Puppet Master is one of the longest-running horror franchises, but you rarely hear it mentioned with the same reverent tones as Halloween, Friday the 13th or A Nightmare on Elm Street. It’s the story of a puppeteer named Andre Toulon who, in World War II, brought his creations to life to murder Nazis. Years later, his puppets did the bidding of whoever owned them, and were - depending on the movie - either ruthlessly evil or violent antiheroes.
