Quint chats up Don Mancini, David Kirschner and Michelle Gold about the CHILD'S PLAY REMAKE and the new DVD!!!

David and Don by Wee Willie	Aug 19th, 2008 09:50:17 AM
I was a production office monkey on bride of Chucky years ago and can say that these two guys are a class act all the way. Very nice and courteous, and great to work for.
brad being back is awesome by Bouncy X	Aug 19th, 2008 10:01:53 AM
i wonder if they'll give him an on camera cameo at the beginning to play charles lee ray like in the first movie. either way its great that he's involved and it'll still be a puppet so thats cool too. that special edition sounds great, it just needs a blu-ray release. :P
is this a first? by Bouncy X	Aug 19th, 2008 10:03:14 AM
this must be one of the few if not the only horror movie franchise thats had so many sequels and the creators have been involved in every single one, and directly involved too since he wrote em all.
Bouncy by Quint	Aug 19th, 2008 10:04:05 AM
I'd love it if Charles Lee Ray actually played a bigger part than he did in the original. Where the soul transfer doesn't happen in the first scene, but maybe at the end of the first reel, some 20 minutes in. But maybe that's just me.
Saw Child's Play at my 10th birthday party by toshiro-solo	Aug 19th, 2008 10:09:14 AM
And Quint's right - this movie scarred me in a way too. Great interview; these folks seemed like nice, level-headed people. I'm still wary of the need for a reboot, but at least it seems to be in good hands.
mixing child's play with problem child is understandable by Bouncy X	Aug 19th, 2008 10:16:51 AM
they're both little redhead boys who've caused havoc to john ritter, in one case leading to his death even.

I'm Up for a Reboot by kevinwillis.net	Aug 19th, 2008 10:19:02 AM
The more comedic sequels have never done it for me, but the first Child's Play is still a classic in my book. One of those movies I caught on HBO, had no real interest in it, and I just got sucked in. One of those movies that, at the end, I was so glad I ended up watching it.
Does anyone else agree with me.... by StrokerX	Aug 19th, 2008 10:32:23 AM
in that Chucky without the scars is scarier the Chucky with? The first 3 movies are awesome in my book. Afterwards it was a joke. But man that first movie i saw when i was a wee lad and when that little doll started calling the babysitter a bitch cunt or whatever i knew i was into GOLD.

Or maybe I'm retarded. When I read the headline, I thought it said something about David Keochner(sic) starring in a Problem Child remake.
thinboyslim by Marxeffect	Aug 19th, 2008 10:46:15 AM
I hope not because the Child's Play movies should never have been associated with that anyway. Just another case of people with fuck all else to do, deciding to blame everything bad that happens in the world on horror movies or computer games, it makes me fucking sick... I mean get a life!! I remember watching a nightmare on elm street when I was about 8 ish and absolutely loved it! Funny enough though it didn't make me want to go around slashing up teenagers or visiting peoples dreams!
StrokerX by Marxeffect	Aug 19th, 2008 10:55:04 AM
Im with you on that!! Scarred chucky is a bit too cheesy for me. Chucky without scars gives me cold shivers.
I need an opinion by Marxeffect	Aug 19th, 2008 11:01:56 AM
I never saw Bride or Seed, just because they looked a bit too cheesy for me, even though i loved the others. Worth checking out?
So was it a lack of things to talk about... by GravitysRainbow	Aug 19th, 2008 11:06:57 AM
that led them to steer the conversation away from their movie and its remake? Perhaps they were genuinely interested in talking film, but it seems like you had to steer them towards Child's Play or else they would use any opportunity to change the subject. Oh, and-- ricarleite-- I always mixed up Child's Play with Problem Child!

