I was bored. I didn't care about anything the characters did or the characters themselves. There was little action, just lots of badly acted boring dialogue and scenes of trying to hard to be creepy. Action including special effects, but not excluding anything else. The only cool part was the ventriloquism, a part I won't mention so as not to ruin the movie, but I assume if you've seen it you know what I'm talking about. As well when Mary Shaw was performing it was interesting. Otherwise it was uninteresting. My suspension of disbelief faltered fast mostly because it seemed there were plot holes, things happening that were too convenient. The cop was irritating, not amusing or whatever else they were trying to have him be. There was no dread, I knew almost everything that was going to happen.

I'm a big Puppet Master fan and am getting ready to watch them all again vampy (it's been awhile). How would you rank the entries. I ask because I've seen some horror fans rank sequels higher than originals---NOES Dream Warriors, etc.

Got ya. Actually, I agree with all your comments - the ventriloquism scene with the woman was the best part. The dialogue was poor, was cop impetus was bland, the characters were flat & didn't evoke much to care about them. I must have been in a good mood when I saw it. I was mostly looking to be scared, & I found it scary, & I mildly enjoyed it.

thats a hard one myers......i think i`d have to go with the original or the 3rd, toulons revenge..i like a back story. the original looks dated obviously now but they never tried to progresss the puppetry in any of the later versions so it doesnt have a different feel if that makes sense.

Made my dad happy seeing those tractor trailers explode. Dad dispatches them so he hates them.
