The Puppet Syndrome is a curious blend of dark drama and psychological exploration, wrapping around the idea of obsession in a very unsettling way. Peter's fixation with puppetry serves as a metaphor for control, and watching him create Lisa is both fascinating and troubling. The practical effects, especially in how the puppets are utilized, add a gritty texture to the film that heightens the tension. It's not your typical love story; there's this constant undercurrent of rebellion where Lisa fights against Peter's manipulation, making the atmosphere thick with unease. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the viewer to linger in Peter's mind, which is where it gets truly unsettling. Performances are raw, especially from the leads, making it a distinctive piece that leaves you pondering long after it ends.
