Wow...there's a lot to unpack here. First of all, when we last saw this group of idiot dolls, they were both dying in a graveyard (highly appropriate) and Tiffany had just given birth *after* drying. It was bloody and all I remember is teeth. Anyhoo, now we fast forward to .jr being imprisoned by some twatty circus side show act. Junior escapes after finding his 'parents' on TV and heads to LA. Upon arriving, he manages to resurrect his parents into identical Hollywood props in what has become the finest example of 'kinda' breaking the 4th wall. Proof is in the Jennifer Tilly pudding because she plays herself.
Horror's newest power couple realizes they really do have a son...uh...-ish. Turns out I'm spending my Wednesday night watching 2 homicidal dolls debate the gender of their offspring because it HAS NO GENITALS. I never saw that coming. From there we get to see Redman eviscerated, Tiffany's doll bewbs, Glen/Glenda have a homicidal breakdown after melting John Water's face, and some doll cross dressing.

And I don't even think I've scrapped the surface of this movie. I'm not saying it's a really deep and compelling exploration into gender identities and society expectations. FFS, it's a bunch of dolls murdering the hell out of everyone! But THANKFULLY, it's not a dull watch. The inside jokes work well and really why not?!? At one point, nearly every horror franchise mocks itself and this took it in stride.
Thursday: A tasteful recreation of a classic American novel...
