Watch Puppet Master For Free

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

The first must-see film of the year.

The acting in this movie is really good.

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

PUPPETMASTER🌕🌕🌕🌕🌘 4.2This is a great B-movie. Great FX (and puppetry), great characters, great atmosphere. I'm always hearing people say PM2 or PM3 is the best in the series, but I'm leaning more to this one. It's very compelling, entertaining and has decent pacing for a B-horror film. My main complaint is a few really dumb horror movie decisions. That's really the biggest problem. Also, William hickey is good as puppeteer Andre Toulon. In all, the best puppet master film, and much better than some of the other full moon stuff back then (see Ghoulies 1&2). Recommended to any B-movie or fan. A very fun film.

Puppet Master (1989): The Good, the Bad and the Blind?Synopsis: Story centering around a puppet maker from the 1930's with the power to breathe life into inanimate objects - in this case, his puppets. A group of colleagues, all with some sort of psychic powers of their own, try to track down secrets that the puppet maker left behind with the mindset of harnessing the ancient power of raising the dead.The Good: Okay, so for starters, this is pretty cool concept for a movie. There is a lot of good back-story with the character of Andre Toulon (which has far too little screen time), the puppet maker with a gift of breathing life in his puppets... which he just happens to make look kinda creepy... and with weapons for hands and heads and stuff? Uh, okay... I guess so. Anyway, the fact that there is a lot of mysticism and psychic power type of stuff going on all over the place is enough to keep your attention. I actually wanted to know what was happening and how it was all going to unfold. For a cheesy puppet-kills-people movie, the story was intriguing enough to keep my attention until the end. There's a little bit of a "who-dunnit" type mystery aspect to this movie and I guess I wasn't expecting that. It was a nice touch to the script, which isn't awful.The Bad: The acting is a bit over-the-top and not in a good way. I wouldn't call it "bad", just not great and it's distracting from the characters, because they are somewhat interesting... even if it is only from the standpoint that you want to know what their secret power is and how it relates to the overall story. Also, the puppets themselves almost become secondary to the story and at times, the writers almost forget about them... which is a bit odd. Are they good? Are they evil? It's almost like the writers couldn't figure it out. Maybe they are neither, I don't know. It was like, "Okay, I guess this is supposed to be a horror movie, so let's throw in a scene where one of the puppets does something nasty." They really seem to want to tell two stories, but don't blend them well enough to tell them both simultaneously, so it focuses more on the humans and what they are after - which is the ability, not the puppets, so the puppets become a side show instead of a centerpiece. The puppets themselves are not scary and the movie isn't overly gory, but they are kind of cool and unique to an extent, I guess.The Blind?: Are all the people in this movie blind? It's funny how no one can actually SEE the puppets running around. There are far too many scenes shot from the view of the puppet (running around on the ground, etc) and no one sees them. It wouldn't be so distracting if they didn't take a "hey, look at the cool camera trick we are doing to make it look like you are the puppet running around" every five minutes. It takes some of the believability out of the movie (and yes, I know that's an oxymoron).

I have seen half of it this before, Cause I found at little slow back then and turned it off half way in as I got bored a few years ago , this movie dose have some very some slow parts.Which can be a bit boring, it did take me while before the movie really get me in, I wasn't really into the movie until after the half away mark of the movie.I did like Puppets were really good and creepy, really well made, Creepy Puppets and like how they moved, There were some decent plot however this movie dose seem a little out dated.the acting was little cheesy then I thought it be,I found some parts a bit too silly even for this kinda of movie, Yes, I know it's was meant to be Silly but i expected something else silly, like Dolls or Child Play, which I really liked.5 out of 10

Puppetmaster (1989) ** (out of 4) A group of psychics gather at the former house of a puppet maker (William Hickey) who killed himself back in 1939. In the present day, the psychics try to figure out some of the mysteries inside the house but they're soon attacked by his puppets who are alive and well. Charles Band and his Full Moon Pictures released quite a few movies straight to video back in the day and I think it's safe to say that this here is one of the few that managed to gather some mainstream attention. The film would eventually set forth a ton of sequels and even a few rip-offs but watching the movie I was a left a little curious as to why. There's no doubt that there's some minor appeal to this thing but for the life of me I didn't see anything overly special that would make me think that we needed a ton of sequels. I think the best thing the film has going for it is the low-budget because this manages to help build up a nice atmosphere that runs throughout the film. I thought director David Schmoeller did a nice job at building up this atmosphere that at least made you feel as if you were in some sort of fantasy land where these puppets could actually be alive. With that said, that's about the only positive thing to say about the picture. One of the biggest problems is that the so-called "mystery" is so poorly done that you're bored within the first ten-minutes and it's nearly impossible to build up any excitement in regards to what's going on. Another problem with the screenplay is that it really doesn't develop any of the main characters and in the end you have a very hard time caring for any of them and you really don't care if any of them live or not. I thought the special effects were fairly decent considering how low the budget must have been but there are a few moments where the puppets just seem to be much bigger than they actually are. There's one scene with a puppet whose head is ultra-small has its small hands around the neck of a woman and for some reason the hands are big enough to fit around her large neck. This scene doesn't work because it's obvious the hands belong to someone else but the biggest issue I had with all of the puppets was the fact that they simply weren't scary. The R-rated film offers up some brief sex scenes, some nudity and some blood but nothing overly memorable. The performances are decent at best but it's always nice to see Hickey but sadly he isn't around for long.
