Puppet Master 5
Puppet Master 5 - the Final Chapter, isn't the last movie in the series, but it does essentially end the initial Andre Toulon storyline. In fact there are now 5 more movies which use the Puppet Master name, the most recent being released in July, 2010. I've had a great time with the first four, each one adds it's own mark to the series, but PM5 is the first actual continuation in the series from the previous movie. It takes place just a few days after the events of PM4, so you definitely need to see that one first or at least read my review.
Bubba Ho-Tep
Chances are you know what/who Bubba is - some Southern guy, a redneck, trailer trash, you get the picture. But what about Ho-Tep? I bet you didn't know it was a descendant of the 17th Egyptian Dynasties. Well I didn't know that either until a few hours ago. I bet you also thought that Elvis died of a heart-attack, and that JFK was killed in Dallas by Lee Harvey Oswald. I also would bet that you had no idea all those things could be thrown into a movie, and that said movie would answer the age old question: "Is there finally and really anything to life other than food, shit, and sex?" - Elvis
Puppet Master 4
With the 4th installment of Puppet Master we jump back to the present, well the present of 1993. As we know from Puppet Master 3, Andre Toulon has made his way to the United States to escape the Nazi Gestapo. In part 1 Toulon committed suicide at the Bodega Bay Inn to keep his pursuers from gaining the secrets to reanimating the dead. But his formula and research wasn't completely lost. A group of scientists, including young Rick Myers, are very close to uncovering the secrets to artificial intelligence. To find it they must battle some strange little foes, but not the ones you are probably thinking.
Hatchet
When I saw Machete in the theater back in August they played a metric ass ton of trailers, they always do! After the trailers they played their little theater introduction and then low and behold, another trailer. This one was a little different though, it had that Grindhouse feel to it just like Machete a few years back. It showed a monster of a man, the so-called new icon in horror Victor Crowley, absolutely destroying a bunch of people who had no idea that death stood right around the corner. I looked at my friend and said "it's a shame that's just a fake trailer, Hatchet 2 looks like it would be great!" But why did they skip right to number 2, where was the original. A few weeks later I saw a listing for Hatchet 2 at that same theater, it was real... even though it only lasted a week on the big screen! So I had to seek out Hatchet and find out what all the hype was about.
