Among the notable horror icons of the 80s that spawned endless sequels of varying quality, few are as weird as the phenomenon of Chucky - the child’s doll possessed by the spirit of a psychopathic serial killer who dabbles in voodoo. First arriving in 1988, Child’s Play was a modest success that was buoyed by an interesting concept and some first-rate practical effects work that helped propel it into the Horror Hall of Fame. But is it still any good? We haven’t seen the sequels, but decided to catch up with the original to see if it still holds up. Please enjoy our look back at Child’s Play. Chuck You!
