The movie "Doll Killer" is described as being a 1987 video. It is not. The video was created and released around 2010/2013 and the crew is trying to claim that it's a "lost 1987 video" in an attempt to go viral and gain attention. On Dustin Ferguson's IMDb page he openly states that Jesus Satan is a pseudonym and that he was born in 1982.

In a press release sent to Dread Central, it states the following:
"DOLL KILLER began life as a short story by Dustin Ferguson published on leading slasher website Retro Slashers and quickly grew a viral life of its own as a lost classic with a shady past. Now it’s a real movie that blurs the lines between contemporary and retro."
It's pretty obviously NOT an 80s movie and labeling it as being from the 80s is pretty much just a hoax. There were no websites around in the 1980s, let alone Retro Slashers- especially since it apparently launched in 2004. I'm all for viral marketing, but this was sloppily done and since it's so obviously and clearly false, the "1987 video" claims should be removed from the lead to avoid misleading viewers.
