Even though this is the one entry that gathered a PG-13 rating, for whatever reason they went for that. It does sound crazy if you think of it. But here we are. And it does continue the story of the past one, and we do get the dolls we came to love (or hate, though why are you still watching if that is the case might be a valid question).This kind of marks an end to one sort of cycle. After this we got a movie that actually was 90 % highlights of previous entries (didn't actually count the percentage). Again really good puppetry and all that. Is it enough? Or are you just like me going through them all to hopefully get to the treat (Littlest Reich has quite some positive buzz to it)?

RETRO PUPPET MASTER🌕🌕🌗🌑🌑 2.5Not terrible, but a bit bland for my taste. It just gets a little boring after a while, there being only TWO puppet attack scenes, and no stop motion, just like part 6. This ended up making the puppets seem inanimate and almost unmoving. The acting is a bit wooden on young Andre Toulon's part sometimes, but the other actors do okay. The mummies are great, though. Very styled. The script is good, despite the not-so-great acting. And the plot is the main problem with this film though. Who's idea was it to have only two puppet attacks. Seriously. The two attack scenes have O.K. Effects, but are muffled by loud music that overrides the sound effects and action. Plus retro pinhead looks pretty bad. Recommended only too hardcore fans of the series, or younger audiences.

Now this is a movie I really dislike. It's one of the most boring Horror movies from the 90's mainly because it starts slow and centers in a boring atmosphere. The settings are not even attractive for the eye and do not serve for the movie's purpose. The puppets look really cheesy , not in a good way like in the Puppet Master 80's flicks. What did they do to our favorite toys?!The story is lame, not interesting and NEVER really explains the sinister origins of the puppets. There aren't death scenes like in previous movies and the f/x are terrible. I felt asleep the first time I watched it, so I can recommend it for insomniacs.

This movie was so stupid and dumb. I decided to watch it one summer afternoon in 2001. To my knowledge, I didn't know that they had made a seventh puppet master film. I only gave this movie a chance because I already had seen most of the puppet master films and I felt like this was a strong film franchise. I started to watch it with hope that it'll be good, like the first three Puppet Masters were. I should've known this movie would be trouble from the beginning! For one, how are you gonna rate a Puppet Master film PG-13? That takes the effect out of everything. SPOILERS: The killings didn't happen until the last 15 minutes of the film. What a bunch of crap! Was the director's goal to make a non-violent horror film. If it was, he succeeded. This was undoubtedly, the worst one I've seen in the series so far. This movie should be burned. Stay away from this one.
