    Ha!
    Yeah, I guess I didn't add the title.

     These are some of the last moments of 'Amelia,' the third short film of three unrelated-to-each-other stories, shown together as the made-for-TV film "Trilogy of Terror" - all three starred Karen Black. This episode has 'Amelia' being terrorized in her apartment by a small Zuni warrior doll. It sounds silly but it works very well!

    I did not see this.  The scene you posted is scary and even if I watch movies like this I tend to close my eyes when the sight of it is scary.  The most scary times are when you can't see what is scary.....that's when I leave the theatre.  ;)

    Yes!! I agree!

    And this is exactly what this moment entails -- we've seen what has led to this point -- we know where it is leading- - we never see what will happen because this is literally the end of the story -- but we know where it's going -- and we as the audience don't like it at all.
    :)

    I highly recommend the movie. But I know where you're coming from as far as closing eyes, etc.

    IT SCARED THE BEJESUS OUT OF ME.  TRILOGY OF TERROR AND EACH VIGNETTE WAS SCARIER THAN THE OTHER ONES.   Karen Black. Who doesn't remember her?  She was the darling of the Indies back then.  

    Here it is.  Watch it.  Don't say I never gave you anything.  It is good.

  • Lol did you ever see the sequel that was done in the 90's?  Not quite as impressive....the original is creepy for sure.

    I didn't see that, no!
    I vaguely remember reading about the sequel maybe, once I see your answer here.
    :)
    I can't remember if Karen Black was in that one, too?

    Me, too, Heeeeers Jonny!
    Definitely!

    And I appreciate seeing your correct identification of the ZUNI doll --  under Thriftymaid's answer I had written Zulu. I corrected it just now.

    I'm not sure I understand your answer but it's intriguing to me.
