“Chucky is one mean SOB”
I hate dolls just about as much as I hate aliens. Truth, I hate dolls with red hair most of all. Sorry Chucky, I guess that makes me a doll “hair-ist”. Unlike most horror films of the 80′s, Child’s Play, doesn’t consist of brain lacking teenagers, no over the top nudity, or really even a super high gory body count. Just the same, it does have a pretty nifty and original story line that bases around a serial killer who transports his soul into the body of a child’s toy. Then of course, mayhem ensues and you have witty lines such as “Goodnight asshole” coming out of a doll’s mouth.
Even cooler, it’s predominately filmed in the great city of Chicago. Yes, I may be biased on that. You have no idea how many times I’ve trolled past 2800 N. Pine Grove Avenue and been a total creep. Well, or maybe you do, and I’ve dragged you along with me. I never claimed to be a “normal” friend. Chucky obviously likes to chop stuff, but this time, we’re going to keep our food PG, our guest’s intact, and just focus on a super easy yet tasty side dish. Don’t worry your pretty flesh eating little heart though, dessert is when the real mangling begins.
