160 Attack of the Puppet People ( 1958 )

This  one  was  directed  by  Bert  Gordon a  man  responsible  for  quite  a  few  stinkers  in  his  time. This  one  doesn't  deserve  such  a condemnation  but  it's  not  quite  all  there  either; the  last  half  hour  or  so  is  silly  rather  than  scary, wasting  the  suspense  built  up  to  that  point  and  the  ending  is  seriously  lame.

Sally  Reynolds  answers  a  job  ad  for  an  office  girl  at  the  workshop  of  a  doll-maker  and  retired  theatrical  performer  Mr  Franz  ( John  Hoyt ). Her  predecessor  has  disappeared  without  trace  but  she  is  distracted  by  the  courtship  of  hunky  Bob  Wesley  ( John  Agar ). When  he  goes  missing  and  a  lifelike  doll  of  him  appears  on  Franz's  desk  she  know's  something's  up.
