Back to 1939 we go, with starts off with footage from the beginning of 1989's original film, where Andre Toulin committed suicide. The film follows what happens immediately thereafter, with a young man, Danny, finding the puppets and taking them under his wing. There's nothing great about the dialogue or acting, or story for that matter, but it was an interesting enough continuation of the story. We have two Nazi spies posing as Americans (but they don't even have German accents, so they're not credible Germans either) who work together with a Japanese woman, who is also after the serum that brings the puppets to life. There's a lot of back stabbing and double crossing here, but there are just way too many conveniences and plot flaws. Also, why did Danny trust the puppets so easily into helping him, and how did he know they would or even could, as he knew nothing about them? And why did the puppets trust him in return? The puppets look rather lifeless.

The puppets are lifeless and the film riddled with plot flaws.
