The premise
When a vintage Jack-in-the-box is un-earthed and opened, it's new owners soon have reason to believe the creepy clown doll within has a life of its own.
Horror Vault's take
A vintage Jack-in-the-box surfaces and quickly proves to be far more than a harmless antique — the sinister clown sealed within seems to have a will, and a hunger, entirely its own. This low-budget British supernatural horror leans into slow-burn dread, letting the unsettling presence of the toy fester before the body count begins. Fans of killer-doll chillers will find a suitably creepy centrepiece monster at the heart of the story.
