Maidgethma Wonderfully offbeat film!

Cathardincu Surprisingly incoherent and boring

mraculeated The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

Cassandra Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

swilliky Chucky (Brad Dourif) returns for a new horror in the sequel to the frightening classic original. Andy Barclay (Alex Vincent) has been put in foster care as the original story proved too crazy for the authorities. The toy company tries to cover up a PR nightmare by finding out what happened, rebuilding the Chucky doll in the process from the remaining eye. The evil killer takes his first victim by electrocuting a dollmaker. Andy is fostered by Joanne (Jenny Agutter) and Phil Simpson (Gerrit Graham). He still has terrible trauma and the sight of a Good Guy doll terrifies him. Chucky murders the toy company executive Mattson (Greg Germann) and discovers where Andy lives.Chucky destroys another Good Guy doll and replaces it with himself but he causes trouble for the two foster kids. Andy bonds with Kyle (Christine Elise), a young woman about to be out of the Simpson's foster care in a year, over their shared punishment.

shanerittersbach The year 1990 was full of supersizes, one of them was batteries included.WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD!Tom Holland's original horror masterpiece Child's Play form 1988 had left an impact on the world of cinema. One thing was for certain, the world of children's play things would never be the same. Chucky, the killer doll would haunt the dreams and nightmares of children and adults everywhere. His red hair and blue bib would become infamous. His laughs and cackles would become haunting, and his signature vulgar vocabulary would become a siren of terror for all those around!After the success of the first Child's Play Hollywood was ready to cash in on the success and not too late. It would be a year and a half before that good guy that everybody fears would grace the silver screen again to cause terror and mayhem. The sequel to the the terrifying .The script was written by Don Mancini, the writer of the original script and the concept of the films. The main script for the secret was written mainly by Mancini but a small portion of it was written by the director of the sequel John Lafia (Man's Best Friend). The film stars some old faces and some fresh familiars. The main star is Alex Vincent (Cult of Chucky), who played the same character, Andy Barclay, in the first Child's Play. Another cast member is Christine Elise (Body Snatcher's 1993) who plays Andy's loyal friend and companion Kyle. Once again, the great and wonderful Brad Dour if is back as the titular voice of Chucky the doll.The cast also includes some wonderful character actor's. Gerrit Graham (Terror-vision, Phantom of the Paradise) plays Phil Simpson, the jerk- off of the film. Then there is Jenny Agutter (An American Werewolf in London) plays Joanna Simpson, Phil's Wife, who are both foster parents. Next we have Grace Zabriskie (Galaxy of Terror) plays Grace poole, the local orphanage manager. Then we have the real wench of the movie, Andy's 3rd grade teacher, Ms. Kettlewell, play by Beth Grant (Too Wong Foo, Donnie Darko).The film also stars many wonderful practical animatronics by the master of puppets, Kevin Yagher (Tales from the Crypt, A Series of Unfortunate Events). The chucky doll is back and looks better then ever. There are a few new modifications to the look of the doll. The puppetry is amazing and makes the doll seem almost lifelike. The eyes on the doll alone are haunting and ominous. The music was composed by Graeme Revell (Sin City, Pitch Black, The Crow). The Music in the film has that haunting child-like tone that made the first film haunting and creepy. The score is great and bigger in scope compared to the first.The film is very well done and still holds up. The film to me personally is one of the greatest sequels to a film ever. Unlike many sequels to not only great horror films but films in general this sequel works a lot. I love the acting, Its very 90's. Brad Dourif does a wonderful job voicing Chucky. The music within the film is creepy and wonderful. The music is wonderfully composed. Overall, the film works. The movie is great and true sequel, Now i cant say that about Seed, but we'll leave that for another review.Two Poly Urethane Rubber Thumbs Way UP!!!!

Predrag There isn't much of a story to "Child's Play 2" however. It's just the same as the first, with Chucky going after Andy, who is now staying with a foster family, once more. The body count is higher and there are some good kills. I've heard people complain about the 'silly' spanking death of the schoolteacher. Well, this ain't true. Chucky is actually hacking at her. If you look closely you'll see the blood all over the yardstick.Director John Lafia shoots the film with a bright, playroom color pallet with a higher quality film stock, giving it a more sophisticated sparkle. He's also fully aware of how silly the killer doll concept is and seizes the opportunity for a little bit of that self-aware, sometimes sarcastic humor seen in the later films. Graeme Revell usually does the most generic horror scores, especially in recent years, but surprisingly he gives Child's Play 2 the best score of the series. With a full orchestra at his disposal, he doesn't hold back on the action cues and even delivers a couple of pretty good themes. So much better than the rotten score to the first film and probably one of the best horror scores of the early 90's.Overall rating: 7 out of 10.

jacobjohntaylor1 This is scarier then want a lot people would give it credit for. It scarier then the first child's play movie. It is very intense. Child's play is is scarier. But still this one of the scariest movies made before 1991. This movie has a great story line. It also has great acting. It also has great special effects. If you do not get scared of this movie then no movie will scary you. If you scared by Silence of the lambs or The Grudge or Child's play or The Cures of C.h.u.c.k.y then this movie should freak you out. This movie is a true horror classic. If you like really scary movie then you need to see this movie. This movie is a must see.
