Full Moon’s Puppet Master: Axis Termination, the 11th film in the franchise, has begun production with the goal to have the film released in early 2017.

A statement from the press release explains, “…the film will feature a very ambitious 2- to 3-month FX schedule with several amazing FX teams involved, using a combination of many types of effective, including rod puppetry, animatronics, and some stop-motion animation!”

Photos from the set have been released and one in particular reminds me of A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors, where Freddy’s hands end in injection needles so as to murder Taryn. You can see the pictures below

Directed by Charles Band, Puppet Master: Axis Termination stars Diana Prince, Tonya Kay, and Rob Vardaro.
