The dummy is scarier then hell!
I have to admit, I never could really watch this entire movie. You see, when I was a kid (about eight years old) the ads for this movie on TV scared the you-know-what out of me. The ad consisted of a close-up on the dummy's face, and he would say these really horrible "Roses are red, violets are blue..." type poems. For at least a year afterwards, I would look under the bed before I went to sleep to make sure that dummy wasn't there. I've tried to watch the movie a few times since, but a deep terror grips my heart when I see that dummy! I could never sit through the whole thing. A friend of mine compared my fear of the dummy to his fear of the chauffer in the movie "Burnt Offerings", another movie which I haven't seen. The dummy is sure scary, though! Does anybody remeber these Ads?
