"PUPPETS IN MOVIES" UPDATE:

There's a good behind-the-scenes section in the DVD version of this comedy
featuring ghost make-up tricks, a boxing cat puppet in "Here Kitty Kitty"
(mech shown with skin off face), a cool special effects tour, and more.  We
chased the cast around with our bunraku skeleton puppet (supported on a
rolling boom arm expertly rigged by Dave Kindlon at the AM! mech dept.).
That skeleton looked great and cost $200,000 less than the Computer Graphics
dept. wanted for the same shots!

AM! worked with other effects shops, including Doug White (made & played the
Marijuana Plant) and Mark Rappaport (did the clown puppet) on this sleeper.
The Lot was full of puppeteers!
