The greatest movie ever!

Far from Perfect, Far from Terrible

If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

...which is to say, Tony "Candyman" Todd, who in his waning years seems willing to take a role in any piece of crap that his agent recommends. And make no mistake, "Shadow Puppets" is crap, a prime example of Sturgeon's Revelation, and an utter timewaster in almost every respect except in the service of adolescent voyeurism. Badly written and directed by a nobody who even had the nerve to cast a related nobody in his turgid "thriller" (and I use the term in full sarcasm mode), "Shadow Puppets" has few redeeming aspects, most of them skimpily concealed by tight ladies briefs and t-shirts. Aside from the aforementioned slumming Todd, this money-down-the-drain video fodder features James "Angel" Marsters proving why he'll never be a film star, Jolene "Star Trek: Enterprise" Blalock proving why she'll never be cast for anything beyond her good looks, Natasha "True Blood" Alam, ditto, a handful of others in search of a paycheck, and one of the hokiest and unconvincing CGI critters ever to disgrace a screen. Whoever greenlit this junk should be ashamed, and it cost $2m dollars? You've got to be kidding me. I'd rate it lower if not for the geek value of cameltoe hunting and the evidence of Tony Todd's fall from grace. You've been warned, and indiscriminate library purchasing agents should know better than to waste public monies on rack-filler like this.

What can I say? I'm a big fan of horror (as well as science fiction, and anything generally weird). If you too are a fan you will be entertained by this movie. It's a "trapped-and-hunted" movie which is a common enough plot idea, but the delivery had some originality and was very entertaining.Basically, an unlikely mix of people (one's a nympho, for instance) wake up (separately) to find themselves in a cell in underwear with no knowledge of who they are or where they are except that they are captives of some sort. They are able to leave their cells and walk around and in so doing they eventually run into each other. There mission is of course to find out who they are, where they are, and generally: What the heck is going on!!! I don't want to say anything more and ruin it for the rest of you. Suffice to say that you will be entertained, especially if you are into horror and sci-fi like I am. Finally, it's really hard to find a good scary horror movie these days, isn't it? Sometimes I think it's a lost art and nobody out there really knows how to scare the crap out of you anymore. In fairness, maybe it's harder to scare today's crowd who've been there, done that. I guess we've lost our innocence and the challenge for any moviemaker these days is to find the child in us and say- "Boo!" Love, Boloxxxi.

It is the actors and director voting 10 for themselves giving the movie a good rating to make it sell better. Notice that when a really bad film gets good reviews (around 7-10 in rating) it always have a lot of good comments about the "actors" in it. This movie is nothing but a ripoff, mastery of bad acting and a script who makes you wanna scream in agony. The parallels between Cube is so clear it is sad. Also, compare the plot summary with the film Unknown (2006) and you'll be surprised (or maybe not). If I was a part of this movie I would see the result as a complete failure and quit my job. Voting 10 for your own mistake is nothing but pure scam. These persons should be ashamed. I am, for their miserable sake.

Don't waist your time.I believe the writer, after seeing cube and saw, decided he would write and direct something similar. And to make things more interesting, would add some ghost stuff. Well i believe this idea sucks on its own (you don't just decide to "hey, Godfather was a hit, I think I'll make something likewise", and then start writing a story), but what makes this even worse is that Micheal (the writer) has no creativity. The story is dull and dumb. Period.Suspense, yeah, for the first 10mins, cause you have to wonder whats going on. But once you are made to understand, you go "Oh my god,.... is that it???" and turn off the movie.Its not exiting, its not trilling, and its definitely not worth any ones time.
