For me, the doll in deep red was about as creepy as a film set piece could go but I was wrong because the bad guy in these films is easily it's equal maybe even its successor.  Chucky, not a name that chills the blood, but seen as all the 'Good Guy' dolls have equally crap names like Billy and Zack.  Anyway the story of the trilogy (I won't mention "Bride of Chucky" because it does not deserve a place within this review) is that a murderer who was a practitioner of voodoo on himself & his victims, is killed.  But as with all horror films that isn't the end of him as he possesses the first humanoid figure he can grab . . . . a doll.

Although slightly smaller his evil is not diminished and he tries to transfer his soul into a human child before he is permanently incarcerated inside the doll.  Luckily that doesn't happen and Chucky is destroyed in Child's Play 1, and his chosen child is sent to an orphanage to live.

That should be that but the greedy toy company decide to re-launch their successful Good Guy range.  To assure their stock owners the bosses decide to dismantle the 'defective' Chucky to prove it was all in the little boys head.  Re-assembled and all the more evil Chucky decides to find the child he is after and traces him to a new home where he is cared for by foster parents.  The suspense in this one isn't as good in number one, but it has a kick ass finale where the unfortunate Chucky looses a hand, then his legs and then melted and then blown up!
 
 
 
 

This one kicks off where Chucky died, and you see the eerie factory being re-opened.  Suffice to say, Chuckys blood gets into a vat of melted plastic where he is re-made as another Good Guy doll!  This is the best film in the trilogy as it takes place in a military school the death toll is large, lets just say the paintball wargames turn into a live fire exercise after Chucky tampers with the bullets in the armoury.Not as much suspense as the imaginative deaths, though horrific are funny in a sick sort of way and the gore is saved for later on.  Now it is near to the end when it gets interesting.  Chucky makes off to a funfair and into a haunted house/ghost train and from there tries in vain to finally get a human body.  The gore here is excellent as Chucky looses half his head in a particularly gruesome scene and then looses both hands!  But, as usual the best death is last as Chucky is hurled to his death and into a huge fan.

I have purposefully been quite brief on all three as I felt that if I gave too much away there would be no incentive to rent or buy them for yourselves.  All three deserve a place within these walls, as good horror is rare to come across and it is even rarer to come across three consistently scary, creepy, well made, atmospheric, and gory films each one better than the last.
