Child’s Play

Brad Dourif, a serial killer is killed by police while hiding out in a doll factory. As if a serial killer in a doll factory wasn’t creepy enough, Dourif invoked a voodoo curse to transfer his soul into one of the dolls. That particular doll, nicknamed Chuckie, is unwittingly purchased by Catherine Hicks for her son Alex Vincent. Several murders occur shortly thereafter; all evidence points to Alex, who insists that his cherub-faced doll is responsible. Detective Chris Sarandon, the man responsible for Dourif's death, doesn't swallow Alex's story, but he agrees to investigate because he's sweet on Alex's mom.