I was scared shittless from Chucky by David Cloverfield	Aug 19th, 2008 11:16:33 AM
My sister showed it to me when I was 6. I remember, I had a favorite doll that was kinda similar to Chucky. I loved the little guy, but was pretty sure it's going to murder me. Good times. Horror movies are good for the kid's imagination. I would make them obligatory.
Marx by Quint	Aug 19th, 2008 11:18:40 AM
Bride and Seed are a lot of fun, but they're comedies. Dark comedies, but comedies. I actually really love both of them, but to me the first and second Child's Play films are the only horror films of the series. I'd say both Bride and Seed are miles better than Child's Play 3.
Thank Richard Matheson by Sithdan	Aug 19th, 2008 11:34:20 AM
Without whom there would be NO Chucky or any Child's Play movies. His short story, "Prey," created the template of the killer doll genre.
Really enjoyed interview :) by giger167	Aug 19th, 2008 11:42:59 AM
That was very entertaining, was like eaves dropping on some movie buffs having a conversation lol, very entertaining indeed. Truthfully though very little of worth is coming from hollywood in the horror genre lately, I'm having to look further afield for my horror kicks to France and Spain, make sure you all check out a fantastic film from Spain called .REC which has just been released on dvd in uk, and is a balls-out fucked-up little movie that is the best thing I have seen for years, check it out :)
Well that's it for remakes by Dapper Swindler	Aug 19th, 2008 11:43:27 AM
Whenever I try to think of a horror movie that hasn't been remade, the only thing that springs to mind is Child's play. So that's it. No more remakes because there's nothing left to be remade.
Not so much a child of the 80s by oisin5199	Aug 19th, 2008 11:47:57 AM
as a tween and teenager of the 80s, but I could care less about Child's Play. Cheesy shit that's desperately crying NOT to be remade. I thought that the Twilight Zone episode with Telly Savalas (Living Doll), where the doll looks normal and 'causes' things to happen was 100x more creepy and scary than the stupid looking 'evil' doll. Give it a rest with horror remakes!!!!!
I have less of a problem with remakes when the original maker do by Mr Spork	Aug 19th, 2008 12:06:41 PM
But a lot of remakes seem like a matter of drawing a title out of a hat and saying, "Here, let's remake this".

THINK OF NEW IDEAS by spectrebeeyatch	Aug 19th, 2008 12:11:12 PM
Coke head Hollywood ass holes man. They can't think up or buy new horror ideas so they just keep remaking old classics. Guess what ass holes the Hitcher bombed and hopefully all these shitty "reboots" will too. Seriously call me up I could write you a new horror script in a week.

Will the doll look the same? by Sithdan	Aug 19th, 2008 12:23:09 PM
I wonder if the doll will maintain its "Good Guy" appearance, or will they go for a different route?
I ended up seeing Child's Play in my late teens.. by mefrog	Aug 19th, 2008 12:38:49 PM
...so I kinda thought it was a piece of shit. However, as a child who got the crap scared out of me by dolls, I kind of understand the nostalgia it holds for some people. I'm actually down for this reboot, assuming everyone from the original stays on board. I've seen 1, 2, and Seed of Chucky (absolutley hated that) and would like more of a horror element to be thrown back in.
Child's Play 2 in the best Chucky movie by Nasty In The Pasty	Aug 19th, 2008 01:24:41 PM
Slicker direction, better animatronic effects, a KILLER Graeme Revell score (orchestrated by the late Shirley Walker, no less), and humor thst wasn't detrimental to the genuine suspense. Every Chucky movie from part three on has upped the jokiness of the series until the hideously unfunny Seed Of Chucky.
IS the best Chucky movie by Nasty In The Pasty	Aug 19th, 2008 01:25:12 PM
Don't FUCK with the CHUCK!
I first thought Seed was awful but now I love it! by performingmonkey	Aug 19th, 2008 01:32:00 PM
OK it's not as good as Bride or CP 1 and 2 but it's still enjoyable and Billy Boyd as Glenn is hilarious. I'm glad they're going back to horror though. Some moments in Seed proved they can still make the hairs stand on end with a killer doll, the cool Chucky pov shots.
Child's Play is obviously the best Chucky movie by TheMcflyFarm	Aug 19th, 2008 01:38:24 PM
But the funniest scene in a Chucky movie is in 3 when he kills the barber. "PRESTO, YA DEAD!"...."It's definitely you! Hehehehehe!!!"
you get a real interview with David Kirshner by ArcadianDS	Aug 19th, 2008 01:39:49 PM

