old horror movie about a doll

It is not trilogy of terror, that came out in 1975. The movie referenced was played on TV when I was in 7th grade 1973, but I don't know how much earlier it was made. The doll was more chunky ish, I am trying to figure the Name out also. I will get it soon if I have to rely on old friends on FB.

There was a NIGHT GALLERY episode that dealt with possessed dolls; could that have been it?

not sure if it will help but I found a youtube video that makes a sort of "tribute" to these kind of movies. Maybe if the doll you're referring to is in the "tribute" you can look at the titles in the video description and figure it out. I'm sorry you're having such a problem with this...there's a movie I'm having just as bad a time remembering :( anyway the video is on youtube and it's called "Killer Dolls tribute"

Hi. try "Ragdoll" 1999. IMDB title/tt0226362/

or: Tales From the Hood (1995) which has 4-5 short stories contained within one larger story (found thru www dot best-horror-movies dot com
(not allowing me to post links)

there's another one, I think, that was made into a schlock movie (?80s/90s), which was based on a book...a ragdoll left on a doorstep, coming to life after it's sewn mouth was slit open. caucasian man runs and runs.. (?)..

The movie has to be "Amelia" or some remake of it. It's a part of the Trilogy of Terror. It was a chain, not a sash in the 1975 version.

found another link that might help you: on YouTube, a lady named Ask Bonnie--Killer Doll Movies discuss movies with evil dolls. Including the comment section.---Shannon

I am so sorry you have not found the movie you are looking for but you have definitely helped me find what I've been looking for for a long time now. Amelia is exactly what I watched from behind the couch when I was about 6 or 7. I am now 40 and still cannot allow my arms or legs to dangle near the floor when lying on the couch or in bed because of that doll. It's mad, I know, and I also can't stand watching any dolls come to life in anything! It's bizarre what affects the mind. I hope you have luck in finding your movie. I'm now going to watch the whole 'Amelia' to hopefully get rid of my demons.
Thanks everyone.

Are you thinking of the movie Chucky? I know this is later than the 70's but I thought i'd throw it in the mix.

not sure if it's been mentioned yet but could it be:

Black Devil Doll

or

Black Devil Doll From Hell?

Yup. I was thinking the same... The Night Gallery's 'The Doll' 1971

About the chunkyish doll, I'm reminded of the end of Asylum (1972).
