The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

Set in Berlin, Germany circa 1941, "Puppetmaster III: Toulon's Revenge" naturally finds the titular puppets battling Nazis who are intent on using their magic for evil (you know, something more evil than stop-motion puppets coming to life to kill). A prequel to the improbable DTV franchise, "Toulon's Revenge" brings up a few inconsistencies with the previous films, all of which are forgiven for the sake of entertainment.Like the previous "Puppet Master" flicks (and every other Charles Band/Full Moon production), "Toulon's Revenge" is low on production value and often skimps on cohesiveness. The real meat of the story concerns Andre Toulon, the Puppet Master himself, and the origins of his deadly minions. We are treated to an explanation of his work, as well as the introduction of Six Shooter, a six-armed puppet with the tiniest bullets ever seen by Nazi eyes. Unlike other films in the franchise, the victims here truly deserve everything they have coming to them, which only ups the entertainment value. A "Hellraiser"- esque scene where the head Nazi is strung up as a living marionette is truly a must-see moment."Puppet Master III" is not fine or remarkable film-making. What it is, however, is perfect late-night and/or sick-day fodder. Pure entertainment that will slap a grin on any B-movie fan's face. It also happens to be arguably the best entry in the entire series and makes for a perfect entry point if one finds the task of hunting down the seemingly countless sequels a bit too daunting.

PUPPET MASTER III: TOULON'S REVENGE🌕🌕🌕🌖🌑 3.9 A very good addition to the series. The puppets are looking good, especially six-shooter, who is an awesome addition to the puppets, and he really does some damage which was fun to watch. Also the villains and other side characters kept things interesting, along with Guy Rolfe as Toulon. He's perfect for the role. So with all this, you get a great little action horror with a chilling climax and the making of leech woman. This film is my second favorite I the series my first being PM1, and my third, PM5: the final chapter. I recommend this too fans of the rest of the series, or similar horror-revenge stories. It is very enjoyable, and has a stead plot.

I was hoping this was going to be Sequel to the Second, which kind of make the end of part useless. This movie now prequel and back in 40's or 50's when there a war going on. I liked the fact we get see how some Puppets came to mind however this movie were I think they lose there Creepy factor. The plot was decent, it flowed really well thought-out the movie, there were some bloody moment but nothing to gory. The acting wasn't to be in this movie, it's can be wooden now and again, I thought it was decent I give this movie 5 out of 10, Same and the first one, I don't think it was good as the second one.

The most imaginative and best-acted title in the long-running PUPPETMASTER series, Part 3 is actually a prequel that details how Andrte Toulon came to create his puppets during the dark days of World War II. The Nazis wants to use Toulon's secrets to create an army of the undead, and that's when the fun begins. Toulon sics his killer puppets on the Nazis, to spectacularly bloody effect. The puppets are the good guys in this one. What also makes a huge difference here is the introduction of Guy "Mr. Sardonicus" Rolfe as Toulon, a role he would essay in two more sequels. Rolfe is a great Toulon, a charismatic and even sympathetic character who loves his deadly puppets as only a papa creator could. Rolfe lent an air of integrity and distinction to the series. Part 3 is a great little B-horror addition to the series that was shot on the Universal back lot instead of Europe to surprisingly solid effect. A must-see.
