Puppets

About This Movie

So, 'Puppets' from 2018, right? It’s one of those flicks that creeps under your skin. The story revolves around a dad, Jim, who gets increasingly unsettled by his young daughter’s puppet shows. There’s this eerie atmosphere that pervades throughout, really plays up the unsettling nature of childhood imagination turning dark. The pacing is deliberate, letting the tension build, which is nice. The practical effects, though, that's something else—really adds to the overall disquiet. It’s not just about scares; there's a lot to unpack with family dynamics and the fragility of innocence. Performances are quite solid too, especially the father’s descent into dread. Definitely has a raw edge that sets it apart from other horror dramas.
