Curse Of The Puppet Master
''Curse of the Puppet Master'' is a 1998 direct-to-video horror film written by Benjamin Carr and David Schmoeller, and directed by David DeCoteau. The sixth film in the ''Puppet Master'' franchise, it stars George Peck as scientist Dr. Magrew, who experiments with transforming humans into puppets. While ''Puppet Master 5'' was intended to be the final installment four years earlier, financial success and fan demand spawned ''Curse'' (which borrows quite heavily from the 1973 eco-horror film ''Sssssss''), serving as a standalone sequel that promptly revived the series, which has been ongoing since. Plot The film begins at ''The House of Marvels'', a doll museum, where Dr. Magrew (George Peck), stuffs something into a crate, before driving into the woods and setting it on fire. The next morning, Magrew's daughter Jane (Emily Harrison), who has just returned home from college, asks her father about his assistant Matt. He tells her that Matt left because his father was ill.
