In the 2019 reboot of Child's Play, Chucky (voiced by Mark Hamill) is presented as a high-tech artificially-intelligent Buddi doll created by the Kaslan Corporation.
The man, the myth, the soul of an infamous (fictional) serial killer trapped in a doll. Also known as the Lakeshore Strangler, we first meet Chucky in his original human form as he's running from the cops in Chicago.
Charles Lee Ray was a character known as the Lakeshore Strangler who murdered 22 people before his death in the beginning of Child's Play. He is Chucky's original human form before he transferred his soul into a doll.
Fascinatingly, Chucky also is a homage to a real-life story concerning an equally creepy doll from 1906. The doll is named Robert, and he had been gifted to a young boy from Key West, Florida, by the name of Robert Eugene Otto. Otto had a profound love for Robert and was said to have kept him right up to his death.
In Chucky, flashbacks (which are expanded upon to include a birthday party) put Charles Lee Ray around 8 years old in 1965. As such, the character was born in 1957 and is subsequently 31 at the time of his original human death.
Charles performs a Voodoo spell using an amulet, the Heart of Damballa, that transfers his consciousness out of his human body and into the doll's "body." With that, Charles Lee Ray dies and lives again as Chucky, the killer doll ... and he digs it!
He only became evil due to his sadistic desire to hurt and kill others, shown when his father was killed by the Hackensack killer, and decided to become just like him because he was inspired by the killers actions.
Annabelle is an allegedly-haunted Raggedy Ann doll, housed in the now closed occult museum of the paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren. Annabelle was moved there after supposed hauntings in 1970. A character based on the doll is one of the antagonists that appear in The Conjuring Universe.
At the end of the film, Andy, his mother Karen, and two police detectives, Mike Norris and Jackie Santos, try to fight off Chucky. After he's lit on fire and loses both an arm and a leg, Karen shoots him repeatedly, and he is even beheaded. It isn't until Norris shoots Chucky in the heart that he finally dies.
Chucky is 29 inches (. 74 m) tall in Child's Play (1988). Chucky is the main villain of the Child's Play movie franchise. Chucky is a “Good Guys” doll who is possessed by the soul of Charles Lee Ray, a criminal that was fatally shot by the cops after committing a robbery.
Chucky is portrayed as a vicious serial killer who, as he bleeds out from a gunshot wound, transfers his soul into a "Good Guy" doll and continuously tries to transfer it to a human body. The character has become one of the most recognizable horror icons and has been referenced numerous times in popular culture.
The only way to get a real body again is to transfer his soul to the first person he revealed his true identity to. So, Chucky spends two movies trying to transfer his soul into young Andy Barclay (Alex Vincent) but fails. First Andy burns and dismembers him (with help; he's six after all).
Long before Chucky decided he loved ruining lives as an unassuming doll, he sought to return to a human body. In service of that quest, he aimed to retrieve an amulet that was buried with his human corpse. As the journey began, Chucky revealed his grave was in Hackensack, New Jersey.
“Yes, in a way [he was real]. I mean, some people have asked if he just playing them all along. And that was not my intention. I feel like if you watch closely, you can see that there are moments where Chucky has no reason to maintain an imposter as Good Chucky with Dr.
Chucky and Tiffany make plans to transfer their souls into Redman and Jennifer. Tiffany knocks them out and uses a turkey baster to inseminate Jennifer with Chucky's semen, intending to use her baby as a host for Glen's soul.
As a human, Tiffany has platinum blonde hair, a gothic fashion style, and a chest tattoo of a bleeding heart with 'Chucky' written above it. After becoming a doll, Tiffany gives herself a makeover so as to better resemble her human self. Her physical appearance as a human and as a doll change throughout the franchise.
The Child's Play franchise is known for its brutal, high kill counts. Racking up the kills together from all seven movies, Chucky has killed a total of 67 people.
Despite inside the body of a doll, Chucky can feel pain and can bleed when injured, and has a large scar with stitches on his face. He used many weapons including guns, but mostly an axe or a knife to kill people who buy or sees him killing someone.
Chucky dubs his "son" Glen, and Tiffany dubs her daughter "Glenda." It becomes clear that Glen and Glenda are either two separate personalities or two distinct souls somehow inhabiting the same body.
It's been noted several times that Annabelle isn't an "evil doll", she's just a vessel for evil spirits. But this is the case for quite a few dolls featured in horror movies, and they move around and wreak havoc. Annabelle, however, is never technically seen moving all on her own.
Tony Spera, the real-life Occult Museum curator and son-in-law of renowned demonologists Ed and Lorraine Warren opens the case that houses the Annabelle doll a the Museum at the Center for Paranormal Research in Monroe, Conn.
Annabelle also looks a bit different in the movies, as in real life, she is a Raggedy Ann doll, but in the movies, she is a porcelain doll who looks like she has a ton of makeup painted on her face.
The character plays on the classic fear of creepy, humanoid dolls that enter the uncanny valley. What makes him so scary is his ability to blend into many environments seamlessly, the fact that most people wouldn't believe that a doll could be alive, and his persistence.
"Hi, I'm Chucky, your friend till the end", was one of the first things Chucky was heard saying to Andy in the original Child's Play movie. This catchphrase was a recurring one throughout the entire series of films, so of course, it became one of the most well-known Child's Play quotes.
Bride of Chucky's resurrection of the titular character is done by the hands of Tiffany Valentine (Jennifer Tilly) who reassembles the doll and repeats the voodoo spell that first put Charles Lee Ray's soul inside. This resurrection is one of the most important in the franchise.
