Movie Reviews of The Puppet Masters
Movie Review: excellent
Summary: 5 Stars
The Puppet Masters is quite the excellent sci-fi movie with an alien theme.
This film has absolutely *zero* flaws. It's about a group of people who investigate a sighting in the woods where aliens make a surprise landing. From there, the storyline kicks in.
It turns out these aliens are not your typical big-eyed creatures that many people associate with the word "alien". Instead, these particular type of aliens are tiny stingray-looking, blood sucking creatures that attach themselves to peoples backs. When this happens, the aliens then completely take control of the human, and to add to the suspense, their personality changes as well.
It then becomes a suspenseful adventure figuring out which people contain the aliens, and who will be saved. In order to find out, the person has to take their shirt off to reveal the alien so action can be taken. Obviously if an alien IS controlling them, they won't take their shirt off willingly.
Julie Warner was quite the attractive woman for this film. I completely forgot about her as an actress. She does a great job in this performance. Donald Sutherland is an actor I never really paid a whole lot of attention to until I became a fan of his son Kiefer from the hit TV show 24. I certainly see some similarities between Donald and his son. Every once in a while the two of them will share similar facial expressions.
Anyway, the Puppet Masters is a really good film about aliens. In all honesty it's not a particularly scary movie- just a really good action film with the occasional startles and screams. I highly recommend it to all alien lovers.
