Puppet Master Movie Review

[@sagebaca2013]

Finally Decker is reviewing one of my favorite horror franchises ever!!!

[@shadowdramon01]

For a minute, I thought you were about to announce “THE SUMMER OF PUPPET MASTER!”, but I guess not. Can’t wait to see what the summer special is going to be this year.

[@Nicole-cn8bj]

I know right. I mean it still could happen but less likely because he would have to have the whole series on hand. I dont know. But one could dream. Decker: "BUT IT WAS ALL- JUST A DREAM!"

[@Demolitiondude]

If he did. DER SOMMER DES PUPPET MASTER!

[@ChairView]

THE SUMMER OF Wish Master ?

[@shadowdramon01]

@@ChairView - There’s only four, and he already did all four.

[@MADMONEYMAN5000]

@@shadowdramon01 The last two were the worst of the four movies. I honestly think Wishmaster 2 is the best one

[@danielallen3454]

This series, the first 5 movies anyway, have a very special place in my heart. The theme song, particularly. They were a favorite series of my friend and I in high school. We both *loved* Full Moon. I am *so* glad you're doing this. This series deserve a lot more love.

[@freakyzed8467]

Was on ammo dump guard duty in the Army. Sergeant asked what movies we wanted him to rent for us to watch that night. I said Puppet Masters, meaning the alien invasion one. He came back with this. We had a hell of a good time laughing at this delightfully silly movie.

[@nobody2996]

Had a simmilar experience with another movie. Family were having a horror movie night one Halloween, I suggest American Werewolf in London, what my Dad came back with was A Werewolf in England. Shit was B Movie comedy gold and kind of impressive at some points even though it was obviously low budget.

[@UnwrittenSpade]

Hahahaha damn I never got to watch movies on watch that woulda made it go by much faster lol

[@lynnepaquette4124]

It's cool you could laugh at it. I was terrified. People are surprized it scared me.

[@BraxtonWages]

Loved this movie and all of Full Moon movies when I was a kid. The behind the scenes featurettes was what got me into the art of filmmaking. Before that I never knew how movies got made.

[@tonesdad0408]

The Videozone was a great piece to pad out the lack of runtime of some of these movies. I loved them and still watch them on Tubi.

[@Riku2099]

This series is honestly a bit of a guilty pleasure of mine. They aren't the best but they have their own kind of charm.

[@UnwrittenSpade]

Hell yeah they have mad charm! Especially the first 3 but really like the first 5 or 6 are fun! I don’t care for the newer ones or retro ones

[@TheAlterspark]

The puppetmaster series is best in the entries where the puppets are fighting Nazis - or demons. They rewrite the backstory so much it gets hard to follow

[@angrybrony]

i mean i personally think any franchise is at it's peak when it's about killing nazis.

[@RaginCanadian-gx2zl]

Yup they dont even make it past 3 before retcons come.

[@D-Skotes]

@@angrybrony bonus points of you force the souls of Nazis to work the magic dolls to kill more Nazis.

[@kylemendoza8860]

@@angrybrony You mean hiding or being killed by them?

[@NoraIconiq]

Yeah I once watched a bunch of them and saw three different origin stories for how they were brought to life. One being a syrum from the brain another was blood magic personally my favorite one was the elixer of life used to make them move in world war 2 nazi germany. Atleast I think thats what it was. It was a different take on the syrum idea only this time it didnt require brain fluid to be made it was made by some other means. Its been awhile since I saw it.

[@godusopp9401]

Never clicked so fast. One of my favorite horror series finally getting some attention from one of my favorite youtubers. Thanks deck

[@yandereneko5523]

Summer event in the middle of summer. Must be Decker Shado. Can't wait for the event to end in October.

[@ScowlieMeerkat]

"Don't touch the body!" delivery + line = GOLD

[@vincentmarcellino7183]

So that's what the second german line was? I can guess the first one was, "And the body count has started!" based on the way he said it

[@vincentmarcellino7183]

Nevermind. Different scene

[@rayengstrom1905]

I was really hoping this would end with the announcement that we have now entered... THE SUMMER OF PUPPET MASTER!!!

