Shadow Puppets (2007)

My quick rating - 5.1/10. As I said, mediocre. I will say this, "Woke up not knowing who or where I am" flick really had something going for it. The moment I lost interest, they threw just enough at me to bring me back in. Well, that is what this one is, btw. People begin waking up in brightly lit psychiatric rooms (can I still call them rubber rooms, or has PC got their hands on that term as well?) and have to piece together who they are while trying to figure a way out. The environment they are in doesn't do much to clue them in either, but whatever is going on, everyone but them seems to have been killed. As they investigate around the facility, they encounter an evil force that looks quite silly with intention of killing them. Aside from the goofy entity roaming around, the camera work is really quite good. Acting left a bit to be desired, though. The moment there is some good in this, it turns around with blatant stupidity. Not going to go into specifics since the story this does end up telling was enough to get my attention. How they pieced together who they were before made the movie a bit more fun as well. Like I said, they throw the crumbs at the right times. The computer thing in this one is so bad it angers me, but not everyone will care about that part. Good late-night flick if it pops up on FX or SyFy, but I wouldn't go hunting it down. Oh, Tony Todd....that streak continues, average remains his body of work outside of Candyman. RIP Mr. Todd.
