The motel at Bodega Bay was a tiny, the size of a refrigerator. When the filmmakers located the ideal site, they suspended the model in mid-air and employed force perspective to make the hotel seem to be present. Five people were needed to move the Blade puppet.Dolls, an earlier Charles Band production about lethal toys, served as inspiration for the film (1986).Director David Schmoeller admitted in a 1999 interview with horror movie website The Terror Trap that he was not involved with the rest of the Puppetmaster (1989) series, aside from a character credit, because it would reveal someone other than Full Moon CEO Charles Band was responsible for the creation of Full Moon's most famous franchise.Schmoeller was never asked to provide a director's commentary when the first "Puppetmaster" film was released on DVD. He said in the same interview that Charles Band still owed him residuals. David Schmoeller's favorite puppeteer, Klaus Kinski, inspired the puppet Blade.Band drew a six-armed Ninja with firearms in his early sketches of puppets. In Puppetmaster III: Toulon's Revenge, the idea for the puppet Six-Shooter is found in this puppet (1991).Originally set to hit cinemas in the summer of 1989 and home video in September, the film was moved back to October 12, 1989 as a direct-to-video release after producer Charles Band indicated in an interview that he would earn more money in the DTV market than he would in the theatrical market.In 2010, creator Charles Band planned to rework the original film.

The majority of the score for this movie is comprised of synthesizer arrangements of Pino Donaggio's music from The Tourist Trap (1979), a film with similar themes on which director David Schmoeller and producer Charles Band had previously collaborated. This score was used for this movie as well. Band's inspiration for Puppetmaster stems from his early days at Empire Pictures. In 1984, he worked on The Dungeonmaster (aka Ragewar), which many fans adored.When he made the decision to construct a film based on live puppets, he remembered how much positive feedback he had received from The Dungeonmaster, a film that he had always been attracted by. As a result, he wanted to create a film based on live puppets.Then, he just chose to call the movie Puppet Master. Blade is the only character whose costume does not change between films. Blade is the sole puppet to appear on the VHS, DVD, and Blu-ray covers of the Puppetmaster Films. At the start of the film, the puppet Blade, who lacks lungs and other internal organs, exhales loudly and sounds out of breath while sprinting.In addition, the other puppets' panting, groaning, and moaning can be heard throughout the picture. Even though they are all unable to communicate verbally.
