The Doll Master (인형사, Inhyeongsa) is a 2004 South Korean horror film directed by Yong-ki Jeong.
[edit] Plot
Five young people are invited to a remote doll museum to be models for dolls. Here they meet a strange doll maker in a wheelchair and several other people. The five young visitors later find that they all came from the same village, and all know a common story: A doll has its own spirit. Then one by one, each is mysteriously killed. The last few survivors find out the truth: dolls do have spirits, and they have come to settle some old scores.
[edit] Dolls
Although the story states that dolls are decades old, many of the dolls used in the film are recent ball-jointed dolls from Korea or from the Japanese company Volks. For example, the doll Mi-na and another male doll (Demian) are actually part of the "Event" series of "The AI" dolls from Custom House, a Korean doll company.[citation needed]
