Talk:Play With Me/@comment-7706473-20130911205854

Interesting... I can't say the ending left me in terror, but the beginning and middle more then made up for it. I'm one of the few people that doesn't find dolls entirely terrifying, but Philip's behaviour - the way it is stilted and exaggerated when it isn't flat and motionless - did a great job of seeming more inanimate then the dolls present... At first.

The image reminds me of Silent Hill 3, always a plus. There are a lot of little details I like - the time events occurred, Philip's already violent idea of what playing should be like. For a story that never really leaves the confines of a house, there's a great sense of powerlessness and build up.

Act the third though, didn't really cut it for me. So the entity turns Philip into a flying puppet and they go off to terrorize the neighborhood? The description is pretty frightening I guess, though a bit too close to the 'hyper-realistic gore' cliche for my taste, but it just seems sudden. Keep in mind this is a question of taste, though; just because I would've ended with Philip running away and taking the dolls with him - but having the Entity lurking around in the basement for some inxplicable reason - doesn't mean much of anything.

I have to run so I can't talk too much more, but it was certainly an interesting story. I'll be watching you! A daisy flower, for something matched to the story.
