Child’s Play 2

Awesome Composer Fact: This was composer Graeme Revell's first big symphonic Hollywood film score. When asked by the producers if had done such a score before, he bluffed and said "yes". In truth, he had never done a full orchestral score (his break-through score, "Dead Calm", was written for a much smaller ensemble).

Film Debut: Adam Wylie's first film role.

50 +5 for Chucky’s restoration -10 for the tooth-scraping sound +5 for Kyle’s practical thinking -10 for the foster dad yelling at Andy for rules he doesn’t know exist +5 for Chucky’s water gun -5 for breaking the statue -5 for handing a kid a cigarette +10 for lecturing him on how gross and bad for you cigarettes are +10 for checking the batteries +5 for Kyle and Andy bonding +5 for Alex Vincent +5 for Beth Grant -10 for the teacher being a total fucking moron -10 for the foster dad +5 for Kyle’s advice +5 for “How’s it hangin’, Phil?” +5 for Kyle finding the Tommy Good Guy doll under the swing +5 for bringing a weapon +5 for Kyle’s quick thinking -10 for sexism +10 for the chant not working +5 for Andy being brave -5 because why wouldn’t he just spit the hose out?