Arcadian by Quint	Aug 19th, 2008 01:47:02 PM
I think you mean Don Kirshner... unless you were being sarcastic, of course.
I actually thought 3 was better than 2 by Sithdan	Aug 19th, 2008 01:54:34 PM
I enjoyed Child's Play 3 more than I did for 2. I've never seen Seed, but Bride of Chucky is unwatchable in my opinion. It just takes itself way too unseriously. I prefer the "horror" Chucky than the campy one (the same goes for Freddy in the Nightmare on Elm Street movies).
The first CP by PacmanFever	Aug 19th, 2008 01:56:34 PM
Isn't that scary or subtle ("shit, I'm dying! I've gotta find a new body") but it's still one of the best horror films of the 80s; witty and very effective storytelling. The 2nd wasn't up to the same standard, although the last 20 minutes in the doll factory was GREAT! I thought I was in for a treat with the third film because the first couple of scenes were brilliant, but once it hits the training camp it just coasts to the end. Still, Andy Robinson is great in that movie. Bride just reduced the franchise to a generic horror movie, and like all horrors of that era was self-referential. Seed was mildly funny, I guess, but a little of that kind of humour goes a long way for me. And that kid depressed me. I'm not a big fan of remakes, but if they can recapture the tone of the first, I'm in.
These guys seem like real people... by brokentusk	Aug 19th, 2008 01:59:56 PM
Great to read an interview with producers and directors where they seem like genuine human beings living in the same universe as you and me. I have no problem with these guys remaking the first film if they are in control of it, Brad Dourif's back, and they're keeping it straight horror. Nice job Eri- er, Quint?
CHUCKY was a Cartoon=Not Scary. Ever. by uberman	Aug 19th, 2008 02:26:19 PM
I saw the original in the theater as I was a big horror fan. Was I entertained? Nope. Scared. Not once. Did it seem stupid? Yep. Chucky looks like a big plastic doll but not in a creepy old doll way, but in a lame, cheesy way. The spider doll in TOY STORY was 10x creepier than anything in any Chucky movie. The Night Gallery episode 'The Doll' was 1,000x creepier than Chucky could ever hope to be. Chucky was just never scary to anyone over the age of 3.

How was Lost Boys 2 Without Haim? by www.valiens.com	Aug 19th, 2008 02:44:09 PM
Really? That's fascinating.
Haim was in Lost Boys 2 by Sith Witch	Aug 19th, 2008 03:24:41 PM
Plus in two good deleted scenes. And starring in the third with Feldman.
Haim in Lost Boys 2 ... by Bouncy X	Aug 19th, 2008 03:38:02 PM
depends on your definition of "IN"...i mean he shows up in an end credit sequence that shows up about 20seconds or so into them. some people stop their movies once the credits roll so aside from the deleted scenes, i'm sure some people dont even realize he was sorta tucked in there.
Yay no CGI! by DaJesus	Aug 19th, 2008 03:54:03 PM
When I first read the title I thought "oh no, that means CGI Chucky!" but I'm glad to hear that they seem to think that would suck as much as we do. I would rather see the worst puppet in the world than some stupid CGI thing.
I watched Childs Play in a Theater in S. Central LA. by conspiracy	Aug 19th, 2008 04:01:12 PM
Movie sucked...but the audience was fuckin hilarious. The minute the lights went down the show began..people running around in the dark scaring each other...people screaming and talking at the screen...candy and popcorn falling from the sky like rain...people chasing each other around...One Girl screaming.."RUN LITTLE WHITE BOY! Fucker RUUUUUUUUN!!!!" at the screen whilst Chucky chased the kid....better than a comedy show and it was only $3.00 matinee
Hi I'm Chucky Wanna Play??? by Broseph	Aug 19th, 2008 04:03:01 PM
I couldn't agree with you ore quint as a child of the 80's child's play was fucking scary.especialy due to the popularity of my buddy
What's all this Chucky wasn't scary nonsense? by TheMcflyFarm	Aug 19th, 2008 04:05:24 PM
Did Chucky scare me? No. But neither did Freddy, Jason, Michael Myers, Critters, Pennywise, etc. I grew up watching horror movies. Not because they were scary, but because they were entertaining, and Chucky ranks up there as one of the most entertaining serial killers in Horror history.
I was really young when it came out so my parents didn't let me by iamnicksaicnsn	Aug 19th, 2008 04:23:20 PM
and I used to think that scared me more than actually watching it would (tons of nightmares, scarred me for life). I remember watching it being on when I was 10, the first night at the Disneyland hotel, and I could only watch part of it, because the memories came back and freaked me out again. I really think it was the atmosphere, just the way they put it together. I really hope they can keep that.
Why Don't They Give ANY Credit... by PeterParkerRG	Aug 19th, 2008 04:24:19 PM
... where credit is due, which is with the director of the movie, Tom Holland! I know for a fact, Mancini's original draft of the script, the killer doll "buddy" was the child's id, it came alive whenever the kid was asleep to kill the people the child would be upset with. (Such as the babysitter) Tom Holland created the character of Charles Lee Ray, the criminal who uses voodoo to come back as "Chucky" ("My Buddy" would've sued otherwise). (By the way, Kevin Yagher created "Chucky" and his design.) It's fairly obvious if you look at how different all the sequels are as to who was behind the success of the first film. It's not right that they pretend the director never existed. Seriously. Now they're going to remake his film.
Well, not for life... I think I saw it a couple years ago... by iamnicksaicnsn	Aug 19th, 2008 04:26:51 PM
And have seen 3, but none of the "dark comedies." Yeah, 1 is still scary, but not nightmare inducing, and 3 wasn't really too scary, but it did have the Jimmy replacement from Lois and Clark, so that was kinda cool. Get him back! Where's that guy??

