History YMMV / ChildsPlay

* MoralEventHorizon: Mrs. Kettlewell, the [[SadistTeacher sadist teacher]], crosses it when she refused to let Andy leave the class after being wrongly accused of writing ''FUCK YOU BITCH'' on his assignment, and locked him in the classroom. She even stated earlier that she [[KickTheDog punishes new students more severely.]]

* SugarWiki/FunnyMoments: When Karen threatens to throw Chucky into the fireplace, causing him to spring to life.
-->"I'LL TEACH YOU TO FUCK WITH ME!"

* NightmareFuel:
** Burned. Chucky.
** The deleted scene in the second film that shows Chucky's head being rebuilt.
** The third movie, when Chucky's on the computer in a dimly lit office. His reflection is really ugly at that moment, even for Chucky!
** Chucky's death sequence in the second movie. He deserved it, but DAMN.
** While this also qualifies as a FunnyBackgroundEvent in the second movie, there is a picture of Mr. Simpson (Andy's foster dad.) in the background where he is smiling Evilly while brandishing a large knife.
** Meta example: The entire concept of the film to any child who had dolls.

** WoobieDestroyerofWorlds: [[spoiler:Glen briefly fell into this when his mother, Tiffany, was murdered by his own father, Chucky.]].

** Also his lover, Jennifer Tilly, until ''Seed of Chucky''.

** WoobieDestroyerofWorlds: [[spoiler:Glen as Glenda]].

** Glen/Glenda is another example, when he finds out that his parents are [[SerialKiller serial killers]].

** Also his lover, Jennifer Tilly.

* BadassBoast: Chucky delivers the best one in Seed of Chucky.
--> '''Chucky:''' If this is what it takes to be human, then I'd rather take my chances as a supernaturally-possessed doll! It's much less complicated! Think about it! What's so great about being human? You get sick! You get old! As a doll, I'm infamous! I am Chucky! The killer doll!

* BadassBookworm: Suprisingly Chucky, his knowledge of Voodoo aside, he knew the exact chapter of Voodoo for Dummies Tiffany needed to gain knowledge about the amulet needed to transfer there souls out.

** While this also qualifies as a FunnyBackgroundEvent in the second movie, there is a picture of Mr. Simpson (Andy's foster dad.) in the background where he is smiling Evilly while brandishing a large knife.

* DidNotDoTheResearch: as pointed out by TheNostalgiaCritic, the scene where Chucky replases paint munitions with real-working ammo in ''Child's Play 3'' would be impossible in real life: paint rifle are specifically modified to shoot paint, and can't be converted back to shooting real munitions.

* MagnificentBastard: Chucky sure had no problem playing everyone like a fiddle in Child's Play 3. Up to, and including, him arranging for the Red Team to shoot members of the Blue Team to death, and attempting to blow them all up in the ensuing chaos. Would have gotten away with it had it not been for a HeroicSacrifice by one of the supporting characters.

* VillainDecay: Chucky.

** While this also qualifies as a FunnyBackgroundEvent in the second movie, there is a picture of Mr. Simpson (Andy's foster dad.) in the background where he is smiling Evilly while brandishing a large knife. NostalgiaCritic thought he was gonna be the killer in the second movie.

** Chucky's death in the second movie. He deserved it, but DAMN.

** The [[DeletedScene extended]] [[SequelHook ending]] of the second film takes it UpToEleven. We see Chucky's head and head alone reconstructed, no eyes, empty, undetailed mouth. It sits there for a moment, and then smiles to remind us that Chucky [[WhyWontYouDie won't stay dead]]. There's a reason it's also under HighOctaneNightmareFuel above.

* CompleteMonster: Chucky, who else?!
** Possibly his most terrifying moment is when he replaces the blanks in a rifle with REAL WORKING AMMO.
* FunnyMoments: When Karen threatens to throw Chucky into the fireplace, causing him to spring to life.

* {{Squick}}
* SmugSnake: Chucky.
* UncannyValley: The Chucky doll itself is just as unsettling when it's not moving around or acting sentient. But compared to Tiffany, Chucky looks normal.

* VillainDecay: Chucky.
* TheWoobie: Andy. Not only does he lose his mother and have a killer doll trying to steal his body for 3 (well okay, 2.5 movies), no one believes him and [[HeroWithBadPublicity some even imply that ''he'' is the killer.]]
* WTHCastingAgency: Parodied in ''Seed''. '''Redman''' (the rap star) is directing a Bible epic, and Jennifer Tilly is lobbying for the part of the Virgin Mary.
-->'''Jennifer''': But the character is pregnant!
-->'''Redman''': Yeah, I know, but I have a very specific vision of Mary. And what can I say? She gots to be hot.

* FunnyMoments: Several of the kids' definitions, but one in particular was when none of the kids knew who BillCullen was!
* TheyChangedItNowItSucks: The 1982 pilots contain a format that many feel is ''better'' than that used on the series.

* TheWoobie: Andy. Not only does he have a killer doll trying to steal his body for 3 (well okay, 2.5 movies), no one believes him and [[HeroWithBadPublicity some even imply that ''he'' is the killer.]]

* HeyItsThatGuy: Yep, it's Bill Cullen. Anne Marie Johnson (''In Living Color'') appeared as a contestant, while Jeff Cohen (''The Goonies'') and Lori Beth Dinberg (''All That'') gave definitions.
* HeyItsThatVoice: Gene Wood announced a great many Goodson-Todman games prior to this point.
