Review by Mark Longden
Possessed of an interesting title – why is it called “The Toybox” if it’s about a family taking a ride in an Rv which breaks down in the desert? – and a cast of a much higher calibre than the average indie horror movie – Denise Richards and Mischa Barton are two of the stars – I was looking forward to watching this.
Without being too critical, it’s never a good sign when you can predict how the first scene in a movie will play out. There’s a dirty, old-looking Rv parked on a street, and a kid on his bicycle. The Rv’s door swings open. My wife immediately chimes in with “that kid’s getting sucked into that Rv and the door will slam shut”. I guessed “blood splatter on the windows, as seen from the outside”. We were both right!
But, originality is sometimes overrated,...
