Well, I guess this is one way of looking at it: http://www.theparisreview.org/blog/2015 ... re-i-wake/

"It’s like an unearthly Carol Kane screaming in a wind tunnel, trapped in the body of a lifeless totem."

Heh.

You shouldn't watch Chucky movies before bedtime....

Ever wonder what a whole bunch of 'em would sound like together? No? Me neither. But that's okay because we have auditory documentation from the time President McKinley gave a speech to an audience of Edison dolls.
