Chucky’s back! The notorious killer doll with the satanic smile comes back to life in Child’s Play 2 depicting the terrifying struggle between young Andy Barclay and the demonic doll trying to posses his soul. Despite being roasted to a crisp in his last escapade, Chucky proves that you can’t keep a Good Guy down, and returns from the ashes after being reconstructed by a toy factory to dispel the negative publicity surrounding the doll. Back in one piece Chucky tracks his prey to a foster home where the chase begins once more.

In my opinion Child’s Play 2 manages to exceed the original and is all together a more entertaining movie to watch. For one, we get to see far more of Chucky in action than in the original, preferring to lure his victims into a trap and then savour the looks on their faces, rather than disguising himself. Although there have been no major improvements in the animatronics of the doll, Chucky himself is a lot more expressive and life-like. He is no-longer a toy that hides under the sofa, he now has a personality, and is even more foul mouthed and wise-cracking than before.

The ending is great fun and is set in the "Good Guy" factory amid moving conveyor belts, hydraulic presses and moulding units. Definitely the best of the first 3 Child’s plays, and more true to the series than Bride of Chucky. Quite possibly The movie that set Chucky’s feet firmly in the horror hall of fame, along with Jason and Freddy as a horror icon of the 80’s. One thing though, i hope when ciao say "chucky 2" they mean childsplay 2 otherwise i just reviewed the wrong movie :(
