I remember this was asked on here before. Was this recent? It does sound like Dead Silence to me.
It's not that sadly. It would have been around the early 2000's. From what I remember it had the appearance of a made for TV movie or a TV show. It definitely wasn't a big budget feature film.
Was it a British show by the chance? Where did you see this?
I'm 99.99% sure it was British. It was broadcast and I watched it in Britain.
This possibly could have been broadcast as a snippet on the channel 5 TV show Out There (or something similar) but I can't find any information about the film/tv show anywhere. Possibly some cult film or obscure TV movie. I remember an oldish man in his home who had a suitcase which contained the puppet (not sure if it was his suitcase or if he was given/found it) and when he sat by his window in his living room a scary pale puppet of (I think) a woman came out of the suitcase (It had pale clown like make up and a black outfit) the puppet was alive. The man thought he was going mad he stuffed the puppet in the suitcase, took the suitcase, left the house and threw it over a bridge into a river. When he got back to his house he made a drink and went back into his living room which was now unnaturally dark and the suitcase was back again. The puppet came out and spoke to him again this time angry, possibly killed him but I don't remember it that well. That's all I remember. Does anyone have any ideas of what it could have been?
