Let My Puppets Come (1976)

Puppet Porno??? Mr. Damaino already had his spot in the industry, but come ON.This must be seen to be believed.It IS actual puppets. It HAS actual sex scenes involving said.I found this for about 6000 yen in Tokyo. (About 60 bucks.) I bought it to win a 20000 yen (200 bucks) bet that I wasn't making it up.It's a quick 50 or so minutes of the weirdest film anyone will ever find. Like a lot of bad sci-fi, the length is perfect. Just as you get hold of yourself, it ends.Blows minds regularly.

"Let My Puppets Come" is one of those curiosity movies due to it being a pornographic puppet flick. The movie concerns a few men (played by puppets) who need to make some quick money to repay what they owe to a mafia man. They decide to make a blue movie as a way to make that fast cash. "Let My Puppets Come" is full of comedy that falls flat. The human nudity is there without being titillating, and the puppet sex scenes are really not that interesting. There is one rather surprising (or maybe shocking) sex scene in which a puppet dog is involved. Luis De Jesus and Lynette Sheldon both appeared in the awful "Blood Sucking Freaks." Adult film director Gerard Damiano ("Deep Throat") directed this movie, and also appears in it. Another porn king, Al Goldstein, also appears in the movie. Adult actress Annie Sprinkle helped out with her production design. To sum it up, "Let My Puppets Come" is a rather bland and boring curiosity movie. "Let My Puppets Come" is a short (about 50 minutes in running time) motion picture for adults only, and is rated X for hardcore puppet action.

I just recently bought this film (which is very rare in Australia because of it's X rating) and I must say I wasn't expecting much. Let My Puppets Come did have a few laughs in it (some of which are unintentional) and does get better every time you watch it, however it still pales in comparison to Peter Jackson's muppet-bashing classic. I would still say it was worth the $3 I spent on it just to see another smutty puppets film (a 70's porn at that!) and Bloodsucking Freaks star Luis De Jesus in another film role. I would recommend any fans of Meet the Feebles to check out this little known classic. Oh yeah, and the X rating is because of the hardcore trailers at the end of the film (the Aussie video release), not LMPC itself, which as NO human sex scenes at all.

Allegedly the only sex film (actually, there is nudity but no sex- on the part of the humans, anyway) ever made with live humans AND puppets. With a classic smut director at the helm, more weirdness than even Meet The Feebles and TWO cast members from Blood Sucking Freaks- how can you lose?? Well, OK, actually it sucks, but you know you still have to have it- if you can get it!
