		After seeing puppet master 6 I was very dissapointed the whole film had a cheap feel to it with scenes from previous films.Living in the uk is hell for a puppet master fan as nobody has even heard of it.
		I enjoyed each film better than the last and noticed at the end of puppet master 3 a coming soon notice for puppet master 4.
		I spotted puppet master 1,2,3 on the top shelf of the horror section and decided to give it a go.

	World of Foy - Puppet Master Vs. Demonic Toys (2004) :: Review :: Horror Channel.com ::
		The same cannot be said about Puppet Master vs. Demonic Toys because despite having the movie named after them, the overwhelming majority of the film deals with really lame characters involved in a really lame story that revolves around the puppets and the toys yet rarely bothers to actually include them in it.
		Puppet Master vs. Demonic Toys is one of the biggest wastes of time I have ever wasted time on.
		Watching Puppet Master vs. Demonic Toys is like watching a dying cockroach turned over on its back, its legs flailing about slower and slower with every passing moment until finally it becomes completely lifeless.

	DVD Reviews - The Puppet Master 5-7
		Well, Magrew's idea for continuing the good puppet master's work is to make a breed of human puppets that are better than human and just as psycho as any puppet.
		Six of the seven films in this set are almost identical in the approach taken for the menu screens.
		The film audio is better than the audio on the supplements at least.

	33StewartW.doc
		However, though the film’s premise centers itself upon the notion of Craig as the puppet master, a closer look reveals Maxine as the mastermind tugging the strings of the naïve characters.
		Maxine embodies all of the characteristics of a true puppet master; she has the uncanny ability to influence and move everyone who encounters her the way she would like them to, which allows her to use the vulnerable characters to her own advantage.
		The end of the film brings Craig to his final act, where he remains a puppet to Maxine and Lotte’s daughter, forced to accept scene changes and the entrances and exits of countless characters in the daughter’s life.

	Amazon.co.uk: Puppet Master 2 [1990]: DVD
		If anybody thinks this film is basically the same as the pitiful 1989 instalment think again.Puppet Master 2 is a huge improvement on the pile of junk that the original was, as this time we get to see more of the superb puppets and learn more about Andre Toulon, their evil creator.
		A brief description of the films would be that the puppets are controlled by their master and have to kill for him, but they aren't adverse to turning on him if his plans affect their wellbeing!
		Normally films like this are over-done with blood and end up looking cheesy, but I can promise you that puppet master 2 is neither cheesy or overated.

	DVD Reviews - The Puppet Master 1-4
		Charles Band is a competent film producer, he has a very carnival approach to his movies - give the audience what they want and pull the cash from their pockets (making them happy all the while).
		While he is sulking around dressed in rags to cover his face (I guess to not give away that he isn't the same actor from the first film), he falls in love with a paranormal researcher (who he thinks is his reincarnated wife).
		The film, for a Full Moon flick, is well rounded and shows the puppets in a way that is much more marketable.

	Puppetmaster review
		Puppet Master was the film that put Full Moon Entertainment -- Charles Band's independent exploitation film company -- on the map.
		Puppet Master is actually much less straightforward than many films of its ilk and it manages to generate some stylishness in unravelling its body-count plot.
		The plot evolves from a back-story concerning famous puppet master Andre Toulon (Hickey), who, in a big, fancy hotel at Bodega Bay toward the end of the War, hides his animated puppets and shoots himself minutes before Nazi agents arrive to wrest his 'secret of life' from him.

	Puppet Master
		The film has a painfully slow pace, but the climax is OK. Producer/writer Charles Band was able to milk an entire franchise out of it.
		But his evil creations live on, sending telepathic messages to the team of psychics that eventually show up at the dead puppet master's home to investigate.
		An occult "puppet master" is forced to commit suicide as Nazis move in on his operation.

	Reviews-Retro Puppet Master
		So overall, this is my favorite Puppet Master film, and I really do recommend this one over any of them.
		Andre Toulon's days before he became the Puppet Master were spent running an avent-garde puppet theatre in pre-World War 1 Paris and loving Ilsa, the beautiful daughter of the Swiss ambassador.
		This is definately my favorite Puppet Master film.

	Retro Puppet Master (1999)
		This is the seventh Puppet Master film and come on, the only person anyone actually watches these is to see the puppets come to life and kill people.
		Stick to the first 3 Puppet Master films for a great time.
		The pursuit takes them to Paris, where the sorcerer gives the secret of life to a young puppet master named Andre Toulon before he is killed.

	Puppet Master II
		Puppet Master II returns to the same hotel where the characters from the first film met a grisly end.
		The new pint-sized terror in this film is Torch, a puppet with a flame-thrower.
		The puppets are all here, this time with their creator André Toulon (Steve Welles), wrapped in bandages to hide the fact that he recently rose from his grave thanks to some ancient Egyptian formula.

	Compare Prices and Read Reviews on Puppet Master 3: Toulon's Revenge at Epinions.com
		Puppet Master III: Toulon's Revenge has the best cast of any Puppet Master film, and one of the best stories ever told by Full Moon.
		This is the pinnacle of the Puppet Master films.
		We all rooted for the puppets in the previous films, it was about time they made the puppets the heroes.

	The Puppet Master
		Watch this film twice in fairly rapid succession, as I have just done, and it will be forcibly borne upon you that for all the questions raised during the dialogue scenes in the first half of the film (and there are a lot of them), not one of them is ever answered.
		Dana’s big mistake, of course, was not realising what kind of film she was in, something the audience was tipped off to earlier, first with the inclusion of an utterly pointless character, the housekeeper, Theresa, and then with that pointless character’s equally pointless murder.
		She is rewarded for her efforts with the film’s best human moment, when Dana finds the "dead" Neil Gallagher in her bedroom – and instead of screaming and fainting like Megan, reacts only with a smirk of perverted amusement.

