New Trailer for Indie Venture 'Melancholy Fantastic'

We've a new trailer embedded below for evil doll film The Melancholy Fantastic just for you. This one has a definite May-esque charm to it and features one downright creepy doll.

Described as a 'psychological thriller', The Melancholy Fantastic revolves around a delusional young girl, Melanie Crow, who's trying to recover from the harsh blow of her mother's recent suicide. Her best friend is a life-size doll and reports are that it just might talk. Melanie strikes up a new relationship with a young gothic fellow - who likely is going to make the mistake of misinterpreting her growing psychosis and insanity for normal old girlish quirkiness. His bad!

The Melancholy Fantastic is set during the Christmas season and is loosely inspired by several different novels. The strongest inspiratioin is from The Sickness Unto Death by Søren Kierkegaard, though there are also reportedly references to Parable of the Madman by Friedrich Nietzsche as well as The Stranger by Albert Camus.

The film is directed by A.D. Calvo and stars Amy Crowdis and Robin Taylor. Check out the trailer and let us know what you think with a comment below!
