Based on the Charles Band cult classic, the new reimagining of the PUPPET MASTER series has been garnering rave reviews for it’s over the top gore and dark humor. The story: Edgar is recently divorced and returns to his childhood home where he finds a nefarious looking puppet in his deceased brother’s room. He decides to sell the doll for some quick cash at a small-town convention celebrating the 30th Anniversary of the infamous Toulon Murders. All hell breaks loose when a strange force animates the puppets at the convention, setting them on a bloody killing spree that’s motivated by an evil as old as time.

PUPPET MASTER: THE LITTLEST REICH hits theaters on August 17th. See more info on the new film – and watch its trailer – in our earlier report, here
