Puppet

About This Movie

Puppet brings a visceral atmosphere that's hard to shake. The film plunges Ash into a nightmarish realm, where masks morph reality and trauma festers in every scene. It's not just a horror flick; it's a deep dive into psychological horror, where the tension ebbs and flows like a cruel tide. The practical effects add a tangible texture, making the surreal more horrifying, and you can feel the weight of Ash's past in every performance. It’s distinctive in its approach, blending the uncanny with a raw exploration of trauma and freedom, which gives it an unsettling depth. You almost feel Ash’s plight as if it’s your own, and that’s where it strikes a chord.

Puppet is one of those films that doesn’t pop up often in discussions, likely due to its obscure status and limited releases over the years. Early formats were primarily VHS, making the original tapes a bit harder to come by and now of interest to niche collectors. The scarcity of physical copies has fueled a kind of underground appreciation, with collectors often on the lookout for any remastered editions or late releases that might capture its haunting essence more effectively.
