Even though Child's Play has never been my favorite horror film franchise, I have to admit that the original movie definitely makes an impact. Maybe it's because I grew up in the 80s and really wanted a My Buddy doll as a kid, but there's something inherently scary about an innocent toy coming to life and trying to harm others. That being said, I also have a hard time believing that most humans couldn't easily overpower Chucky. Plus, child actors don't always give the best performances. Nevertheless, I think Chucky deserves to be a horror icon, even if this movie didn't really deserve any sequels.
