Child's Play 2019 is probably the first movie that we've reviewed that I can whole heartedly say is so bad that it's good. This movie has almost nothing to do with the original movie, and makes a bunch of bizarre choices, but in the end it is very entertaining. Child's Play 2019 Poster https://youtu.be/ZFy8ZgLd574 Child’s Play can be found in theaters now, and you can also watch the original for a limited time for free on amazon prime. Synopsis Child’s Play 2019 is a hard reboot of the 1988 film of the same name. However, it bares little resemblance to the original. Basically the only elements that hold over are… kind of the design of the doll, and that there is a doll, and that it’s name is Chucky. Child’s Play 2019 tells the story of a child’s doll for teenagers that looks like an anime version of a little person, and has the voice of a middle aged man talking in a child’s voice. This doll isn’t like any ordinary doll, though, it connects to your home automation system! Because that makes sense. Also, the doll has an advanced AI that it uses to learn how fun it is to kill people.  Check out Child's Play 1988Watch the Original on AmazonChild's Play 1988 Check out Child's Play 2019Watch the Full Movie on AmazonChild's Play Remake Review of Child's Play 2019 This movie is kind of a hot mess, but it still kind of works. It’s the first movie that we are reviewing that I can give a heavy stamp of “So bad it’s good”. This movie goes beyond head scratching horror movie logic, and into the realm of the absurd. Watching the trailer and hearing about many of the elements of this film before hand, made me think several times “that’s a weird choice”. I assumed that upon watching the film that it would all come together and make sense as a whole. Nope. All those things still seem like weird choices still.  Why would you give a child’s doll home automation integration?  Why would a teenager have/want a doll?  Why Aubrey Plaza?  Why that face?  Why Mark Hammil as the voice?  These and other questions are answered with “because”. The movie suffers from the “and then this scene happens” syndrome, with very little happens in term or story arc after the initial set up of the plot. But who are we joking, it’s a movie about a murderous doll. This is not a thinking man’s movie, and really, in terms of entertainment value, this movie was enjoyable to watch. I laughed and winced several times throughout the movie, and I consider that a win in any horror movie. There are a lot of effective death scenes, and the schlock value is high enough to let me laugh off the bad jokes and ridiculous elements of the story. Remember The Original Child's Play?

This company has the worst business model that I can think of in recent movie history. What is the target market for a child's toy that integrates with your home automation and Uber equivalent? I try not to be a snob about movie logic, but in this case it actually pulled me out of the movie. But like I stated previously, this is not the thinking man's movie, and really, neither was the original. Instead of having a doll literally possessed with the soul of a serial killer, in this version, Chucky is a poor innocent AI that has had his safety protocols removed by a disgruntled Chinese factory worker.
