These look exactly like hordes of the Zuni fetish dolls out of Trilogy of Terror (1975) or perhaps even more so the evil doll out of Black Devil Doll from Hell (1984).

All of the cast are unknown and give performances that tend towards the amateurish – the exception being John Vichiola who plays the perpetually contrarian businessman Morgan with a reasonable conviction.

Nobody involved ever seemed to go on to do anything else in the film industry again. The film was never widely seen or distributed when it came out and only floats around these days thanks to places like YouTube where apparently nobody involved seems interested enough to DMCA it. Attack of the Beast Creatures is an almost completely forgotten entry from the VHS era. ![]()
