Taking something that has so many emotional connections as a doll and turning it into this horrid lil killing machine.....strikes too close into my sense of balance... of what I will always see as soul comfort.

I will not re-watch this flick and I will never watch the sequals.

extremely average slasher that had an original gimmick which seems to have struck a chord with many, but not i. if it comes to picking a movie character that gives you a false sense of childhood security i'll go for pennywise. i just didn't buy into him. there are so many better baddies to choose from. even as a comedy its a million miles away from the bench mark that shaun... made.

There are jump scares, lots of creepy mood, a chilling soundtrack and tons of suspense.

And there are people who were so traumatized by the film (both my wife & my mother fall ionto this category) that they will not set foot in the ocean for fear of being eaten.

Any film with all these elements is a horror film.

Or just a scary adventure film. Either way I liked it.


Child's Play did nothing for me except give me hours of fun torturing my little sister with my little bro's "My Buddy".

I actually really like Child's Play, and a couple of the sequels, but at the same time I have never understood why it is as popular as it seems to be.
For what it is, it is pretty well done. But as others have said, I just can't find a doll all that scary, its just not that effective in that way. Its entertaining enough though, and Chucky moved very well. And I have to admit, there is one very good scare scene here.

I was about 6 or 7 when I saw childs play, it was pretty scary to me. And I actually still enjoy it now, even some of the sequals were enjoyable.

Nicely covered, guys. Of course it scared the bejesus out of us when we were kids, but now...nah it feels like one swift kick to Chucky's head and we get rid of the annoyance forever. Parts II & III and Son were extremely annoying btw. Bride was good because it FELT mature, so was the original.



Hmm...we have watched it, loved it, adored it...and some of us have hated it.

It was such a trendsetter of its time, and yet...some of us feel that it didnt quite live upto expectations...but why has

The Amityville Horror

not been a regular in the choices of anyone's list? Its rare to see the name come up in anybody's top 20...let alone a top 10.

Bring on the bashings, folks!!

Haunted houses are alot like killer dolls. Might be scary when your 8 years olds, but as an adult all you can think is, "Damn, this is stupid. George and Kathy, pack your shit and move already!"

I thought it was cool when I was a kid, I don't know if I outgrew it or saw it too many times, but it's just boring to me now.
