Needless to say that I had never heard about the 2019 horror comedy "Puppet Killer", prior to sitting down to watch it here in 2024. But with it being a horror comedy, then of course I had to sit down and watch it, regardless of not knowing what I was in for here.
Writers Kevin Mosley and Lisa Ovies put together an enjoyable script and storyline. I have to say that I was genuinely entertained throughout the course of the movie. I just don't understand the part of about the grown ups being in school, where they supposed to pass as college students or high school students? It just made zero sense to me.
I was only familiar with actor Richard Harmon of the entire cast ensemble in the movie. However, it should be said that they had a great cast ensemble, and the actors and actresses definitely put on good performances and brought the characters and story to life on the screen in a nice manner.
The killer puppet, Simon, is just a hilarious addition to the movie. It added a lot of flavor and comedy to the movie. And I will say that Simon more than makes it well-worth sitting down to watch "Puppet Killer".
"Puppet Killer" pays homage to the classic horror movies of the 1980s and 1990s, and does so in an enjoyable way, and with Simon thrown into the mix, what is there not to love about "Puppet Killer"?
If you enjoy horror comedies, then you definitely should take out 83 minutes of your time to sit down and watch this 2019 movie from director Lisa Ovies.
My rating of "Puppet Killer" lands on a six out of ten stars.