All right, I have pretty much defended remakes in principle, while I've read countless postings where people whine "When will the remakes stop!!!" I am just about officially ready to declare my allegiance with the whiners. Just in the last week I'm hearing about Candyman, Poltergeist, now Child's Play, plus the Freddy and Jason remakes that are already shooting, the Halloween remake from last year, the TCM movies, the Hills Have Eyes movies. I think it's cool that it's the original guy coming back to Child's Play and all, but man this IS starting to get depressing.

Brad Dourif is the man by myspoonistoobig	Aug 19th, 2008 11:24:56 PM
He was the only good part of that movie Urban Legend. I am okay with the remake concept, I have to agree that if they want to make a scary Chucky film they can't take off from Seed of Chucky as a starting point. As for my favorite Chucky movie, it's probably 2. I thought the technology was a little too weak in Child's Play 1, and Child's Play 3 blows. I didn't like Bride very much (too proud of its own tongue-in-cheekness) but Seed was okay. Worth watching on TV anyway.
don't fuck with the chuck by PaulKersey	Aug 20th, 2008 12:55:59 AM
Bride of Chucky was a nice film, but wasn't scary and didn't came near the first or second one. Let's not talk about Seed, one of those movies thats even worse then Jaws The Revenge.
Seed Of Chucky was a Franchise Killer by deanbarry	Aug 20th, 2008 02:29:34 AM
Absolutely hated it. 1 through 3 were great and I really enjoyed Bride as a dark comedy, as it bought something different to the series. but Seed...oh my god. From the opening scene of sperm (poorly cgi'd sperm) to the introduction of Chucky's kid...i thought horror. But not in a good way!
Awesome stuff by scottishnutjob	Aug 20th, 2008 05:19:02 AM

You might as well...Bride is ok if simply for some of the kills and the back n forth between Tiff & Chucky. But Seed was horrible...the whole concept between their he/she child was just bad. Even the design of the new doll was bad. And Chucky's all scarred up the whole time in both movies. Overkill in my opinion. A murderous doll is freaking scary...dont need to add frankenstein scars to tell me he's scary. The best parts where when Chucky was just sitting there looking like a nice doll...then he moves his eyes and snarls and screams and attacks AAHHHHH EFFING DOLL IS BITING ME WTF!!!!!!!!!! I'm calling for a NO SCARS RULE from now on!!!!!!!!!!

