Puppet Master 1 (1989) Start of a great series




     I just want to say that this is a great start to a wonderful series.  Puppet Master is directed by the genius Charles Band and is inspired by an earlier movie of his called Dolls, which by the way I have not seen. 
     A small group of psychics investigating an old hotel come under attack by a group of 5 killer Puppets left there in 1939 by an elderly puppet maker Andre Toulon whom committed suicide. As the puppets Drill, Hook & Strangle them to death, the remaining psychics tries to figure out how to deal with the problem. Only to find out that the puppets may be the least of their problems. First film in the Puppet Master series is a very entertaining horror film & the one that set Full Moon Pictures on the map. A horror hit, That should please horror fans & fans of killer doll movies like the Child's Play series (This film came in exactly one year after that film to capitalize on it's success). Great fun all the way. Followed by several sequels & prequels.

Rating...
6/10
