Review of Child's Play (1993) by Lindsey D — 03 Jun 2012
A mediocre horror film that later became a bad series of films. It isn't a horrible film, but standing among films such as "Halloween" or "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" there isn't a whole lot it offers. There are moments that are scary but due to the lack of subtly in the film, there is no real surprise to any of them, and therefore a total lack of substance to go along with it.
No one even acts badly in the film, especially Brad Dourif, but it fails both as a comedy and as a horror film ultimately. Maybe if they had tried not to hold our suspense they may have gone in a better direction than they did.
