I was able to separate it from the franchise and just enjoy it as a solo horror film. It could have just been a movie about a killer doll. There were enough changes where it didn’t need to be a Child’s Play movie. It didn’t dismiss what had happened in the Don Mancini films, but it did kind of exist in an alternate universe.

Either you’re supporting the original Child’s Play films or the reboot, which is weird. It kind of made you feel like you have to take a side. I saw some comments where people were refusing to see or acknowledge the movie. And I think that’s why people were upset by the 2019 reboot, more so than something like the Texas Chainsaw reboot. ![]() I respect all he’s done and appreciate it when there’s one overarching vision for a franchise. I know some people weren’t thrilled that they were doing this remake without Don Mancini since he’s been with the franchise from the beginning, creating the character and directing some of the movies.

I saw the 2019 Child’s Play movie and wanted to talk about how it fits in with the franchise, if, in my humble opinion, it should continue, and let you know where I’d place the film in my Chucky ranking. Hey Jack, I’m back! And with me, another speed art.
