This is actually for [livejournal.com profile] leimon_malakoi should she get around to reading it. And for the [livejournal.com profile] fishy1 and [livejournal.com profile] scraun23, should they be interested, and I keep meaning to ask [livejournal.com profile] troyfish if he's seen these.

Anyway! Scary Czech puppet movies! Faust and there's also one called "Alice" (a la Lewis Carol) where most of the characters are puppets, but Alice switches back and forth between a little girl and one of those old fashioned creepy china dolls, which is not actually listed on imdb for some reason.

These are weird and dark with kind of a nightmarish badly lit junkshop sort of atmosphere. Jay made me watch them in the summer of 2000, so they've both been around for a while (and who knows, there might be more?) This is the Faust where most of the characters are puppets, and when the live-action "hero" makes the bargain to get the girl there's this awful scene where he has to turn the (human-sized wooden) puppet upside down and take a drill to her. They're all sorts of freakish and disturbing, and so all you freakish and disturbed people should track them down and see them. :)
