While the common wisdom is that the original is always better (a point driven home by vastly inferior remakes like A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET, THE HITCHER, and POLTERGEIST), CHILD’S PLAY is a slicker, more creative reboot than most of the ones we’ve seen in the last few years. They were naughty and dangerous (“don’t f**k with the Chuck”), our parents forbid us from watching them, but hey, video stores and sympathetic teen clerks were a thing back then so what could you do? They were scary movies we all used to watch at sleep-overs. When I was growing up, the CHILD’S PLAY films were kinda sacred. REVIEW: It’s always tricky when beloved movies from your childhood get remade. However, the doll, named Chucky (voiced by Mark Hamill) soon proves to be defective in more ways than one. Chucky is said to be a technologically advanced smart toy whose AI is programmed to have no limitations to learning or violence.PLOT: A lonely boy (Gabriel Bateman) is given a high-tech “Buddi” doll for his birthday by his busy single mother ( Aubrey Plaza).

In the remake, Chucky is created by a disgruntled sweat shop worker who disables all his safety parameters. In the original Child's Play, Chucky is created through Voodoo.They, too, had the interchangeable features of the other puppets. Two of the 'Robo-Chucky' puppets were built. The body was filled with servos to control the various body parts and the head was also completely remote controlled. One version of the Chucky puppet, which was referred to as 'Robo-Chucky,' was entirely self-contained.
#BUDDI DOLL HEAD SERIAL#
Unlike the original Child's Play (1988) and it's sequels, Chucky was not possessed by the serial killer Charles Lee Ray (Chucky's human form) who transferred his soul into the doll.In place of the Play Pals company that manufactured the Chucky Good Guy Dolls is Kaslan Industries, which are manufacturers of the various Buddi dolls: ranging from human dolls to animal dolls, and initially unlike Play Pals did not begin primarily as a toy creative company, but rather an advanced electronics industry: developing advanced robotics such as drones, camera wear and modem software.
#BUDDI DOLL HEAD SERIES#
This is most likely a nod to the slasher film series of the same name.
#BUDDI DOLL HEAD MOVIE#
The stand-ins for "Good Guy" dolls in this movie are the "Buddi" dolls.The interchangeable features also paid off when the puppets would be configured for different continuities and need to be switched out quickly. They would also construct a few replacement heads, so that if one head went down, it was easy to make a quick swap so production wouldn't be held up while repairs were being made. Several of the puppets would be "heroes" capable of multiple functions.
