It's a genuine shame that despite maintaining a dedicated cult following, the "Child's Play" franchise remains a relatively low-key slasher franchise that doesn't command nearly the same respect as its peers. With its witty writing, strong ongoing story and incredibly likeable recurring characters, it's one of the strongest horror series out there. And this original film starts it out on a solid if not slightly uneven note. 1988's "Child's Play" benefits from a wonderfully eerie sense of dread and intrigue, wickedly entertaining kills and a top-notch cast. And it's also the film to introduce the world to Chucky the killer doll, which earns it extra brownie points.
As a slasher movie, this is definitely a great effort, and it easily earns a very good 4 out of 5.

Trivia: In all, nine menacing Chucky figures were constructed for the film: a simple "toy" doll; a doll that could stand upright; a doll that could walk; two hand-held puppets for quick, specific movements (such as sitting, biting or flailing about); and expendable "stunt dolls" that could be tossed round the set or otherwise subjected to rough treatment.
