Anyone who loves movies about killer dolls that look like truly creative masterworks as much as I do, raise your hands. Ok you little freaks, put 'em down now before anyone sees you! Here we have, in my opinion, one of the greatest series of movies ever, Chuck Band's "Puppet Master" series! Though, since I control whether you live or die, my opinion is all that should really matter, net-jockey! But, this is the start of a legacy! A group of psychic friends (with NO association to Warwick) travel to the home of a fellow mind-bender to see his dead body. Soon, the innocent sixth-sense-ers start getting picked off one-by-one. How? They're murdered by the coolest puppets YOU'LL ever see! The strangest part? No one seems to notice, or even care that their fellow victims are missing! In the end, it turns out that the dead guy really isn't, and that he discovered the puppets and the secret to immortality, which doesn't really seem that long for the sorry saps who piss off the puppets. Yep, this jerk makes the fatal mistake of smackin' around Jester (the runt of the litter) and this, obviously, pisses off the rest off the bunch, who mutilate the dumb putz. This guy isn't the first puppet master though, he stole the ideas of the great Andre Toulon, who blew his brains out as opposed to falling prey to Nazi persecution. If I'd known about Toulon earlier, I would've just smoked the Nazis for him. Oh well, the puppets still manage to come back for six (yes six!) sequels! It's a good time to like puppets!

Sequels: PUPPET MASTER II, PUPPET MASTER III: TOULON'S REVENGE, PUPPET MASTER 4: WHEN BAD PUPPETS TURN GOOD, PUPPET MASTER 5: THE FINAL CHAPTER, CURSE OF THE PUPPET MASTER, RETRO-PUPPET MASTER
