Stephen TramontanaGUEST
He had a deal with Paramount.
Stephen TramontanaGUEST
They made Puppet Master and they made Trancers and they made Subspecies.
Stephen TramontanaGUEST
And two of their, let's call it like B franchises, were Dollman and Demonic Toys.
Stephen TramontanaGUEST
And they got this idea, because Charlie is like a comic book fan, that he's like, what if we started mashing all these guys up? And the original idea was to do Puppet Master versus Demonic Toys, which was made later by the Sci-Fi Channel.
