The puppets are back to
take care of some unfinished business by
resurrecting their master Andre Toulon
(Steve Welles) from the grave and a new
puppet joins them named Torch and gather
the brain matter that keeps all of them
alive and keep collecting brains.
Toulon however has a deadly plan of his
own in which he returns to his castle by
the ocean where he meets a new group of
Paranormal Researchers residing there and
Andre discovers a woman named Carolyn
Bramwell (Elizabeth Mclellan) who looks
just like his dead wife Elsa in which all
hell breaks loose and wants to keep her
for himself and to be resurrected into a
puppet with her so they can live together
eternally.
This sequel was
not as good as the first one but it
offered some good killings as well as
good effects on the puppets.
The story seems to go nowhere however but
Toulon trying to find resurrection as
well as pointless camera shots on certain
other things like a couple of farmers
being terrorised by the puppet's and a
child trying to play with one of them
thinking it's a toy. But there is a good
flashback scene about the Nazi's burning
down a puppet theatre and a bizarre
ending too to top it off.
The acting is
fairly descent as always since we have a
nice performance by lead actress Elizabeth
Maclellan showing her emoitons well
plus terrific energy with her actions and
words too.
Collin Bernsen looks like one of
those pretty boy types who can't act but
he seems to do okay but is not overlly
terrific but passable enough to oull his
part off.
Steve Welles brings the chram with
his role as Toulon and has a nice slick
voice to his part even if he is mostly
folded in bandages like a mummy.
Nita Talbott didn't have a huge role
in the film but yet she was very well
noticeable in her part living at the
castle.
Charlie Spradling shows
off her breasts while getting out of bed.
There's a butt shot on Collin
Bernsen while trying to defend
himself from a puppet at a bedside.
A person has his
head bloodily drilled by a puppet
Another puppet takes out a piece of brain
from a guy's head
A person is burnt to the crisp and their
eyes stabbed with black blood gushing out
A guys throat is bloodily slit
Toulon's face is scarred
A puppet Toulon is breaking to pieces
with green blood flowing out
We have a good
camera shot with some of the puppet's
digging up Toulon's grave and a camera
looking up with a corpses hand sticking
out.
We have a perfect spooked reaction on Nita
Talbott warning to others not to go
in some rooms telling them there's little
demons of some sort.
We also have perfect camera shots and
effects on the puppets attacking Talbott
and dragging her to the ground and
killing her.
There's many good shots on a puppet with
a drilled head drilling in Gregory
Webb's head as he reacts well to the
pain along with some of the other cast
members trying to get the puppet off of
him and destroying it.
There's a good shot on supporting actress
Sage Allen looking shocked as
well as a good shot on George Buck
Flower dead with the puppets killing
him as well as terrific shots on her
trying to kill them with a shotgun as
there's nice action on this direction.
We have a good presence by Steve
Welles approaching towards both
Elizabeth Mclellan and Collin
Bernsen having a dialogue with them.
We also have a good flashback scene that
involved both Welles and Mclellan
at a puppet performance theatre festival
with featured extra's playing NAZI's
burning stuff.
We spot a good shot on Mclellan
and Bernsen with their dialogue
along with a distance shot on Welles.
There's another good dialogue between Mclellan
and Bernsen near an ocean which
looked nice and emotional.
There's also a moment with bit part child
actor Alex Band near a campsite
playing with his soldier toy by using a
whip and then discovering one of the
puppets and playing with that one which
looked quite corny but the direction
leaves you an impression that the child
is looking for trouble.
We have a good lustful shot on Mclellan
and Bernsen in bed together.
There's a good shot on Charlie
Spradling screaming after
discovering that her boyfriend was killed
as well as her trying to crawl back with
a camera zooming in on her and one of the
puppet's approaching to kill.
There's a good battle scene between Bernsen
and one of the puppets.
We have a nice scene with Mclellan tied
to a chair in an attic with Welles
talking to her and then a nice appearance
on bit part actor Michael Todd
resurrected as a Puppet Toulon which
looked well done and laot great
suspenseful shots on the puppets
attacking him.
Richard Band is
back at it again. We have some good sexy
synthesizer playing for a romantic scene
which is different than the other stuff
used in the film which was borrowed alot
in the first one. But still it works
terrifically.
