[Doc Faustus]

Chucky is a cool killer. He just stars in lazy movies. Child's Play has terrible acting, massive plotholes and very little going for it but a killer doll. Once you get past the idea that a doll is killing people, these movies have nothing. He's not even the first killer doll in movie history. Child's Play had enough plot potential for an episode of Tales from the Darkside, but four movies? Hardly. And these remakes are nothing but glossy, humorless, insincere attempts to capitalize on socalled classics. These movies are only classics because people's knowledge of the genre is so limited. There were much scarier and cooler movies being made in the 80s without Freddy, Jason or any of the typical franchise killers. Franchise horror hasn't been the best horror going since Universal was making movies in the 30s and 40s, and even back then, the best movies they did weren't part of franchises. Some cool things you should see:
Phantasm
Reanimator
Videodrome
The Brood
Zombie
Evil Dead
The Hitcher (ORIGINAL ONLY)
Near Dark
Texas Chainsaw Massacre (ORIGINAL)
Tenebre
Pieces
Tales from the Darkside: The Movie
Creepshow
Hatchet for a Honeymoon
Bay of Blood
