In Spite Of A Poorly Directed Cast, Child's Play 2 Has A Sense Of Fun That Just Will Not Die.

Child's Play 2 (1990)

Child's Play continues the theme of ambiguity as to whether Chucky is alive or just a doll. It's a little late to do this now seeing as we all know for certain that he's alive by now, however the movie exploits the fact that there is still no one who believes Andy. (His mother is completely missing from this movie, presumably because they couldn't get Catherine Hicks back.) While we in the audience never seriously entertain the idea that Andy is the killer, we can see why no one else believes that the doll is alive.
