Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

Simply A Masterpiece

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Or something along those lines. I have mentioned the puppet work before, it's really good I think. Especially considering how budget that is. The editing I haven't mentioned yet, which also works wonders. Don't expect this to be polished or really good. But it does get down and dirty (pun intended), especially because they went for the R-rating.The first 10 minutes or so we get up to speed (if we haven't watched the previous entry that is). Which I guess is neat, but also kind of a cheap trick to save money. Running time isn't that much longer than the previous entries to the series, so there's that. All in all this plays along nicely in the whole puppet "universe" that has been created so far ...

The fifth installment is a direct sequel to the forth movie which follows Rick Myers the current Puppet Master expressed by Andre Toulon. This movie introduces a corporation's intent to steal the puppets led by the new director of operations for the Omega Project. I found this new storyline to sit well with the main villain being Sutekh, the puppet's arch rival. I digged the writing and characters in this entry, some funny moments too but the deaths could have been better. The continuality was nice to see too bring back the two main leads from the last movie however there wasn't much new development between the two of them. The growing of characters seemed to happen with the puppets were Blade could start speaking a bit saying "Yeah!" when he was excited to go back to Bodega Bay Inn with his fellow puppets. Puppet Master 5 is a good addition to the franchise and I'd recommended it to view directly following the forth if you're going to watch it. Solid movie, long live Blade!

Puppet Master 5 is nothing more than a boring rehash of the previous film, featuring the same demon from underworld (looking like a power rangers cast-off bad guy) sending a Giger-inspired (read: Alien rip-off)critter to Bogeda Hotel to kill people. Dull and overly long, I really wonder why parts 4 and 5 were filmed back-to-back- there's not enough plot, or variation or direction for 2 movies. It's a mystery to me.There are unintentional moments of hilarity though. Lauren, who spends most of the film comatose, seems to be there only to convulse and occasionally jump out of her bed screaming. Great characterisation (!) It's unfortunate because the initial set up- Rick Myers looks very guilty of murder, Dr. Jennings, a scientist being corrupted by a big organisation to find the the secret of the puppets, could potentially have led to an intriguing film, instead of the uninspired ' people wandering around a dark hotel and getting killed' number.Yes it's a formula that worked in the earlier puppet master films, but the characters had actual character, and weren't just cardboard cut-outs. As campy and hammy as they may have been, you felt for them. If I ever have a puppet master marathon, I can quite easily say I'll skip both 4 and 5- they really are the least inspired of the series so far.

This Film was a Perfect Horror Movie and a Mighty Fine Addition to the Puppet Master Series. It's not Different From Puppet Master 4 except a few Things. One of Them Being that Torch is Back! This Film, However, is Also a little Different from Part 4 because Now the Puppets are back to Slaughtering Humans. Why? Because as Well as Demons from another Dimension after the Secret, so are a Team of Scientists who The New Puppet Master was Working With. Stupid Traitors! But. Do you really Think a Team of 5 people can Outsmart a Gang of Killer Puppets? The Puppets are just nothing but a Pure Pleasure. Part 3 was a Masterpiece and Part 5 is not too far Behind. Why Did People give parts 4 and 5 Such a Hard time? I think it is the Simple fact that The Puppets are Good Guys. But So What? I am Fine with That as Long as They just look Scary and Chase Things Around The Old Hotel. Another Reason The Critics Dumped The Whole Series is That it was Labeled as a Rip off of The Child's Play Series. Even If It was, Who Really Gives a Jumping Fish? They are Cool and Scary, that is all that Should matter! People. Wake Up! If you Haven't seen a Puppet Master Movie I highly suggest you Do. The Movie Itself Consisted of Many good Qualities. One of Them Continuing The Plot from Part 4. But That's Not All! The Hotel was Dark and Spooky and Really just Gave Me The Creeps. As Well as A Bunch of Psychic Stuff that I Would never want to Spoil for You. The Puppets also Looked Like they were Walking. In Parts 2 and 3, The Puppets Sometimes looked as if They Were Hovering or Floating. At Least on Digital Video, This Film had Outstanding Sound and Picture Quality.Be Sure to Remember that it is Not the Scares or Thrills That Make The Movie, It's the puppets! The Puppets' Names are as Follows: Blade, Jester, Pin Head, Torch, Decapitron, and My Favorite, Six Shooter. Blade has Very Interesting Hands. One is a Knife, The Other is a Hook. Jester leads the Puppet Gang and When he Gets Violent He Throws or Picks up Things such as Hammers to Use as a Weapon. Torch has one Arm that is Really a Flame Thrower. Decapitron has a Head Which shoots out Electricity, He is The Most Powerful of Them All. And Finally, Six Shooter always has You In His Sights with his Six Pistol Packing Arms. All in All, There's no Escaping The Killer Puppets! The Demons are Also a Good Flick, But It's Hard to see the Puppets Become the Prey. I Liked The Directing Done by Mr. Jeff Burr, Who has Given us Such Pleasures Like: Stepfather II and Puppet Master 4. Good Acting Done by All Cast Members. The Score is Also Perfect. It's Better Than Any Other Sound track In History. It even Bets out Halloween and Friday the 13th. Was It Gory? To a Certain Extent. There was some Blood and A lot of Knife Wounds, But Nothing New. Perfect Movie. I Give it 10 out of 10. 20 out of 20. 100 out of 100. and so on. Not The Best of The Series, But I'd Say it is Probably The Fourth Best. Recommended to Any Horror Fan, Highly Recommended to Any Puppet Master Fan. If You Like Scary Movies, You Need to See This. Also Recommended: The Dead Hate The Living.
