Child's Play 2 was released on November 9, 1990, exactly two years after the first film was released, and grossed over $35 million on a budget of $13 million. It was followed by a sequel, Child's Play 3 , 9 months later.

Plot

Two years after the death of Chucky, [lower-alpha 1] the Play Pals Corporation, manufacture of the Good Guy doll line, is attempting to recover from the negative publicity surrounding the event. To reassure its stockholders that there was nothing actually wrong with the doll, they acquire Chucky's remains and reassemble him. During the process, a power surge fatally electrocutes one of the assembly line workers and Chucky is reanimated. Mr. Sullivan, the CEO of the company, orders his assistant Mattson to dispose of the doll.

Meanwhile, Andy Barclay, now eight years old, has been in foster care ever since his mother was institutionalized for backing up his claims that his doll was alive. Andy is brought in by foster parents Phil and Joanne Simpson, though Phil is apprehensive about Andy's needs. Andy later meets Kyle, a cynical, street-smart teenage girl the Simpsons are also fostering. Chucky discovers Andy's whereabouts by using Mattson's car phone to call Grace Poole, the manager of Andy's foster center, before suffocating Mattson with a plastic bag.

Chucky infiltrates the Simpson's home and takes the place of another Good Guy doll, "Tommy," which he buries in the backyard. Andy begins to bond with Kyle after the two are punished for an heirloom Chucky destroyed. That night Chucky reveals himself to Andy, but Kyle enters the room before he can complete the voodoo chant to possess him. Kyle doesn't believe Andy's claim that Chucky is alive. Phil and Joanne barge into the room and blame Kyle for the chaos; Phil throws Chucky into the basement in frustration. Chucky realizes that his body is becoming human again after suffering a nosebleed.

The next day, Chucky secretly follows Andy to school and defaces his homework, resulting in Andy being assigned detention. Chucky kills Andy's teacher Miss Kettlewell by stabbing her with an air pump and then beating her with a yardstick, but Andy manages to escape. Andy tries to warn his foster parents about Chucky, but Phil refuses to believe him and considers returning him to the foster center.

That night, Andy sneaks into the basement to confront Chucky, but the doll overpowers him. When Phil arrives to investigate, Chucky trips him, causing him to fall from the stairs and break his neck. Joanne blames Andy for Phil's death and sends him back to the foster center. Kyle discovers "Tommy" buried outside and realizes Andy was telling the truth. She rushes to warn Joanne, only to discover that Chucky has already killed her. Chucky ambushes Kyle and forces her to drive him to the foster center.

Chucky stabs Grace to death and captures Andy. Kyle pursues them through the streets and to the nearby Play Pals factory, but is unable to find them before Chucky knocks Andy unconscious and completes the ritual. However, the spell fails as he has spent too much time in his doll body and is now permanently trapped. Enraged, Chucky chases Andy and Kyle through the factory. After Chucky murders a factory technician, Kyle and Andy manage to mutilate his body with assembly-line equipment. Chucky escapes and attacks again, knocking out Kyle. Andy is able to open an emergency release valve, showering Chucky with molten plastic and seemingly killing him.

After saving the unconscious Kyle from being killed on a conveyor belt, the two approach the half-melted Chucky, who suddenly springs back to life. Kyle shoves a high-pressure air hose into his mouth, inflating his head until it explodes, finally killing him. Andy and Kyle exit the factory, unsure of where to go.

Cast

Production

United Artists purchased the script to the original Child's Play partially because UA President Tony Thomopoulis and MGM/UA Communications Chairman Lee Rich believed that it had the potential for multiple sequels. [6] Producer David Kirschner asked Tom Holland to return as director but declined due to his conflicts with producer David Kirschner and UA during the first film. [7] John Lafia, who had been turned down as director because he had no experience, was hired by Kirschner after directing The Blue Iguana . Mancini also agreed to return. [8] Mancini and Lafia decided to set the film at a foster home due to Lafia's experience living in a large family. [9] MGM/UA also commissioned a screenplay from Mark Patrick Carducci in case it was dissatisfied with Mancini's script, but it was not used. [10] Carducci's script would have involved Andy in a mental institution after the murders in the first film. [11]

The sequel was in pre-production and was set to begin filming on October 15, 1989, when UA President Richard Berger told producer David Kirschner that the film was put on hold as the studio was about to be acquired by the Australian group Qintex, whose director Christopher Skase intended to ban the studio from producing horror films. [12]

Paramount Pictures, Warner Bros., Columbia Pictures, 20th Century Fox, The Price Company, Carolco, New Line Cinema, The Walt Disney Company, and Universal Pictures expressed interest in picking up the film rights to the series and sequel. [12] [13] Disney, which was working with Kirschner to develop Hocus Pocus (1993), was especially interested in purchasing the series under its Touchstone Pictures label because it wanted to create a horror-themed attraction at its Disney-MGM Studios theme park. [14] However, Universal won the rights bid after Steven Spielberg and Kathleen Kennedy assisted Universal's Sid Sheinberg in convincing Kirschner to accept a negative pickup deal with the studio. [12] [13] [15]

