Child's Play
While being chased by Detective Mike Norris (Chris Sarandon), Charles Lee Ray, a serial killer known as "The Lakeshore Strangler" (Brad Dourif), is shot and mortally wounded. Before dying, Charles takes cover inside a toy store, finding boxes of talking "Good Guy" dolls and then uses a voodoo ritual to transfer his soul into one of the dolls. The store is then struck by lightning and it burns to the ground.
Later that morning, 6-year-old Andy Barclay (Alex Vincent) tells his widowed mother Karen Barclay (Catherine Hicks) that he wants a Good Guy doll for his birthday. Unable to afford the full price, Karen buys a stolen doll from a street peddler: the same doll Charles Lee Ray transferred his soul into.....More>>

Child's Play 2
Two years after the events of Child's Play, Andy Barclay (now eight years old) is placed in a foster home after his mother Karen is taken to undergo psychiatric evaluation for supporting her son's story about a killer doll. Meanwhile, Detective Mike Norris has been threatened into dismissal from the police department. Bad publicity about Play Pals, Inc. (the company behind the "Good Guy" toy line) is all over the newspapers regarding Chucky. The company has the original doll reconstructed for analysis, and a worker is electrocuted during this process. Chucky is brought back to life due to the accident and manages to find Andy at his foster home.
Chucky disposes of the foster home's Tommy doll (that completely resembles him) and takes its place, then sneaks into Andy's bedroom and ties him up in order to begin transferring his soul into his body. Before he can complete the spell, Andy's foster sister Kyle suddenly sneaks through his bedroom window. Confused, Kyle tries to help untie Andy, but their foster parents Phil and Joanne unexpectedly arrive and accuse her of tying Andy up, despite his pleas that the doll is alive....More>>

Child's Play 3: Look Who's Stalking
Eight years after the events in Child's Play 2 the Play Pals Inc. toy factory is dusted, swept, and reopened for business. The workers create a new Good Guy doll from Chucky's (voiced by Brad Dourif) plastic remains; however, serial killer Charles Lee Ray's soul still inhabits the remains and Chucky is revived. Play Pals Inc. re-releases its old "Good Guy" toy line, believing that their bad publicity should have abated after so many years. CEO Chris Sullivan takes Chucky into his office, where Chucky tortures him to death with dangerous toys before using a computer in the room to relocate Andy Barclay.
Andy (Justin Whalin) is now 16 years old, and has been sent to military school, having failed to cope in several foster homes. Colonel Cochran (Dakin Matthews), head of the military school, begrudgingly agrees to let Andy in, but advises him to grow up and forget the killer doll fantasies. What happened to Andy's foster sister Kyle is never explained....More>>
