re: Child's Play is getting a remake

As absurd as the story was, Child's Play 1 is actually a decent movie. It was "in on the joke", yet still managed moments of actual horror. The build to Chucky coming alive was well paced in that it took it's time, and Chucky only revealed himself as sentient when he absolutely had no choice (being threatened with immolation in a fireplace).

"I'll teach you to frick with me, you filthy slut" is a wonderful line coming out of a ginger doll in overalls.
