[3] Critical reception for Dolly Dearest was mostly panned,[4] with DVD Verdict writing that "aside from a handful of fun moments, there's nothing much here to separate it from the lineup of Child's Play clones it dwells among.

[1] DVD Talk panned the film, saying "in the 'killer doll' subgenre of stupid horror flicks, Dolly Dearest may very well be the most moronic".
