Full Moon recently started taking a different approach to their long-running Puppet Master franchise. Rather than continue making Puppet Master movies that feature multiple puppets, they’re now focusing on solo puppet movies. These solo spin-offs got started with Blade: The Iron Cross in 2020 and continued with last year’s Puppet Master: Doktor Death. Now, in a new episode of his Full Moon Universe YouTube show, Full Moon founder Charles Band has announced that the next entry in the Puppet Master franchise is the solo puppet movie Puppet Master: Furnace Leech Woman
When the malevolent Dr. Hauser, the Third Reich's maddest scientist, rises again with murder and mayhem on his mind, psychic journalist Elisa Ivanov awakens her own angel of death in Blade.
Doktor Death comes crawling out of his trunk and is unleashed into a ramshackle nursing home.
Puppet Master: Furnace Leech Woman is a planned third solo spin-off film (the first two being Blade the Iron Cross and Puppet Master: Doktor Death). The movie was confirmed on Fullmoon Features' official vidcast in March of 2023. Not much is known about the movie at the moment, though it is a solo movie all about Leech Woman and picks up after her demise at the end of Puppet Master II. The movie will also be written by C. Courtney Joyner, who wrote Puppet Master III: Toulon's Revenge and Puppet Master vs. Demonic Toys.
