Episode 11: Child's Play (1988)

Hi-De-Ho! This week the team takes on a childhood source of nightmare fuel: Child's Play! Learn about the origins of Chucky, and how Don Mancini turned a script from his junior year of college into one of the most iconic horror franchises in history. The team also dive into the Twilight Zone episode "Living Doll" (The direct inspiration for Child's Play) and explore how this eerie episode established the killer doll conventions we know today. There are also traumatic stories of Anthony's own experience trying to get rid of a creepy doll, Alix working at a shady sex shop and many, many minutes of gushing over Jennifer Tilly (along with Shawn Michaels for some reason).
