:  Movie Info

Young Carol Kane set the pattern for her screen persona as a kindly but
dim bulb teen in this dark kitchen sink drama, set in small town
Ontario during World War II. Her older brother home on leave brings
with him a worthless army buddy, who forces himself upon her after a
night of drunken carousing. Left pregnant she faces the wrath of her
imbecilic father (Donald Pleasence), who cooks up a monstrous scheme to
"save the family honor" which culminates in one of the most grotesque
finales ever put to film.
Bleak and utterly harrowing, this is the scratchy flip side to all
those cloying "nostalgia" flicks of its era and a fierce condemnation
of the patriarchal social system out of control. For all its seriousness
of purpose, though, it's also very funny, rude Canadian humor permeating
even its worst situations. Though unflinchingly realistic, it's
structured like a horror film and the final moment plays like the punch
line of an especially tasteless joke. Not for all tastes, but
recommended to those who caught the mordant hilarity of the equally
poignant but merciless WELCOME TO THE DOLLHOUSE.
