Being a fan of the original puppet master films, I went in to this remake expecting to see better graphics and awesomely revamped versions of the puppets that were always so intriguing. It started off strong and genuinely creepy...until it came time for the puppets to start appearing. When I say they spit in the face of the whole franchise by changing Andrè Toulon's character and driving forces, as well as that of his puppets...man. There is no moral code here and after one of the murder scenes, I was just too disgusted and displeased to continue (and I'm a horror fan so I can handle a lot).
The puppets are still pretty cool to look at but that is about it. There is no satisfaction behind their kills though. Just senseless, squandered potential here. Very much a let down.
