The Dollmaker (2017, USA) Review

The Dollmaker (2017, USA) Review

2017 horror short The Dollmaker packs a lot of creepiness into a short runtime. It starts in the opening shot, which depicts a casket containing a child’s corpse. The image lingers uncomfortably long on the screen as we listen to a conversation possibly even more ominous than the visual. A bereaved mother is speaking with a man who requests something the dead child wore, a lock of hair, and one of his prized possessions. In any horror story, nothing good ever comes of messing with a dead person’s stuff.

“Do not spend longer than one turn of the hourglass with him. Ever.”

The Riddler just can’t help himself. Intent on showing off his intellectual superiority, he leaves riddles behind that once decoded, spell out the details of his criminal schemes.

Inside the Batcave with Keith Mayo

Inside the Batcave with Keith Mayo

One of the greatest things about being a fan of a cult classic television show, is meeting people that share your interest.

Recently I had the pleasure of meeting Keith Mayo, a twelve year drill sergeant in the United States Marine Corps, retired maximum security correctional officer, and all around stand up guy.

“My collection is small compared to most folks, but that’s because of its narrow focus. I only collect items tied directly to the [Batman] TV show and then only those that depict Adam West and Burt Ward.”

Lords of the Cosmos #1

Lords of the Cosmos #1

UGLI Studios out of State College, Pennsylvania has broken into the world of science fiction with the debut issue of Lords of the Cosmos.

Created by Jason Lenox, Jason Palmatier and Dennis Fallon, this first issue in what will be an ongoing series is a remarkable homage to the comics and cartoons of the 1980s. It vividly depicts that age of conflict between noble heroes and loathsome villains, aided and abetted by their truly repulsive henchmen.

“CY-CORN. The last unicorn. Now more machine than beast. The great betrayer of his fellow magical creatures…”

Cesar Romero’s Joker

Cesar Romero as 'The Joker'

Cesar Romero’s portrayal of The Joker as Batman’s greatest enemy was memorable to say the least.

Known for his sharp wit and malevolent laugh, The Joker was constantly escaping Arkham Asylum and a relentless threat to Gotham City.

“Have you heard this one? It’ll *kill* you, Batman!”

Burgess Meredith’s Penguin

Burgess Meredith as 'The Penguin'

If there is one villain that is notorious in the Batman television series [and 1963 film], it’s The Penguin played by Burgess Meredith.

The Penguin was a master at keeping his motives a secret, and disguising criminal intentions through false enterprise.

“How was I to know they’d have a can of shark-repellent Batspray handy?”
