Transfering souls (or whatever essence you think is inside humans) into dolls is not a new idea. It's kinda new for the Puppet Master series maybe, but yeah been there done that. And done a lot better. That is Puppet Master in general and the idea if we want to be specific.This may be one of the weaker entries (although others may argue that it never had a high point, entry number 12 still out in the open and any further entries that may come after that), but it defines the legacy of it all. And legacy is just another entry of it the whole thing ... Great puppetry and nice special effects overall, if you are into that kind of thing

Curse is probably the loosest movie if you're following the Puppet Master series chronologically being somewhere jumbled up between the original and the second movie. Being a fan of continuity I struggle liking the film as much as I could have. I have a guiltily liking for two of the main leads being Dr. Magrew and his daughter Jane. The movie had a potentially strong story if it remained a little dark and cheesy instead of being flat out silly at points. There weren't enough puppet scenes either seemingly they recycled some old footage they didn't use for previous films in this one to save a few bucks. A lot of fans gripe about the movies end but in my opinion I thought it tied the story together nicely like a bow and it made a legit cool cliffhanger. As far as it goes with the other Puppet Master films I saw it's pretty much on par for the course, not terrible but not good by any means.

A scientist (George Peck) attempts to master the art of transferring people's souls into puppets.With the film directed by David DeCouteau and edited by J. R. Bookwalter, you may not know what to expect. Bookwalter is pretty great, but does it show through with editing? DeCouteau is very hit and miss, with many more misses than hits. His Full Moon days may be among his best work, and that is not usually a compliment.Despite being a short film, they used a good deal of recycled footage from earlier films in the series (which is something the series as a whole tends to do). If you cut down to only the new footage, the film may be an hour long... maybe.

Okay, who the hell is this Doctor Magrew and what ever happened to Rick Myers? Just because Rick wins against the forces of Sutec, doesn't meant he series of movies is over. There is always new evil a foot. Plus did the Puppets turn against him or what? Where did this Doctor Magrew come from? How did he learn that the Puppets could movie on their own? Why did Charles Band stop working on the Puppet Master series, what happened to the promised Puppet Wars? These are questions I want answers to. As for the curse of the Puppet Master, it takes forever to get going, you barely see any of the puppets in the movie, it's mostly about Tank. But still it's not totally a waste a time I give it 7 STARS to the series, but fans of the series will be disappointed. Charles please get your Puppets back!
