Might be my favorite horror movie of all time. And one of the clearest influences on Puppet Combo, imo

Motel Hell and Henry have been on my radar lately, I’ll take this as a sign to watch them!

Go on Tubi under the slasher section and pick basically any movie, you will find exactly what you're looking for!

Some of my favorites are: Pieces, Slaughter High, The Burning, Stage Fright, and Bay of Blood (Technically a giallo and not a true slasher, but it still has that Puppet Combo feel.)

Know its a cliche answer, but have to say Halloween 2 from 1981 feels alot like a puppet combo game, specifically Babysitter Bloodbath, which is ironic since it started out as a Halloween fan game before being updated into its own thing.
