In this adolescent-oriented drama, a young woman is forced to attend a posh finishing school in the Mediterranean. She vents her anger by rebelling against the cruel and sicko headmaster. When she discovers that he has been secretly photographing them naked and profiting from the pictures, she rallies the other girls and gets revenge. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

Herschel Gordon Lewis is a stranger to subtlety, so don't expect a Noel Coward drawing room comedy while perusing How to Make a Doll. The hero, Robert Wood, is a nerdish professor. Unable to score with the ladies, Wood creates an army of female androids who'll never say no. How to Make a Doll was made just after Lewis' Just for the Hell of It, and just before The Psychic. By noting this, we do not mean to infer that the three films are on a par with Pasolini's "Trilogy of Life", or even Ford's "Cavalry Trilogy". ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
This minor gore-comedy from cult director Herschell Gordon Lewis stars Elizabeth Davis as an elderly wigmaker. Her son murders women and scalps them to provide hair for the wigs, choosing victims from the college students who rent rooms in their home. The humor is of the slapstick, vaudeville nature, and Lewis' gore effects had become no more convincing in the four years since his first horror outing, Blood Feast (1963). Nevertheless, a great deal of red paint is spilled and that is what made Lewis his name. ~ Robert Firsching, Rovi
