Over 30 years ago, horror fans were introduced to cinema’s most infamous, beloved, and fun-sized slasher – CHUCKY. While he has had quite the success on the silver screen and small screen, we’re going all the way back to where it started. Don Mancini’s original terrifying Child’s Play, directed by Tom Holland (no relation to the friendly neighborhood one), paved the way for the killer Chucky doll to become the formidable horror icon that he is today. Child’s Play 2 (directed by John Lafia with a screenplay by Don Mancini) ups the kill count, wisecracks, and special effects even if the terror takes more of a back seat this time around. But which Chuck is the one that you don’t f**k with? Only one way to find out: FACE OFF!

This episode of Face-Off was written by Eric Walkuski, narrated by Shawn Knippelberg, and edited by Lance Vlcek.