		Puppet Master VI: Curse of the Puppet Master
		I watched like 8 minutes of Retro Puppet Master on HBO while I was awaiting on somebody at their house, but thats it and from those few minutes they didn't grab me to further pursue it with a rental or blind buy.
		Love the puppets though, even though its VERY wishful thinking,i'd love to see one last sequel done right...not all cheap and piss-poor like PM vs. DT or Curse of Puppet Master, but stuff like the first 5.

	The B-Hive - Puppet Master
		The film begins in 1939 as Andre Toulon, a kindly psychic puppet maker who can make his little creations come to life (for some reason they're designed to be benign, despite the knives on their arms and drills on their heads), is being chased down by nazi agents.
		If you got Puppet Master, then you probably got the little "making of" featurette (which can be found at the end of the VHS).
		Then Blade (a cool puppet with a knife for one hand and a hook in the other) attacks her and she gets away in the elevator.

	Puppet Master (1989)
		Full Moon's first film was not the classic it could have been.
		The characters in the film are quite cliiched as far as psychics go.
		The actual puppet work is done to such good effect as to give the little wooden creatures almost genuine emotion.

	Curse of the PuppetMaster DVD
		Full Moon entertainment releases Curse of the Puppet Master in a full-frame only version as their films are primarily shot with VHS and cable TV in mind.
		If you are a dedicated fan of the Puppet Master series (and if you are I pity you), you may be interested in the film as a curiosity piece.
		I always thought that the original Puppet Master was an awful film with some interesting concepts and casting.

	: Puppet Master 7 - DVD film
		The film's ending in itself is a reason to celebrate, save for the fact that yet another sequel is set up with a last line of "that's another story for another time." In the accompanying VideoZone feature, Charles Band assures the viewer that a full line of action figures will be marketed for this film.
		I hadn't heard of the 'Puppet Master' series at all when this came on the SFI channel recently.
		Basically a prequel, an aged Toulon tells his puppets the story of the origins of his powers and the puppets themselves, introducing a few new puppets and "retro" versions of those we already know.

	Amazon.com: The Puppet Master: Music: King Diamond
		The Unfortunate Man goes down to the puppet show to investigate and sees the Puppet Master's wife leaving with a wheel barrel and follows her only to see her murder a homeless man and put his body in the cart.
		Puppet Master is packaged nicely, and the booklet design and art direction is of high quality and professional looking.
		He is strangely drawn to this young woman, Victoria, almost as if one of the puppet's ghosts is sitting on his shoulder whispering in his ear to go and kiss the girl.

	Puppet Master 4
		Filmed at the same time as Puppet Master 5: The Final Chapter (which, of course, it wasn't--the final chapter I mean), the film is actually surprisingly cohesive.
		Horror film showing on TV/in theater in movie
		A research group is dangerously close to cracking the secret of artificial intelligence when they start dying off one by one.

	Video Review @ Stomp Tokyo - Retro Puppet Master (1999)
		In Retro Puppet Master the puppets are usually shown in extreme close-up, like muppets, so the special effects crew won't have to worry about making the puppets stand or about hiding the control mechanisms.
		In the first couple of Puppet Master movies the puppets were fairly active, and they were brought to life by stop-motion animation more than a couple of times a movie.
		The kindly puppeteer offers him sanctuary in the theater, and the old man, whose name is Afzel, explains that in his 3000 years of life, he has never heard such a silly accent.

	: Curse of the Puppet Master - DVD film
		Bruger anmeldelser af Curse of the Puppet Master:
		The puppets also seem less animated than in previous films; nevertheless, they still manage to get their whacks in.
		Andre Toulon's living puppets are back, this time in the possession of Dr. Magrew (George Peck), who runs a house of marvels and is experimenting to create the perfect being, without all the inner conflict and torment of humans.

	St. Louis Chronology
		Filmed in Montreal in 1961, we visit with a man whose crime was robbing a postal sub-station of stamps, and later, attempting to commit suicide, and threatening the life of the doctor who pumped his stomach.
		The film is at least partly autobiographical, as Vigo, the son of an anarchist who may have been murdered by French authorities, grew up in a stifling boarding school environment similar to this one, with its petty rules and ignorant administrators.
		The film is as lush and radiant as a Monet painting, with those great juxtapositions of painting and the part of the garden which inspired it.

		I asked my friend who I was watching the film with, after seeing the first puppet, if she was finding this film even the slightest bit scary, or a big joke, she said that it might get better.
		It was torture having to sit through this film, and it was only the sheer desperation to see even one good scene that made us sit all the way through it.
		its a great movie, good special effects and a overall good plot.Avoid curse of the puppet master at all costs because it sucked and they used scenes from the older puppet master movies.If you are a sane person watch puppet master its a fantasic movie....

	Gary Westfahl's Bio-Encyclopedia of Science Fiction Film: George Worthing Yates
		This was the film, more than any other, that terrified me as a child; for weeks afterward, I looked about the world uneasily, worried that bloodrust might suddenly trickle out from under the closet door.
		It is perhaps appropriate that information on Yates's activities before and after his seven-year career in science fiction film is so hard to come by; for it is as if, like his most famous creations, he came from beneath the surface, effected some spectacular and entertaining damage, and finally returned from whence he came.
		Only The Spider, Yates's surrender to the worst trend of the late 1950s — the marriage of the monster movie and teen exploitation film also attempted in The Giant Gila Monster and Village of the Giants — is a complete embarrassment.