[@kaigen999]

You mean it wasn't? Damn. (Reading comments before vid even ends haha)

[@JenMistress]

Yeah, surprised me too.

[@gregdeandrea1450]

*Gasp* Summer of Puppet Master?!

[@thefusionforce6339]

FINALLY, YESS I have been waiting for a Puppet Master Episode. Thank you Decker

[@Zanzibar_Dallax]

*NOW IF I CAN GET LEPRECHAUN SERIES DONE I CAN DIE HAPPY*

[@johnw8578]

I remember haunting Blockbusters and renting all the Full Moon movies. I miss video rental stores.

[@jdangernoiz5861]

I was just watching for the "it was all just a dream" but got a dream within a dream... classic Decker 😄

[@darthcinema4262]

I'd say that this is one of the better movies from Full Moon, but it's still more hilarious than scary.

[@AbrasiousProductions]

Full moon features where my childhood

[@Lukkern]

Hey man! I've requested this a couple of times now and know you have a plan for MANY summer specials to come! But i would really LOVE to see "THE SUMMER OF DARIO ARGENTO" at some point! All his movies spanning from 1970-1987 which are horror! That's 7 movies in total excluding suspiria which you've already reviewed (LOVED that review by the way, and spiked my interest for this even more!!). Please OH PLEASE let this happen at some point! Even if i have to wait like 10 years before you're able to do this!

[@grapeshot]

Oh yeah the creepy dolls genre. I remember watching a lot of these movie late at night when I was still in high school.

[@TwelveGallonBee]

I'm really liking how, after conceding to KZbin's demand to ask people to like and Subscribe, you took the time to weave them into your reviews in funny and interesting ways. It really adds to the comedy.

[@OrangePandemic]

First time I watched this I thought that when Clarissa died she turned into the puppet spitting leeches. But it’s just another puppet not Clarissa, she just dead.

[@shainewhite2781]

I remember watching some of these films on the now Defunct UPN network.

[@emuwarrior7490]

In for a damn rabbit hole covering these movies. Look forward to seeing the rest.

[@j.j.cheesman7141]

The reminders to like and subscribe more often lately has definitely gotten you some likes this particular commenter would have forgotten to give, js. Awesome review as always!

[@DashingPunkSamurai]

I like how of the course of the series, the puppets go from villains, to antiheroes to hero characters. I also always loved the theme and music from the early ones

[@youngtate3891]

I'd kinda like to see that idea with Jason Voorhees. You can't make Freddy or Michael a hero. Jason is sympathetic & he kind of was the hero in FvJ.

[@DashingPunkSamurai]

@@youngtate3891 Definitely. Especially since Freddy is a child murder. And possibly a child molester, but I don’t remember them ever coming flat out and saying that except in the remake, but that don’t count. Jason is definitely antihero capable as he is just get revenge for what happened to him and his mother, at least in his head that is.

[@dudarupaffu8736]

Just watched this movie with my gf recently. Absolutely fun ride

[@slutsandguts8146]

As a kid, I rented every Full Moon/Empire movie I could find. Maybe that's what's wrong with me.

[@thegreatstoneddragon9432]

Puppet Master? Hell, yeah! Can't wait for the whole series.

The thing I love about Puppet Master as they all have unique designs that you could find in a doll store

[@IXWabbitXI]

The sonic joke killed me xD

[@jeremysiron9622]

This is one of those movies that the cover art is what compelled me to rent it at Blockbuster video and that’s how I got into the franchise as a kid, back in the day that’s how you picked some times when you had no other criteria to go by you couldn’t just Google reviews it was all about the cover

[@mr.salvatorejpluchino8467]

AMAZING THEY ARE JUST BLATANTLY COMING OUT TO OUR FACES

[@theotherghostgirl337]

pin through the heart was an old school Victorian way of seeing if someone was dead. The idea was that if they were alive the pin would move with their heart beat. Obviously it wasn’t very popular because even if it did prove they were alive, they probably wouldn’t be for long

[@RunyaEithelNar]

I love the german gag xD And creative naming of video parts and "like and subscribe: segment :D. Movie looks interesting and nice that they added cute dogat the end :).

