  Awful film. Tiresome and uninspired, this fourth entry abruptly changes direction from the last two sequels. Unfortunately the result is a very stupid film that tries far too hard at being a great tongue in cheeks sci fi horror flick. The film doesn't pay off, and it ends up being the worst entry in the first five outings. This film is painful to watch. If you're looking for a fun horror flick, this film isn't. Puppet Master 4 is a poorly crafted film of which no effort has been put into the film, you clearly see that on-screen. The cast are bad, and give awful performances, the directing is bad and it's clear that the director has no interest in trying to make a good film whatsoever. That's often the case with straight to DVD titles, there is no effort put into the films because no one will be interested watching them. The film has all the trademarks of what makes a bad straight to DVD title. The film looks cheap, just like every other film in this series, the story is minimalistic, silly and stupid and add to that a cast that can't act. This film is horrible, and is one of the most stupid films in this entire series. This film should be seen as a how not to make a film. Disappointing, and utter waste of time, Puppet Master is a horrible mess from start to finish, one that isn't worth anyone's time. Watch something else, you'll be glad you did, because this film is simply just stupid, and makes you wonder as to why you even watched it in the first place. Watch something different, as this is a stupid, pointless, poorly constructed film that never should have been green lit.

  The Puppet Master series is re-invented. The puppets gain a new master; a computer programmer techno-whiz kid. He commands them to do good things. A new ancient magic Egyptian mythology is introduced, with bad wooden creatuers called "Totems" causing a lot of trouble. The good puppets must fight them. The same castle on the cliff from the first two movies is used as a setting. I didn't understand the bit about the new "Decapitron" puppet being made. This one was a lot of fun; very enjoyable.
