Now, the movies may be called Child’s Play, but the villain is so popular, we all just really know the movies as “Chucky.” That said, it’s easy to assume that Syfy’s Chucky is about the doll and his murders.

Child’s Play, J(a remake/reboot of the franchise)įor details about where you can stream these movies, check HERE.A horror movie franchise that has one too many installments, eight, to be exact. What is the Chucky TV series about? Can you stream it online? Here’s everything you need to know about everyone’s favorite evil doll.Ĭhucky is the center character and villain in the Child’s Play horror slasher movies. Of course, Mancini continues to develop his own Child's Play TV series with original Chucky voice actor Brad Dourif on board, so he has reason to be competitive.Just in time for spooky season, Syfy and the USA Network, are giving horror fans a dark comedy slasher whose villain we are all (more or less) familiar with, Chucky.

It remains to be seen whether fans will embrace the new take on Chucky, but it's perhaps worth noting that original Child's Play creator Don Mancini has already indicated that he's not a fan. Chucky will also get a new origin story that doesn't involve a serial killer taking possession of the doll, but instead sees a Chinese factory worker re-programming the high-tech toy to have no limitations. As for Chucky himself, it's already been revealed that the new doll will be updated for our more technologically sophisticated times, and indeed a close look at the box in the above poster reveals nods to this fact as well. The new movie's brief official synopsis reads, ' Child’s Play follows a mother who gives her son a toy doll for his birthday, unaware of its more sinister nature.' That is basically the exact synopsis of the original Child's Play, so fans can look forward to a reboot that sticks pretty close to the source material at least in terms of story.
