This film ran constantly on USA's Night Flight and Saturday Nightmares.
"Living Dolls" ran for 13 years on cable TV (HBO, Cinemax, USA Network, Z Channel, etc.) as "interstitial programming" from 1980 to 1993. Todd Coleman's NYU film also won nine international awards, including a CINE Eagle, Best Entertainment Film in Jacksonville, FL, First Prize at the Melbourne International Film Festival, and Second Prize in Badalona Spain and Huy Belgium. The film was partly edited on the same KEM flatbed machine that RAGING BULL was edited on, since Todd was Robert De Niro's personal assistant at the time. (Raging Bull won the Best Editing Oscar for 1980.)