Originally the film was intended to open with a courtroom scene of a jury sentencing Karen Barclay to a mental institution for insisting that Chucky was alive, and both Catherine Hicks and Chris Sarandon were intended to reprise their roles as Karen and Detective Mike Norris from the first film. [16] Sarandon recalled to People in 2023 that he declined to return when asked because Holland would not be involved. [17] However, their scenes were cut from the scripts because of budgetary constraints, and as a result of their omission the film is much shorter than the other installments in the series. The courtroom scene would be recycled as the ending of Curse of Chucky in 2013. It also would have contained a scene where Chucky's remains were held in a police evidence locker alongside Jason Voorhees and Michael Myers's masks, an idea which came to be reused in Bride of Chucky in 1998. [16]

Jenny Agutter would be cast as Joanne Simpson after Veronica Cartwright was considered. Gerrit Graham would beat Jeffrey Jones, Tim Matheson, and Charles Grodin for the role of Phil Simpson. [18] Shannen Doherty, Kristy Swanson, Holly Marie Combs, and Christine Elise all auditioned for the role of Kyle. Although Elise nearly missed her follow-up audition to film an episode of Baywatch , she got the role. [19]

Principal photography began on November 6, 1989 with a $12 million budget. [20] Since Kirschner was busy after getting hired to run Hanna-Barbera, the production was supervised by Robert Latham Brown. [21] Unlike the first film which was mostly shot on-location in Chicago, most of the second film was shot on Universal Studios Lot in Universal City, California. [20] The Play Pals factory sequence was shot in an abandoned warehouse in Valencia, California. [21] Brad Dourif recorded all of his dialogue as Chucky in advance, which allowed his words to match up with his facial movements better than in the first film. Kevin Yagher returned to do the special effects and puppetry, directing several scenes of the film himself. [16] Ed Gale was rehired to play the body of Chucky, but unlike in the first film very few of his scenes were used. [18] The International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees picketed the shoot to demand that the production company stop using non-union employees, with the crew voting to sign a union contract in January 1990 shortly before filming wrapped. [20] Graeme Revell, whose only scoring experience was the 1989 Australian psychological horror film Dead Calm , was hired to compose the music after lying to the studio that he had composed an orchestral composition before. [16] Kevin Carlson, Van Snowden, and N. Brock Winkless IV [22] were credited as part of the puppeteers of Chucky.

Music

The score of the film was composed by Graeme Revell, and conducted, as well as orchestrated, by Shirley Walker. Unlike the first film that has electronic music, the music for the sequel is completely orchestral.

Novelization

A tie-in novelization to the film was later written by Matthew J. Costello. The author added in some of his own plot scenes exclusive to the novel, such as going deeper into Andy Barclay and Chucky's past. Chucky is characterized to have an absent father and his abusive mother being a dwarf. Chucky got teased a lot because of this and later strangled his mother to death. Also, Chucky was put in special classes when he was younger. During the scene at the factory, Chucky sees a bunch of Good Guy dolls and wishes that he could bring them to life to do his bidding. This was partially used as the plot of the film Cult of Chucky .

Reception

Box office

The film opened at number one in the US with an opening weekend gross of $10,718,520 from 1,996 screens in the US. [3] [23] The film grossed a total of $28,501,605 in the US and an additional $7.3 million internationally for a worldwide gross of $35.8 million. [3]

Critical response

Rotten Tomatoes gives the film an approval rating of 40% based on 15 reviews. [24] Evan Dickson of Bloody Disgusting, in describing how it surpasses the original film, wrote, "Child's Play 2 manages to strip away all artifice and still manage to be an effective slasher." [25]

Variety wrote, "Child's Play 2 is another case of rehashing the few novel elements of an original to the point of utter numbness." [26] Gene Siskel gave the film zero stars out of four, calling it "A vicious, ugly little thriller." [27] On Siskel and Ebert's Worst of 1990 show, Siskel further criticised the film, accusing director John Lafia of "prostituting himself" and rhetorically asking the audience "who was this trash made for and would you want to sit next to them in a theater?"

Kevin Thomas of the Los Angeles Times thought the original was "a terrific one-of-a-kind thriller," but "Not so the sequel. It's an all-out horror film—handsomely produced but morbid and not in the least amusing to watch." [28] Richard Harrington of The Washington Post called it "an inevitable sequel that's not as good as its progenitor, but better than most movies with the numbers 2 through 8 in their titles." [29]

Controversy

It was later revealed that the movie was a favourite of Martin Bryant, who committed the Port Arthur massacre. [30]

Audience's response

Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "A−" on an A+ to F scale. [31] According to the creator, Don Mancini, and the cast of the Child's Play franchise, Child's Play 2 is considered the favorite film of Chucky by fans. [32]

Home media

Child's Play 2 was first released on VHS by MCA/Universal Home Video in North America on April 11, 1991. [33] The film was later released on DVD in 1999 and bundled with the fourth film Bride of Chucky . This released on DVD by Universal Pictures Home Entertainment on October 22, 2002. It was released in multiple collections, such as:

Child's Play 2 was released on 4K Ultra HD by Scream! Factory on August 16, 2022. This release included a new 4K scan from the original camera negative, a new Dolby Atmos track and several interviews recorded in 2022 with creator Don Mancini, actor Alex Vincent, producer David Kirschner, actress Christine Elise, actress Beth Grant, and executive producer Robert Latham Brown. [37]

Sequels

The film was followed by Child's Play 3 in 1991, Bride of Chucky in 1998, Seed of Chucky in 2004, Curse of Chucky in 2013, Cult of Chucky in 2017, and the TV series Chucky in 2021.
