    For a supposed final film, The Final Chapter is a mess that lacks anything to truly engage the viewer. I know that this series meant to be tongue in cheek, but really there are better films in the genre considering. There really couldn't be anything to peak your interest in this ... read moreone, this film suffers from everything which made the sequels so tiresome. The film is poorly done. Again, we have a film which has decent ideas, but they never really come to fruition. The film bad, and has nothing to truly entertain you. If you're hoping to an end to this series, you'll be sad to know that The Final Chapter is not the end. How can the studio keep these awful films coming, you ask? I really can't answer that, but it's always the same, to milk out a series to the fullest until it really has nothing left to give. With this fifth entry, you realize that there are no more decent ideas for films. Everything that would have made an interest film is not present here, and it's simply a waste of celluloid. There's simply nothing to works here to elevate this film to a memorable or good status. This is a film that is dull, boring and poorly done. With every sequel the studio puts out for this series, every film fails to be truly good entertain, and ends up falls flat right from the get go. If you think this so called final chapter is bad, wait till you watch the sequels that came after it. Either way, this should truly have been the real ending to this series that never should have existed. Puppet Master did not need ten sequels. Not the last chapter and it's a pretty bad flick.

    Terrible. Following events of the 4th Puppet Master movie, we have more bad Totem Puppets attacking, crooks breaking into the good-puppet's haunted castle. There was no sign of the computer whiz kid from the 4th movie, and not much mention of the silly Decapitron puppet which was... read more introduced previously. Not very enjoyable. The story didn't really stand well on its own, and seemed like leftover scenes from the 4th movie. Bloody awful.

    The first hour is mostly people wandering through a hotel, which makes it slow and kind of boring. It doesn't pick up until the end and even that is anticlimactic. Worst entry in the series.