Fuck Remakes by KillDozer	Aug 20th, 2008 12:50:24 PM

the first remake premis that sounds...ok..but... by JediRob	Aug 20th, 2008 02:03:32 PM
There's something quintessentially 80's about the Child's Play movies, just as there is a 90's sensibility to the Chucky movie's. They are basically different series. Bride of Chucky was exactly where the series/character needed to go at that time and it worked brilliantly. Can a killer doll concept evolve for a 3rd time in an original way for a modern audience? Evolve by going back to the beginning to boot? I'll give these guys the benefit of the doubt.
Child's Play is the only 80s movie by Bouncy X	Aug 20th, 2008 02:06:41 PM
part 2 through 4 came in the 90s and 5 came in the 00s.

Yes thank you Bouncy I am aware of the literal release's by JediRob	Aug 20th, 2008 02:47:22 PM
I wasn't referring to that, as I said it was their sensibilities. They were all products of their eras and I am curious as to how a killer doll movie would function these days.

If your going to make a remake by T-Dog	Aug 20th, 2008 09:38:22 PM
It's best that the original filmmakers are involved. They're the ones who created it, they should be the ones to do it over again. People who weren't involved the the originals, remaking classic films are just looking for an easy way to make a buck. So to that I say, bring on the Child's Play reboot, but to those morons remaking A Nightmare on Elm Street, fuck off! At least bring back Robert Englund, he is Freddy and no one else should be allowed to play him.

True Story... by Dawhiteguy	Aug 21st, 2008 01:48:58 AM
I was driving the other day and glanced over at a homeless fella riding a bicycle, and tied to his back was a good guy doll, or maybe it was a chucky doll. I felt pretty pathetic staring this bum guy down. I was just really curious about why he had that damn doll on his back. He must of watched the movie at a young age too, you know? It changed him so much that he really thought Charles Lee Ray was transformed into one of the dolls, and that it was his immoral objective in life to help Chucky find a little boy to torture and bodynap. Oh shit, I just remembered Chucky had a strong influence in the haitian community, and that this bum was black. Furthermore, I would like to conclude that Puppet Master is way cooler than Child's Play
Thanks StrokerX by Marxeffect	Aug 21st, 2008 04:51:25 AM
Much appreciated!

I read the original "Child's Play" script... by Ellipsian	Aug 21st, 2008 12:36:05 PM
...back in the day (or at least the person who gave it to me claimed it was). It's now been 20 years, but I still remember the tone being even darker and more fucked up it was than the movie. I wish I could remember whether the babysitter was electrocuted in the tub so I could confirm as to whether it was really the script, but it's been too long...no dice. Anyway, the one death I DO remember, likely since it terrified me so much, was Chucky whacking some guy to the floor--who I'm thinking was the boyfriend of the kid's mom--by knocking him in the head with a hammer. While the boyfriend's dazed and facedown, Chuck nails the guy's hands to the floor; he then covers the bf's head with a plastic bag, jumps atop his back, and gleefully rides him, struggling and suffocating, like a bucking bronco. Creeped me out for days...but damn, it was cool. (This death is somewhat similar to a suffocation in the second movie; I'm guessing that this is a case of Mancini making use of previous ideas.)

freaked me out. And the Poltergeist doll/clown. And the chinese ventriloquist's doll in Doctor Who. And the 'Magic' one. Hell, pretty much any doll. The W.C. Fields doll in Miller's Twighlight Zone ep. Creepy dolls are easy points.
Wormtounge needs more screen time by deanbarry	Aug 22nd, 2008 03:33:33 AM
It'd be cool to see more of the Brad before become a Dolly. If a remake is necessary (it's Hollywood does, yeah?) then mix it up a little. Kind of like the backstory of Michael in Rob Zombies Halloween, but, with out all the life sucked out of it. I'm angry now that I thought of that fucking movie. At least Carpenter's Halloween is coming to BluRay. Ah yes. It will be pretty :)

Carpenter's Halloween came out ages ago on BD. Where've you been? It's almost 50% off at Amazon - $15.95 (I was just looking at the sales). Showing the backstory of "the shape" in more detail in the remake was moronic and goes completely against the point of the character. I'm not even a hardcore Halloween nut and it was obvious to me. I don't get why you would demystify a mysterious character...
