The commentators are gathered (along with Chris Sarandon) for a making of called "Evil Comes in Small Packages (25 min.) that goes into the development and the making of the film. There's also a jokey "Chucky" commentary track by Brad Dourif for the Chucky scenes (26 min.). These people have a great affection for the movie, and are engaging throughout. The film comes with a commentary by Alex Vincent, Catherine Hicks and "Chucky" Designer Kevin Yagher, and a second track by producer David Kirschner and screenwriter Dan Mancini. Or, that is to say, there's a couple surround effects that work well in that regard. The picture quality is good, but as I said the film itself is ugly, while the DTS track is active, and useful for a film like this if you like being startled. A film like this works because it doesn't dawdle, doesn't let you see the strings (such as it were), and this is a solid piece of work all the way around.Ģ0 th Century Fox's Blu-ray presents the film in widescreen (1.78:1) and in both 5.1 DTS-HD and in the original 2.0 Stereo surround mix. But the main thing is that the film has the smarts to be 87 minutes long.

It's dirty looking even in a pristine new 1080p transfer. The exteriors at least feel like a city, and not a Canadian one, but there's always been something a bit ugly about the movie. It was shot in Chicago, which gives the film an interesting look, albeit a slightly cheap one. The premise is simple "demonic killer toy," and the filmmaker delivers on the premise. Soon enough the cop on the case, Frank Norris (Chris Sarandon), is being attacked by Chucky, and the threat of a killer doll is made tangible. But the doll Karen gets for her son is possessed by the spirit of bad guy Charles Lee Ray (Brad Dourif).Īt first Charles pushes a woman out a window, and Andy is put in a situation where the adults believe that maybe Andy's gone psycho, but the film gets that out of the way like two horny people kissing. To horror and Science fiction, shows like that and Outer Limits have to be like The Simpsons is to South Park).

Catherine Hicks stars as Karen Barclay, whose son Andy (Alex Vincent) is a huge fan of Good Guys, a TV show with dolls that talk (the supplements don't suggest the combination of the talking Teddy Ruxpin, and the Cabbage Patch Dolls, but that seems to be the toy, whereas there was a Twilight Zone with a similar premise. There's not a lot of fucking around, and it sells that the dolls is animated, which is the feat with a show like this. But Child's Play works because it's a Twilight Zone episode brought to life. Alas, his follow ups were not as promising or entertaining. But with this and Fright Night, he's definitely one of the masters of 1980's horror. Tom Holland is easy to underrate as he fell off the map.
