VMI Releasing will be giving the slasher movie House of Dolls a cable VOD and digital HD release on October 3rd – but if you happen to be in the Dallas area, you’ll have the chance to see the movie a few days earlier, as it’s getting a theatrical release there on September 30th. To help you decide whether or not House of Dolls is a movie you’d like to catch in theatres or on VOD, we have the film’s trailer embedded above.

Directed by Juan Salas, House of Dolls tells the following story: A family reunion turns deadly when three estranged sisters return home to fulfill their father’s last wishes and collect an inheritance. The catch being they must work together to solve a puzzle that will lead to a fortune hidden inside a giant dollhouse. But soon they fall prey to a knife wielding-maniac with plans of his own.

Genre icon Dee Wallace stars alongside Meeko Gattusso (Euphoria), Alicia Underwood (When Androids Dream), Trey Peyton (Dawn at Dominion), Naomi Lopez (The Secret Life of Us), and newcomer Taylor Cox. Wallace has over 260 screen acting credits to her name, including many genre movies. Among those credits are The Hills Have Eyes, The Howling, Cujo, Critters, Alligator II: The Mutation, Abominable, Rob Zombie’s Halloween, The House of the Devil, The Lords of Salem, Red Christmas, Critters Attack!, 3 from Hell, 13 Fanboy, and more.

I am a fan of Dee Wallace and a sucker for a slasher movie, so I’ll probably be seeing this one at some point – even though I have to admit that I wasn’t as won over by the trailer as I was hoping to be, based on Wallace’s involvement and the look of the slasher character. But odds are that I’ll give it a chance.
