Toys Are Not For Children

£10.00
Psychological trauma and aberrant sexuality abound in this twisted 1972
tale of a young woman whose severe daddy issues send her on an
unforgettably bleak downward spiral. Yearning for the love of her
absentee father, Jamie inhabits an infantilized world surrounded by
toys, including those which her wayward pops bizarrely continues to send
her. Unable to consummate her new marriage with dashing colleague
Charlie, Jamie's chance encounter with aging sex worker Pearl leads her
into the murky world of prostitution where her most disturbing erotic
fantasies begin to play out. Grim, quirky and strangely affecting in
equal measure, Stanley H. Brasloff's Toys Are Not for Children is a
truly one-of-a-kind effort from the heyday of the American exploitation
independents, which builds to a haunting and devastating climax that
lingers long after the credits roll.
