The Puppetman, a convicted killer on death row, always maintained his innocence saying that it was an evil force controlling his body as he slaughtered his victims. Now Michal, the killer's daughter, begins to suspect that there may be some truth to her father's claim when those around her begin to die in brutal ways. She must try and break the curse of The Puppetman before all her loved ones are killed.
How scary is The Puppetman?
Nobody has rated it yet. Ratings on Scare Scale come from people who've watched the film, and score five kinds of scare out of 10:
- Gore
- Blood, injuries and body horror shown on screen. Violence that happens off-screen barely counts.
- Creepy
- Unsettling images, atmosphere and things that feel wrong. Not sudden shocks (Jumpscares) or waiting for something to happen (Suspense).
- Jumpscares
- Sudden shocks designed to make you jump, usually a fast movement or a loud noise. Not slow-building dread (Suspense).
- Suspense
- Tension and dread while you wait for something to happen. Not the scare itself when it arrives (Jumpscares or Gore).
- Psychological
- Horror that gets in your head: paranoia, madness, doubting what's real and ideas that stay with you. Not how a scene looks (Creepy) or feels in the moment (Suspense).
