SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

How sad is this?
It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
View MoreI thought this was best one yet, (No, I am not Drunk lol ) I really enjoyed this one the most.I had fun of start to end of this movie, it's started of as Cheese as you can get, in the underworld of Hell (It''s kind of reminds of old Power ranger shows I used to watch when I was kid lol ) , the demon Sutekh send to of Totems which really nasty little creatures Rick Myers who ends up coming cross the Puppets and then bring they back for his own entertainment.Soon the puppets turn good and defend the Humans against the Totems and battle break with Blade and one of Creature. I love Jester face kept changing in fight scenes, I found it's really funny, I think could of helped that if thee kids in this movie instead of Adults.I can see why not many people like this movie, there was really limited on on kill scenes, there not many bloody moment. Some of the acting in this movie, as got to be worse anything in this series so. I think lead guy the only you acting didn't not bother me. Overall going to give this a 6 out of 10 (I was going give 7 but I was hoping of for more gore)I wasn't even thinking of seeing 5, i might end up having fun with it
View MoreToulon's puppets battle a bunch of gremlin-like monsters who want to steal the elixir from boyish young scientist Rick Myers (a lively and engaging performance by Gordon Currie). Director Jeff Burr relates the entertaining premise at a brisk pace, maintains a generally serious tone throughout, makes neat occasional use of funky stop-motion animation, and delivers a generous sprinkling of gore. This film further benefits from solid acting from a capable cast: pretty Chandra West as Rick's sweet girlfriend Susie, Jason Adams as smug and jealous jerk Cameron, and foxy Teresa Hill as sensitive psychic Lauren. Gulf Rolfe makes a welcome return appearance as Andre Toulon while Felton Perry has a regrettably small part as amiable scientist Dr. Carl Baker. The gremlin creatures are real gnarly. Moreover, it's cool to see the puppets as the good guys for a change. The tight 80 minute running time ensures that this movie never gets dull or overstays its welcome. Adolfi Bartoli's crisp cinematography gives the picture a pleasing polished look. Richard Band's spirited score hits the nicely spooky spot. Worth a watch for fans of this franchise.
View MoreA severe backwards step for the puppets in this mainly dull and tedious outing. Guy Rolfe, so fantastic as Andre Toulon in part three barely features this time and Richard Band's fantastical them tune appears with the puppets a fair few minutes in to the film. For the start of the movie we are introduced to the caretaker of Bodega Bay Inn (Gordon Currie) and some youth friends of his (many of the cast are Canadian and are all very good in unfortunately rather undemanding roles - Teresa Hill is quite yummy). Totems, minions of the Egyptian God Sutek want the secret of animation life back and the puppets (when they surface) act with a previously unseen cleverness to attempt to destroy the ugly and very computer game looking Totems. The Totems merely complicate the series and distract from the things that previously made the series so unique - they don't share the weird beauty of the puppets and thus don't really fit in. Top scene is Pinhead using a rag to clean blood from Tunnelers drill bit, classic and about the goriest this film goes. The fifth film was filmed concurrently with this one so expect similar sections of mediocre and a Toulon performance that seems to have been filmed in a different era (or even galaxy). Guy Rolfe deserved better and series fans certainly do. Grrrrrrr.
View MorePuppet Master 4 brings something new to the series by making the Puppets the main good guys and having them fight against a new foe called the Totems. It was actually cool seeing the Puppets teaming up to fight them. The plot sees a demon named Sutek who wants the secret of bringing life to inanimate objects returned to him so he sends some of his Puppets called the Totems who are controlled by the creatures inside the dimension, a high-tech corporation receives one of the Totems in the create and after being opened it attacks Dr. Baker and Dr. Piper. In the Inn a young employee Rick Myers who is also the caretaker for the Inn is trying to create artificial life but can't seem to make the robots work on their own, after his girlfriend, college and his girlfriend who is psychic arrive he shows them around and they find one of the Puppets, Blade lying around. Soon they find Toulon's puppet cabinet in one of the rooms but it's sealed up so using acid they break it open and find the other Puppets: Pinhead, Jester, Six-Shooter, Tunneler and Decapatron. They also find Toulon's diary and serum, injecting the Puppets with the serum they come to life again. Cameron and his girlfriend use a Ouija board to try and talk to Toulon but instead the Totems appear, then Rick must protect the secret and stop the Totems with the help of the Puppets and Toulon's spirit. They soon learn that to stop the Totems they need to use Toulon's unfinished Puppet Decapatron, Rick with the help of the Puppets go to re-animate Decapatron to stop the Totems from getting the secret. Puppet Master 4 is another good sequel to the Puppet Master franchise. Check it out. 10/10
