“Worry to death”
Directed by Padraig Reynolds
The premise
A brutal serial killer is finally gunned down in the middle of carrying out one last heinous act of bloody murder. In the maniac’s possession, a box of Guatemalan talismans, which mistakenly end up being sold as charm jewelry in Chloe’s Collectables thrift shop. Soon those who bought the Worry Dolls begin to act strangely out of character and cause another rash of senseless slaughter. An ancient curse is consuming the city and pits a hardened detective against the clock to save his 8 year-old daughter’s life.
Horror Vault's take
When a string of gruesome murders leads back to a set of Guatemalan worry dolls circulating through a local thrift shop, a seasoned detective finds himself racing against something far older and darker than any killer he has faced before. The talismans carry a malevolent force that quietly takes hold of anyone who possesses them, turning ordinary people into instruments of savage violence. With the body count rising and his own young daughter in danger, the detective must untangle the curse's origins before it claims someone he loves. Worry Dolls blends procedural thriller tension with supernatural folk horror to unsettling effect.
