While the Puppetry is excellent, the movie is not. Needlessly gruesome and just doesn't understand when to let a joke end

it’s bad, but has some funny moments. good to watch late at night with friends, but there’s much better movies out there.

What a bizzare movie. Gross, juvenile, but kinda charming. It's not the best but it's worth a watch for the novelty alone!

Decent potential, squandered by a lack of competent comedy writing.

It's almost as if they shot the trailer and then just filled in the gaps. The rest of the movie feels like they weren't even trying.

An awful piece of trash this is. It's just a porno with puppets.

Lots of teenage jokes. Glad I didn’t pay to watch it.
