The premise

In 1951 USSR, as the Cold War intensifies, infamous dictator Joseph Stalin is suffering with illness and his death is imminent. Meanwhile, KGB agent Stoichkov discovers a mysterious stage show in the Baltic region featuring three creepy dolls - Robert, Kalashnikov and Miss Cyclops. Spellbound by the lifelike animation displayed by the dolls on stage, Stoichkov investigates the show's host and discovers he is a German Toymaker who owns a mystical book which holds the key to eternal life. Believing the Toymaker and his book will help Stalin escape death, Stoichkov kidnaps him and they board a plane to Moscow. But the Toymaker's living creations have followed them. When the plane is in mid air all hell breaks loose as Stoichkov and his team of KGB agents realize the three dolls are on board and will stop at nothing to rescue their puppet master. Fasten your seat belt and prepare for blood soaked toy terror at 30,000 feet.

Horror Vault's take

Set against the dying days of Stalin's Soviet Union, Robert Reborn drops a trio of sinister, supernaturally animated dolls into one of history's darkest regimes. When a KGB agent kidnaps a German toymaker believed to hold the secret to eternal life, he makes the fatal mistake of boarding a plane — and the dolls follow. What unfolds at 30,000 feet is a blood-soaked clash of Cold War brutality and killer-toy mayhem in an inescapable metal tube hurtling through the sky. It's pulpy, it's gory, and it wastes no time getting to the carnage.
