Movie title
Should this movie really be listed as 'Robert A. Heinlein's The Puppet Masters'? Wouldn't 'Puppet Masters, The' be shorter and simpler? After all, that's how the movie is listed on IMFDB. I understand about the potential for confusion with the Puppet Master franchise but this movie name is plural and it has 'The' added, PeeWee055 (talk) 11:55, 28 February 2014 (EST)
- I agree. Kooshmeister (talk) 20:43, 30 September 2021 (EDT)
Unidentified Weapons
Handguns
Barnes (Bruce Jarchow) pulls a snub-nosed revolver from his desk drawer in an attempt to kill Andrew Nivens (Donald Sutherland) and Dr. Mary Sefton (Julie Warner).
An agent named Purvis (played by an uncredited actor) carries a gun when he, Sam (Eric Thal) and Alex (Keith David) find Jarvis in the bathroom.
One of the possessed Secret Service agents tries to draw his sidearm when Nivens' men interrupt President Douglas' (Tom Mason) abduction, but is shot before he can use it.
There are also various unidentified (and possibly unidentifiable) seen throughout the movie.
Rifles
Higgins (Benjamin Mouton) carries a scoped hunting rifle when he goes to investigate the alien landing in the forest.
Alex Holland (Keith David) and other agents investigating the fake alien ship in the woods carry assorted assault rifles.
Brande (Dale Dye) uses an assault rifle to fire at the possessed people from a helicopter in order to cover the escape of Sam and Mary who have saved a little boy from the aliens.
One of the mind-controlled people uses a rifle on the roof of the city hall parking garage.
Dart Guns
Some of the agents working for Nivens carry gas-propelled dart guns which they use when they need to take a possessed person alive.
