I really enjoyed this movie.I always liked horror movies about living toys,dolls or puppets. This one is about a kids show's star puppet Charlie Chowderhead being willed to his TV co-star's grand daughter.Grandpa kept Charlie locked up since Circus Town's cancellation in the late 50's and brings him out during an interview with a young reporter big mistake! Casey is given Charlie by her grandfathers doting nurse Betty. Then the movie really kicks into creepy! Charlie is a frightening puppet (I wonder how he stayed on TV?) there are some creative kills,stunts,effects,great nightmare sequences and some very well done acting. I thought Erica Slider was very convincing as Casey, Nina Tepes as her friend Kat and Lavelle Claiborne as Tony were very entertaining. I really liked the flashbacks to the Circus Town show and set.The actors Tom Wooler and Andy Zavacky were perfect in their parts. As Rick Tom Wooler played multiple ages and his characters own father. If you liked Puppet Master type movies you want to check this one out!

The horror genre features stories that aim to elicit fear, suspense, and a sense of dread in its audience. Horror stories often explore themes related to the unknown, the supernatural, and the macabre, and they frequently evoke strong emotional reactions such as anxiety, terror, and unease.

Ringmaster Rick rose to success with his children's show, Circus Town, by making a deal with a demon to bring his marionette, Charlie Chowderhead, to life!
