This made-for-cable shocker was the evil alien spawn of two separate Full Moon film series, Puppet Master and The Demonic Toys. The grandson of original puppet master Andre Toulon, Robert Toulon (Core... read more read more...y Feldman) has inherited grandpa's secret formula whereby Robert and his daughter, Alexandra (Danielle Keaton), can bring puppets to life. This places the Toulons in the crosshairs of Sharpe Industries, led by evil Erica Sharpe (Vanessa Angel), who has entered into a pact with a Satan-like character to create an army of demonic dolls, to be unleashed on the helpless public on Christmas Eve. Marshalling her mechanical forces, Erica prepares to kill Robert and get her lunchooks on his animation formula. It is up to Robert's "reformed" band of puppets to fend off the attack of demonic toys Baby-Doll, Jack-in-the-Box, and Teddy-Bear. The Freddy vs. Jason of cheap cable horror flicks, Puppet Master vs. Demonic Toys debuted over the Sci-Fi Channel on December 18, 2004. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

    A crossover made TV film with the Puppetmaster characters and Demonic Toys might be a somewhat bizarre, yet interesting affair if it would have been done right. However, like with every other sequel in this mess of a series, Puppetmaster VS Demonic Toys is one of the most awful f... read moreilms in horror. I've seen a lot of films, but this one is bad, stupid with poor ideas on-screen. This might have worked if there would have been an interesting angle on the subject, unfortunately this feels like the scriptwriters just didn't care about the end result, and it clearly shows on-screen. Everything about the film suffers, from the cast, to the story to the directing, everything is poorly done and this film ends up like every other sequel in the series, an awful mess that isn't worth watching. The poorly written script is one of many bad things going wrong for this film. I hated the film, thought it was a waste of time. As a horror film, it fails, if this is supposed to be funny, sort of like a comedy horror film, well it isn't. I found it appalling at how bad this film was. The film should never have been made and there's nothing to enjoy about the film. There was potential in the film, and if they would have done it in the series early years, when the sequels weren't as bad as they became in subsequent years, then maybe this film would have turned out good. Unfortunately this is yet a film that misses the mark, and isn't worth watching.

    This is my first Puppet Master film, and even thought the third in a series; I must say it's pretty enjoyable. As most people are have a phobia of clowns I enjoy them, more teeth the merrier I always say, also the collection of Puppet master toys is pretty cool also. But when you... read more have someone playing the Dad Part have him be the correct age of part being played. More of a Teen horror type movie, in line with the Freddie series. Its worth 3 1/2 stars

    The Puppets have YET another master (Corey Feldman), who treats them like his little pets.

    When the Demonic Toys start causing trouble around Christmastime, a goofy policewoman is led to the Puppet Master and his stash of good puppets.

    The battles which take place between ... read moreare short and very disappointing. I felt like this was a poor job. There was little to enjoy here...

    Oh yeah, Anchor Bay made a terrible DVD cover which didn't match the other discs in the series.

    I have seen all the Puppet Master films and I must say that this is a few rungs below the originals! I was entertaining, and Corey Feldman needs a few more acting lessons, but don't give up on this just yet! There is a pleasant suprise at the end. Continue past the credits and yo... read moreu won't be dissapointed!

    It Honestly wasn't that bad for a sci fi movie
    the puppets just looked and moved gay
    I was just looking to kill time and this is all this
    movie should do for people

    First of all, this is a Sci Fi Channel quality film, so that should tell you everything you wanted to know about it. Second of all, sorry Charles Band, but this was TONS better than most of the Puppet Master movies.

    It's a silly silly movie but funny too at the same time. The fight between the demonic toys and the puppets was short and considering the fun that's the whole premise of the movie, it should have longer.

    Another disappointing, long-pined-for crossover. The showdown is kinda entertaining, and it gets points for comedy/characters. However, other than that, this is basically a soulless z-movie >.>

    Wow. I loved this movie soo much. Feldman: She thought I was sexy.
    Kid: Yea until you started playing w/ your dolly.
    Feldman: I wasn't playing w/ my... Dolly?
    Wow. That was supposed to be perverted. Oh you gotta see it.!

I do believe this movie was loosely based on William Shakespeare's The Tempest, but I could be mistaken. Full Review
