      Plot


      Virgil Travis is a wealthy psychopath who lives in seclusion in his mansion with his little person butler, Hylas, and his murderous clown make-up-wearing henchman. Tortured and mutated as a child by a woman who put him through body transforming procedures, Virgil has an abnormally sized head. Basking in the suffering, degradation, and death of others, Virgil has already kidnapped an all-female rock group who he keeps imprisoned to satisfy his perverse amusement. He creates a trio of twisted living dolls (Pimp, Sideshow, and Ms. Fortune) to murder those who have wronged him; Virgil doesn't anticipate meeting his match and finding love, both of which come in the form of a woman who is even more evil and twisted than he.
      The film has two different endings:

      After his new wife sees his deformed head, she is horrified, so the dolls attack her while Virgil has the house filled with poison gas. Ms. Fortune frees the rock group, who escape with the dolls.
      Rather than be disgusted, she finds him attractive for his evil and intellect. She then says that together, the world is theirs for the taking.

      Reception


      Will Kouf of Silver Emulsion Film Reviews writes in his review:

      Where do I start with this fucking movie? Blood Dolls goes the trashy route and does its best to shock and awe the viewer into liking it. It's truly a movie that will only appeal to the most demented group of people in the audience, which realistically is probably a large subset of the people who even give a shit about Full Moon movies. I unfortunately am not so keen on this particular brand of demented film, the "demented for the sake of being demented" variety.


      Documentary


      A documentary of the making of the film, titled Hollywierd, was directed by Penelope Spheeris in 1999, although it currently does not have a home video release.


      Music


      Blood Dolls was originally planned in conjunction with music magnate Miles Copeland, and was to be hyped with a soundtrack album and concert tour for the sexy girl rockers who appear as secondary characters in the film but various difficulties caused this plan to collapse.
      Most songs in the movie are played by the fictional girls band called the CAGED BABYS but other than the main score composer Ricardo Bizzetti there are no music credits at all. However there's an official music video of one of the songs called PAIN performed by Go-Go's guitarist Jane Wiedlin, Alex Lloyd and Rick Astley.
