Finders Keepers (2014)

Looks like Syfy attempted to cash in on the "Annabelle" thing, which means "Finders Keepers" is just a shitty possession movie under the guise of a killer doll flick. Every aspect of this thing is halfassed to the MAX...

The usually sexy Jaime Pressly - now sporting an atrocious butch hair-do, reminiscent of Jay North from the 50s "Dennis the Menace" show - plays a mom who moves into a big old house with her young daughter after separating from her husband. The kid finds a creepy doll under the floorboards of her room and it starts to badly influence her behavior, while sneaking out to kill those who mean to jeapardize their 'bond'.

Pretty standard, paint-by-numbers horror flick. Absolutely nothing new. No notable death scenes or gore to speak of (most of them die in explosions *snore*...) and you never see the doll moving around. At the end, some CGI ghost-fog appears and the kid's eyes turn black... Again, just typical, boring stuff. There's something about the former owner of the doll who has a few scenes wedged in there that are completely pointless and Tobin "Jigsaw" Bell pops up a few times, bored, reminding us that his career ended with the "Saw" franchise. So yeah, if you like dull horror flicks, you'll be in shit-heaven with this one...
