PITCH

If the chilling scene of Garland Greene, the infamous serial killer known as “The Marietta Mangler,” sitting with the little girl in Con Air—calmly discussing how wearing a hat makes you look happy while she serves him tea, all while singing He’s Got the Whole World in His Hands — gave you chills... this script will take that tension to the next level.

DOLLFACE is a high-concept, limited-location psychological horror centering on a mute, masked child raised in abuse and isolation, his face forever hidden behind the front half of a porcelain doll’s head. In the rotting home he shares with his volatile, alcoholic mother Bobbi, he surrounds himself with dolls — some real, some crafted from the bodies of children — in an eerie mockery of companionship.

When Cana, a sweet, autistic six-year-old, wanders into his world, her innocence and unwavering calm begin to disrupt his ingrained cycle of violence. As Bobbi’s cruelty escalates and Cana’s devout, controlling mother closes in, tension builds toward a confrontation where love, faith, and trauma collide.

DOLLFACE delivers an unforgettable horror icon — visually striking, emotionally complex, and marketable in the tradition of Freddy or Jason — in a contained, production-friendly setting, with the atmospheric dread and disturbing imagery to leave audiences haunted long after the credits roll.
