Visible crew/equipment: When Andy goes upstairs after being introduced into the Simpson's home, he walks down the hallway and then backtracks to Kyle's bedroom door and opens it. As the shot pans closer in as he opens the door, the camera and its operator are shadowed on the door. (00:12:05)

Continuity mistake: When Kyle manages to stop the truck, we see Andy running away with Chucky on his shoulders. It cuts to Kyle and the driver for a second before Kyle runs after Andy.

Continuity mistake: The position of the metal poker changes from when we see it as the camera pans around the basement, to when Chucky picks it up. (00:42:25 - 00:45:10)

Other mistake: At the beginning, we see the workers attaching Chuck's head to his body. But there's no place for the wires that would operate the dolls, seeing as how the workers believe he's just a normal doll.

Continuity mistake: When Chucky jumps on Kyle's back in the bedroom, she struggles to get him off. In an attempt, she bashes up against the wall, and this knocks a picture frame askew. In the next shot the frame is straight. (00:52:30)

Hamster

Continuity mistake: When Miss Kettlewell is stabbed with the bike pump by Chucky, she drops her keys to the floor. When Chucky exits the cloakroom with the ruler, the whole floor is visible, but the keys have vanished. (00:36:50)

Hamster

Plot hole: In the factory we see the machine that adds the hair to the Dolls it "punches" the doll at standing level. Andy hits the reverse button and they watch a doll go backwards. A few moments later Chucky appears on a cart and now the machine "punches" Chucky to the cart. 2 Errors -1 How did Andy and Kyle not see Chucky on the cart right in front of them. 2. What made the machine go low enough to stick Chucky to the cart.

Suggested correction: 1. Andy and Kyle were looking away, hence they didn't see Chucky. But then, Kyle turns and sees him. 2. We are to presume that the punch machine goes down until it is stopped by the doll it's meant to be "punching" into. So, it just descended until it reached Chucky and the platform he's on. (Additionally, the machine also seems to be malfunctioning given it goes into a sort of overdrive.)

Revealing mistake: When Mattson pulls the card through the card reader in order to open the door, there is no lock mechanism on the door at all when we see him opening the door and entering the room. (00:04:45)

However, when she runs to her car so that she can chase the Chicago Sun-Times truck, in the overhead shot of the front of the car as she reverses, the car is intact. (00:56:25 - 01:00:25)

Hamster

Continuity mistake: When Kyle and Andy are climbing up the metal roller conveyer, in a wide shot when Kyle calls "Come on" to Andy, you can see Kyle is right at the top of the conveyer, but when the shot changes, Kyle isn't quite at the top yet. (01:06:30)

Chucky: You little shit. Do you realise what you've done? It's too late. I've spent to much time in this body. I'm fucking trapped in here!

More quotes from Child's Play 2

Trivia: In a 2018 interview, series producer David Kirshner revealed that of all people, Steven Spielberg was instrumental in helping get "Child's Play 2" and the later sequels made. MGM, the studio that made the original, decided not to produce a sequel when a new company president took over who disliked horror movies. Several studios started a bidding war for the "Child's Play" property, but Spielberg called Kirshner and encouraged him to go to Universal. Kirshner contacted Universal, and mentioned that Spielberg suggested them. The executives immediately made Kirshner an offer to make not only "Child's Play 2" but all future films in the series, and even accepted most of Kirshner's demands about the franchise, allowing he and co-creator Don Mancini to be in control of the series - something that likely would not have happened had another studio bought the rights in a bidding war.
