priced to own at $14.99 SRP for Digital, and $19.98 SRP ($24.98 in Canada) for the DVD. The DVD has an order due date of December 15, 2020.
David
and Hannah Cashman have promised their family a fun Christmas getaway, but when
they arrive at a grand, old house in the snowy woods of Washington and are
greeted by familiar construction foreman, the kids realize their parent’s plan
to make it a working vacation; renovating the place in the hopes of flipping
it. Alicia, the eldest, is annoyed but the younger kids are soon distracted
when, wandering through the creepy mansion, they find a stash of old toys in an
abandoned playroom and take to them instantly. Before long, they seem to be
inseparable from their new playthings, much to the consternation of their nanny
Rose who, along with Alicia, senses that something in the house is not quite
right. As stranger and stranger things start to happen, Rose and Alicia have a
hunch that there may be more to the history of the old house than the Cashman’s
are letting on. Can the family escape
with their lives – or will they stay forever in the crumbling house, never to
celebrate another Christmas again?
“Toys of Terror will grip you
from beginning to end with its creepily life-like toys and chilling plot
twists,” said Mary Ellen Thomas SVP Originals, Animation & Family at WBHE.
“Get into the holiday spirit and be prepared to be horrified the same time with
this all-new horror classic.”
Bringing the nostalgia of stop motion holiday specials - Toys of Terror stars Kyana Teresa (“Shadowhunters,” “Star Trek: Discovery”) as Hannah Cashman, Georgia Waters (“Siren”) as Rose Mathis, Verity Marks (“The Christmas Club”) as Alicia Cashman, Dayo Ade (“Workin Moms,” “October Faction”) as David Cashman, Saul Elias as Franklin Cashman and Zoe Fish as Zoe Cashman. The film is written and executive produced by Dana Gould (“Stan Against Evil,” “The Simpsons”) and directed by Nicholas Verso (Boys in the Trees, “Nowhere Boys”). The movie is produced by Blue Ribbon Content in association with Warner Bros. Home Entertainment and SYFY. Toys of Terror will make its broadcast debut on SYFY this December

A Terrifying Weekend: Making of Toys of
Terror
The 411:
I base all movie reviews I watch with my husband on whether or not he takes his eyes off his laptop and while watching Toys Of Terror he totally watched this movie never getting to his homework and that says a lot. Usually the TV is on as background noise while he does his homework and he has to get it done! He works all day and goes to college at night. He does not have time to watch TV but I received a copy and was dying to watch Toys of Terror.
OK...let's jump in. Toys of Terror wasn't award winning, there was a ton of loop holes for me. A blended family are going away for Christmas to a home they bought so they can flip it. It is literally a mansion and so much better then the house they are currently living in so flip the other house and move into this one. We also never see them working on flipping anything and only know this because when they arrive at the house. all the family including the nanny, are standing in a row staring at the house while the camera takes a long shot of their profiles as they discuss the house and we learn more.
The house is huge and their is a caretaker staying their as well. The mom knows this home was once a children's hospital and her step daughter and nanny research the home to find out the history.
The smaller children find a chest of old toys which eventually come to life and have an agenda of their own. A fuzzy bee, a flying dragon with a rider, a car, a monkey, a mask and more. The toys seem to be changing the children or are they? t
There was so much to find hocky about the movie.
The flying bee who suffocates the caretaker
The scene where the kids wake for Christmas and the toys teach them that crappy presents like clothing should be thrown in the fireplace.
The dance sequence!
The caregiver who thinks the kids have gone up to the 3rd floor and are hiding under the tinniest piece of paper and so many other instances
The scene where the toys try to toss the nanny of the railing.
The little sock the nanny find and the bassinette. This scene made no sense to me. Apparently the nanny lost a baby. Is the sock to remind her? Is her baby there? Is someone trying to drive her mad? I have no idea. There were so many moments I was scratching my head but in the end people die and one is left there to take care of the kids forever with them reading to the children of the hospital in the lit living room while the camera pulls out past the outside of the home, the living room light goes out.
All in all I love this movie and would totally watch it again and plan on it!
