When you hear that Scream Factory has picked up a title for a Collector's Edition, you know you're in store for hours of bonus content that will crack open your mind and stuff it full of knowledge. For this reason, I was excited to see that they were putting out CHILD'S PLAY, which will be available on October 18th.
CHILD'S PLAY is one of my favorite slasher franchises, and I thought I knew everything there was to know about it. Scream Factory proved me wrong in this pre-released bonus feature, a special interview with Chucky stunt double Ed Gale. In the video, he details exactly how they brought the killer doll to life, and every single person who worked toward his success. It's an incredibly enlightening look at the film's effects and I urge you all to check it out below!

The "chills come thick and fast" (Los Angeles Times) in this riveting, jolt-a-minute thriller about an innocent-looking doll inhabited by the soul of a serial killer who refused to die. From the director of Fright Night, Child's Play comes complete with "excellent special effects" (Leonard Maltin) and a slew of special features that make this Blu-ray your "friend to the end!"
In this "clever, playful thriller" (The New York Times), only six-year-old Andy realizes that Chucky is responsible for a spate of gruesome murders, including that of his unsuspecting babysitter. But the real terror takes hold when the deranged doll becomes determined to transfer his evil spirit to a living human being… Andy!
