Robert (film)
Robert is a 2015 British horror film written and directed by Andrew Jones. It stars Suzie Frances Garton, Lee Bane, Flynn Allen, Judith Haley and Megan Lockhurst. The film was inspired by a haunted doll named Robert. Plot
Lawyer Paul Otto and his wife Jenny, an artist, decide that Agatha, the nanny to their son Gene, is getting past it and make the decision to dismiss her. Agatha takes the decision badly and promises this will not be the end of it. She departs, leaving Gene with a hideous doll called Robert. Jenny soon becomes concerned about the relationship between Gene and Robert. Gene insists that Robert is alive and that it destroyed one of Jenny’s paintings and wrote ‘die’ on her bathroom mirror. Jenny soon comes to believe that Robert is alive and was responsible for pushing the cleaner Martha down the stairs and killing the babysitter Marcie. However, with no proof of this, Paul thinks Jenny’s mental health is playing up again. Cast