[@CRAZYMAN-yv5qc]

So I will be honest I saw your update video and you talking about this in it and how it was a good step forward. I have been watching you for a long long while now and happy to say I love the come back with everything. Great to see your doing good. Was gonna also say I miss your video game videos as well and you playing series but I understand that doing this channel full time can be a lot but regardless always loved your videos and your reviews!

Thanks!

[@KingMasadaX]

@DeckerShado I have an interesting request, Dee Snider's StrangeLand, Robert England is in it, it's a 90s cult movie that I believe deserves more recognition for how much it pushed the boundaries & was ahead of it's time.

[@ironreed2654]

His bloods green because that's the secret sauce they fill the muppets with, if it wasn't clear in this movie it is in other parts of the series.

[@yupanquid5538]

I love the shirt selection this season!! And great use of the CC! Cheers Decker

[@JenMistress]

You surprise me, Decker. Thought you were going to announce at the end it was THE SUMMER OF PUPPET MASTER. 😉 Not sure what you have in mind this year, but guessing that isn't it.

[@wanderthisworld97]

13:26 "One snap later and Dana is hobbling around like her leg is broken, BECAUSE IT IS!" hahahahahaha Hoping this is the start of the SUMMER OF THE PUPPET MASTER!

What? No Summer of Puppet Master?! Whatever you have planned for the summer better be greater than Puppet Master 4.

YES! I know most of these movies are goofy but its ,my favorite franchise even if the last...several movies where..not great. Glad you picked this one Decker.

[@GameplayandTalk]

Aw man, I was half expecting this to roll right into "The SUMMER OF PUPPET MASTEEEEEERRRR!!!" (I mean, it seemed logical to me in the moment, given how many damn sequels there are).

[@peterludwig4599]

Awesome. When you want to cover entry in the franchise it will be late 2023 until you finish. There are a lot of entries, spin offs and remakes.

[@markpugh6808]

Nah you can pretty much binge watch the entire franchise over a few days they aren't super long movies

[@peterludwig4599]

@@markpugh6808 True. But Decker covers one movie a week at best, copyright strikes and more are battling with the schedule. That can make for a long marathon. And beside that, from 3 onwards the quality becomes more and more non existent with each movie. Even Asylum made better movies and I fear that Decker will not hold up at some point.

[@RaginCanadian-gx2zl]

THANK YOU LMAO. I was like how tf is no one seeing the puppet run. And yeah the opening had me confused a bit to. And even tho they dont look threatening i just assumed they have supernatural traits so since hes the strongman puppet his punch is probably the force of an average or above average man.

I’ve been wanting a puppet master review from you Decker! Thank you so much!

[@goodvibes3939]

F yes! I grew up on puppet master, hellraiser and beetle juice. Thank you for this awesome review Mr Decker

[@morphman86]

Now we're all waiting for the ultimate sequel: Puppetmaster X In a non-descript year sometime in the near future, all puppets are for real definitely destroyed. But in the far, far future, Earth has become uninhabitable and mankind has sought refuge on other planets. An expedition to Earth finds a pomeranian in pristine condition, who has somehow survived everything... for a very long time. They take the dog with them to space, where the pomeranian uses Ancient Egyptian Magic to give life to some space junk and wreak havoc on the ship.

[@TomTom.o.]

Muppet Paster! Nostalgia. The best miniature punches ever.

[@alankohn6709]

I did like the premise that the puppet weren't evil but the master which is why I like the puppets as good guys in later movies. It was a nice change from the time worn evil toys trope. I do wonder how much of a fan o this movie was the writer of Vibes because there are a few bits that seem familiar

[@Animalover205]

I was hoping Decker was gonna call it the summer of puppets lol

[@brianmartin6486]

The most recent one with Thomas Lennon ( yes THAT Thomas Lennon 😅 ) and Udo Keir wasn't bad , it fumbles at the end a bit but still worth a watch.

The puppets are made of wood and polish.. so they don't rot. What was Neil's long term plan with his dead meat suit?

[@rockbottom2822]

I don't know about the ending though Decker but I think a _Hot Dog Zombie_ movie could take place in the "Thankskilling" cinematic universe. Always remember: sex dolls are alive in the Toy Story universe.
