Toys Are Not for Children

A very odd film, landing between bizarre psychodrama and lurid exploitation. I wasn't struck by the quality of the acting or script, and the plot jumped about a bit, making the protagonist's change in lifestyle seem sudden and forced. That said, over the entirety it generally worked, and we're left with a fairly bleak and unsettling study of a quite damaged young lady. I was feeling a bit queasy by the end, despite the lack of anything graphic. I sort of liked it, but it won't be for everyone.

This One Was Not So Good
