A big decline from the previous Puppet Master film that doesn't make much sense and unfortunately the great Guy Rolfe hardly appears in it as Andre Toulon. The film locates itself back in the Bodega Bay hotel with the puppets, shorn of all menace, actually protecting the human protagonists who are four unlikeable and annoying people only one of whom gets killed. Shame the others weren't. The only character I liked was Felton Perry as Dr. Baker but he was offed far too soon. The puppets look fine as usual but that's about the only compensation from watching this dreary film. I suppose the cinematography wasn't too bad but after the first three films in the series this is a case of going backwards, not moving on.
