Featured reviews
This movie start off just Day after Puppet Master 4, which I thought was decent idea, to give a hint of first in it.
This movie did have bit more of plot then the one before, everyone from last movie turn, even Sutekh who creates a new creature.
This was entertaining to watch and it's never it's boring at all as them movie flows really well..
The acting was decent in this movie, better then the one before.
I give this movie 5 out of 10
I going to skip sixth, really messed thing up with no Torch and bring back Leech Woman, when she killed in part 2!
By missing 6, Part 7 is sequel to Part 3 ?

First of all don't believe ALL of the harsh words that were said about this film. In my opinion it is definitely worth a try. Part six was MUCH worse. This one was creative and different as each movie in the series. I know what I am talking about; I've been a huge fan since I was a kid, I've seen all of the movies, and I even own a Blade replica. Maybe the reason why I liked this movie so much is because when I first saw it I was very young (yet at the same time an obsessed fan) and found the plot perfect for me: all of our favorite little puppets, including a very cool new one who only appears in parts four and five, are this time completely good and fighting pure evil and equally small enemies. It was neat seeing the puppets really work together, it was neat seeing them interact and communicate with humans in a friendly way for a change, and it was also neat that there was sequel that I could actually watch with my family. (keeping in mind that I was young and that the other films were much more "hard core", not that I didn't love the carnage candy myself) The point is we know that while these puppets are good they have done a million ultra-violent,perverse,maniacal, and destructive things, which makes a perfect stand off between our little anti-heros and the absolutely evil demons. And a lot of fans seem to forget that the puppets did not turn good, but in fact were always good. If you've seen part 3 you would know that they were nice people in life, and if you are a steady viewer in the puppets adventures you should notice the fact that the puppets up untill know have killed for only two reasons: survival or because their master(s) forced them to. So give the flick a try, I know that some of you will not like it but it is one of my favorites in the ever-expanding Puppet Master universe.
Certainly not the 'final chapter' and though sometimes subtitled 'the latest chapter' this is also true of Puppet Master 2, 3, 4 and the other sequels. Filmed concurrently with Chapter 4 (NOT back-to-back as often mis-claimed) this has the same director (Jeff Burr) and most of the main cast - though yummy Teresa Hill is in a coma and Gordon Currie beefcakes his way through police questioning and whatever with the help of sex interest (not love) Chandra West. English actor Ian Ogilvy joins the English (and frankly quite amazing) Guy Rolfe as Toulon. Ogilvy plays a villainous doctor wanting to steal the puppets secret but of course has to battle with the lovely puppets, their saviour Gordon Currie and the Egypyian God, Suketh and Mr Totem from the third film. Many of the extras in this one (including the thugs that Ogilvy hires to steal the puppets) are actual animators and special effects people so its fun to see them acting alongside that which they normally create. Toulon barely features again and its truly a pity that the team at Full Moon couldn't produce a stronger story and one where Toulon could truly feature (Guy Rolfe was deceased before any demanding sequel was made). Not sure why this seemed better than volume four but it is less dull and the English/Canadian cast make good viewing. Top scenes include menacing Six-Shooter fires the fingers from Totems' claws and a dream sequence (usually so tedious) where Teresa Hill (the psychic from number four who is in a coma now) is orgasmic in a blood filled bath tub as Pinhead holds her head as Tunneler drills her skull - it's a job to explain why this scene is so great but see it and you'll probably agree. Special mention for Jester because he rocks and in a way his head rolls!..!
Filmed back to back with Puppet Master 4, this film picks up just 24 hours after the last one and the Demon itself transports itself to our world to finish the puppet master.
Again, as with all the Puppet Master Movies, switch your brain off and just sit back and enjoy - Do not try and make sense of the plot as the Movies are quite disjointed and out of chronological order.
Its more of the same silly fun as last time. Effects are as excellent for the time as they have always been, especially for a low budget production.
That said, the film has also managed to pull in Major talent in the form of Ian Ogilvy - A very well respected actor who plays a perfect slime ball as always...

I recently rewatched Puppetmaster V (1994) on Amazon Prime. The story continues with the college genius who has taken over as the Puppet Master after WWII, now in police custody after losing control of the puppets during their ongoing battle with an ancient spirit. The police bring him back in, hoping he can regain control of the puppets and stop the chaos. Meanwhile, the puppets have their own plan to rescue him while finishing off the spirits from Puppet Master 4.
Directed by Jeffrey Burr (From a Whisper to a Scream), the film stars Gordon Currie (My Blue Heaven), Chandra West (White Noise), Ron O'Neal (Super Fly), Teresa Hill (Bio-Dome), and Ian Ogilvy (Death Becomes Her).
Puppetmaster V maintains the same quality as Puppet Master 4, with a weak storyline and execution that doesn't quite match the stronger entries of the first three films. The acting is serviceable, but the real fun remains in watching the puppets in action. The film wraps up the story arc from Puppet Master 4 effectively, while leaving room for the series to explore new directions.
Overall, this is a must-see for fans of the series and horror enthusiasts, but it falls short of being a classic. I'd rate it 5/10.
