Puppet Master: Axis Termination


Just got ahold of a copy of this gem to add to my Puppet Master collection. Now just to wait for the Littlest Reich to come out later this year!


Puppet Master: Axis Termination is a 2017 Puppet Master movie which continues where Puppet Master: Axis Rising left off. It was the last of the Axis movies which was announced by Charles Band on September 2015. The movie began filming in September 2016 and was directed by Charles Band.

Timeline: This film falls in the Puppet Mater timeline right before the original 1989 Puppet Master movie.

Plot:

In PUPPET MASTER XI – AXIS TERMINATION, the final chapter of the AXIS Saga, we find our heroic band of lethal puppets—BLADE, PINHEAD, TUNNELER, JESTER, SIX SHOOTER and LEECH WOMAN joining forces with a secret team of Allied Operatives, all masters of psychic powers, as they face off together against a new bunch of evil Nazi adversaries and their collection of vicious Axis Puppets in a showdown that will decide the future of the free world!
