The Doll (Vaxdockan)

The Doll (Vaxdockan)

This listing is for the standard edition Blu-ray. The limited edition slipcover was limited to 1,000 units and is sold out. The two versions are identical, aside from the slipcover.

Klubb Super 8 is a Swedish independent research outfit/film archive/film club/film distribution company dedicated to Swedish exploitation Cinema that has been operational for almost 25 years, releasing films on VHS, DVD and Blu-ray. Klubb Super 8 also owns the subsidiary Cultpix.com, a global streaming platform focused on vintage exploitation/genre/cult movies from around the world.

The odd night watchman Lundgren lives alone in an old building filled with strange tenants. He falls in love with a mannequin in the shop where he works, and manages to steal it and bring it home. Lundgren begins to buy clothes and presents, believing that the doll is alive and talking to him. The neighbors become suspicious and react strongly to his sick inclinations.

A horror drama directed by the masterful Arne Mattsson and with a screenplay by Lars Forssell, a member of the Swedish Academy.

      Oscarsson creates a Christ-like figure whose attempts at compassion — helping drunks, defending the vulnerable, seeking love — are consistently misunderstood by an indifferent urban landscape.
