Judith Gray (also spelled as Judith Grey) is a fictional Policewoman from the low-budget B-horror movie Demonic Toys and its 1993 crossover sequel, Dollman vs. Demonic Toys. They were a part of Full Moon Features' wave of killer toy movies, which also include Puppet Master and Dolls. Similar films such as Doll Graveyard came out later.

A tough cop with a strong sense of justice, the character was portrayed by American actress Tracy Scoggins in both her appearances.

Demonic Toys

Judith Gray and her partner/boyfriend Matt Cable attempt to arrest two arms dealers (Lincoln and Hesse) outside of the Arcadia Toys warehouse. Unfortunately, Matt is shot dead in a botched arrest attempt, but does succeed in wounding Hesse. The bad guys escape into the nearby warehouse, with Judith in hot pursuit. Hesse bleeds into a glowing crack in the floor, which inadvently awakens a 66 year old demon. The demon (although very weak) has some power remaining and he uses this power to animate the toys, who act as his minions. Their first victim is Hesse.

The demon (still taking the form of a young boy) is looking for a suitable body to inhabit, and it just so happens that Judith is pregnant with her first child (the demon later explains his devilish plans to Judith during a dream scene).

Judith manages to apprehend Lincoln, but ends up having to team up with a delivery boy (Mark), a security guard (Charnetski) and a runaway (Anne), who have also become trapped inside the warehouse by fate or coincidence.

In the end, the toys and their master are defeated, with the help of a "good" toy soldier (who is actually the spirit of Judith's unborn son). Judith kills Lincoln, and Charnetski and Anne fall victim to the toys, with Judith and Mark coming out as the survivors.

Dollman vs. Demonic Toys

Judith returned in Dollman vs. Demonic Toys. Although she was the main character in Demonic Toys, she has a relatively minor role in the sequel, which also includes the aforementioned Dollman (the spacecop Brick Bardo) from the movie of the same name, and Nurse Ginger (otherwise known as "Dollchick") from Full Moon Features' other minor video hit, Bad Channels. The three become a team in an attempt to destroy the titular toys, who have mysteriously returned to wreak havoc at the Toyland Warehouse.

Against overwhelming odds, Dollman and Ginger manage to defeat the toys, but Ginger is almost raped by Baby Oopsy-Daisy at one point, as part of their plan to resurrect their long dead master. Judith was killed in battle by Mr. Static, a dangerous toy robot. She is briefly mentioned on the back of the DVD cover for the UK release of Puppet Master vs Demonic Toys, which also features a female cop in a confrontation with the toys.

In other media

In the 1990s, Malibu Comics issued comics based on many of Full Moon's movies, including Trancers, Dollman, Demonic Toys, Subspecies and Puppet Master. The Demonic Toys comics revealed the name of Judith's son as Matthew. Baby Oopsy-Daisy murders a jogger called Jack and their demon master (the Kid) takes over his body. Much time passes, and Toyland is replaced by the Arcadia Toy Company. Matthew suspects Jack may have been possessed. It is worth noting that the comics are not considered to be canonical.
