Child's Play 2 (1990)

Sorry Jack... Chucky's back!

After the events of the first movie, play pal toys acquired the crispy remains of the doll that was once claimed to be possessed by the lake shore strangler.

The company decided to rebuild the good guy doll from what salvageable remains it had. Soon thereafter, murder ensues.

Andy has been adopted by the Simpson family due to the fact that his mother has been locked up in the insane asylum for her testimony in the killer doll case.

He find a Good Guy doll stashed in his closet that the family had bought for him and in an effort to impress his newly adoptive parents, Andy decides to act like he is fine with the doll by bringing him around with him wherever he goes. Until it is actually revealed to be Chucky himself who came back to try and take over Andy's body once again.

Greatest kill of the movie by far has to be when Chucky goes after Andy's teacher. Just a classic moment in horror!

I love this movie, I think it is due to the upgrades in the special effects department which helped make Chucky look (for the most part) fluid in his motions and movements. Also a big part I like about this is the improvement in speed Chucky has as opposed to the first film.

I have to give this movie an 8.5 out of 10. The third and final kills are more or less the reason why my rating is so high. The final kill is just gold, what better way to take out a serial killer?

Child's Play (1988)

Charles Lee Ray is on the run from the law and they are closing in on him.

Ray gets shot and run into a toy store in order to gain some cover.Ray happens to have an amulet that allows it's user to transfer their soul to another human or object.

As there is nobody around, Ray is forced to send his soul into one of the "Good Guy" dolls on display at the store. Thanks to this, the doll has now come to life and is ready to get back out into the world to find a suitable replacement for his body. Preferably that of a young boy named Andy's, the dolls new owner.

This movie never seems to get old to me as, in my opinion, still holds up to today's standards.
There are several awesome scenes in the movie, such as the car scene where Chucky tries to kill the cop while he is driving around. As well as the voodoo scene in where Chucky confronts the man who taught him how to send his soul to different beings, about the possibility of staying stuck as a doll for the rest of eternity.

The kill scenes are awesome and seeing a doll running around the house holding a knife has always creeped me the hell out. It just looks so evil and weird!

In closing, I have to give this movie an 8 out of 10. Again, I think this movie still holds up on its own to this day due to it's originality and the amazing special effects for it's time that were used in most of the scenes.

Next up I will be reviewing the sequel to this classic!
