Crew or equipment visible: At the beginning, when the puppet Blade is racing around the Bodega Bay Inn grounds, he runs over to the car that had just pulled up. When the door opens and the two assassins walk out, you can see three crew members in the car door window reflection. Two of them are down on their knees holding the camera portraying Blade's birds eye vision. Another is standing on the grass watching over.

Although some people seem to comment 'cheesy' and 'childs play rip-off' I enjoyed watching it. I like Childs Play more than this but still Puppetmaster is well worth watching. Other people comment on the ending not being good and why would they do that? Well duh! Its so they could leave the door open for sequel (which they did) I thought the different puppets were cool coughing up leeches, drilling through people hey theres something for everyone! I think if you like movies like Childs Play or you like general splatter-fests then this is the movie for you.
