A fast run on English or French main roads is child's play compared with the same distance on Italian roads, with their windings and gradients, long narrow crowded village streets and strings of carts all over the road (R. Aldington, ‘All Men Are Enemies’, part IV, ch. V) — Быстрая езда по английским и французским шоссейным дорогам - детская игра в сравнении с ездой по итальянским дорогам с их крутыми поворотами, подъемами и уклонами, длинными узкими улицами в деревнях, запруженными народом, и вереницами обозов на протяжении всего пути.

Play Pals is a toy company that exists within the Child's Play movies. They are primarily responsible for the creation of the Good Guy dolls.

History

Beginnings and Good Guy Success

It is not known when Play Pals was founded in the series, but it was active in Chicago, Illinois, between at least 1988 - 1998. Headed by the CEO Haskell Sullivan, the company gained critical success with their new line of dolls called Good Guys based on an animated children's television show which revolved around the titular Good Guys going on adventures with lonely children. The dolls were renowned for their unique robotics and interactive software that allows a realistic communication between the dolls and their owners. The show had become such a success that it spawned the dolls themselves, accessories for the dolls, breakfast cereal and more.

In an attempt to capture or kill infamous serial killer Charles Lee Ray, The Lakeshore Strangler; Detective Mike Norris, chased down the killer into a toy store containing a large stock of Good Guy dolls. A freak thunderstorm caused the store to explode and burn all but one doll, costing the company thousands of dollars in damage loss. Said doll, found beside the body of the deceased killer. As if things couldn't get any worse, a local Chicago child, Andy Barclay, receives a Good Guy doll for his 6th birthday. A doll named Chucky. After an incident involving the death of Maggie Peterson, rumors speculated of Barclay claiming that the cause of death was his doll. However Chicago Police quelled the rumors, suspecting Barclay of the murder, along with the murder of Eddie Caputo. Prompting Barclay to be taken into Psychiatric Custody by Dr. Ardmore. Andy however escapes the hospital, the police finding the body of Dr. Ardmore strapped into an Electroshock Therapy machine. Andy Barclay was last seen in his residence, alongside his mother Karen, Detective Norris and his partner, Detective Jack Santos, wounded and alongside the charred remains of what used to be the Good Guy Doll. It was claimed by Mrs. Barclay that the doll was believed to be inhabiting the soul of Charles Lee Ray. While Detectives Norris and Santos, deny the claim, Karen sticks to it, causing her to be committed to a Psychiatric Hospital while Andy is placed in foster care. Although the claims have been quelled, numerous concerned parents, had sent complaints to the Play Pal, concerning their own Good Guy Dolls, causing their stocks to plummet, however, in a bid to keep stock holders from dropping out, Sullivan demanded an investigation on the matter.

It is unknown if whether or not the doll was bought legally or through bribery, but the charred remains were reclaimed by the company to investigate the accusations made surrounding Andy Barclay. Press speculated the notion that one of the technicians could have tampered with the voice cassette of the doll as part of a cruel joke, but while the cosmetic features of the doll were burned, the primary internal workings were discovered to have remained mostly intact with no signs of previous tampering or alteration. During reconstruction of the doll with new parts under the strict supervision of Mr. Sullivan and executive Elliot Mattson, one technician was electrocuted and violently thrown into the observation window as a result of malfunctioning equipment, killing him instantly. The following morning, Mattson was found suffocated in his car at a park not too far from the Simpson residence, where Barclay was staying. He had been restrained using toy jump ropes and was left with a plastic bag pulled over his head. It is unknown as to why he drove to that specific location. Two nights after the murder, there was a break in at the Play Pals factory, which was laid waste with doll boxes trashed throughout and doll parts clogging the assembly line. Among the most notable features of this incident was that of a dead factory worker who was working double shift as a security guard, found on the assembly line with two plastic eyes gouged into his eye sockets. Although his death was believed to be the result of an accident while attempting to repair the damages caused to the machinery, an uncharacteristically deep facial laceration raised suspicion of foul play. Finally, a large pile of molten plastic was discovered near the distributor. As a result of the incident, the factory was shut down and condemned. Police had also reported the deaths of Joanne and Phil Simpson Barclay's foster mother and father, and Grace Poole, Barclay's social worker. Andy Barclay was reported missing and at large alongside Kyle, his foster sister. The latter presumably a hostage.

Within eight years after the incident, Barclay was apprehended and sent to numerous foster homes, before settling at the Kent Military Academy at age 16. The condemned Play Pals factory was reopened and cleaned up in preparation for the newly announced revival of Good Guy dolls after the damages and negative publicity had subsided. In celebration of the event, Chris Sullivan was offered the first from the new line of dolls. Things seemed to be looking up for the company. However, only hours after speculation of the final product meeting, Sullivan was found dead in his penthouse apartment due to a combination of blunt force trauma and strangulation. With the CEO's death and a recent incident involving the chopped remains of the Good Guy Doll found at an amusement park neighboring the military academy, the company filed for bankruptcy as the public started to realize that what Andy said might be the truth after all and stayed away from the Good Guy doll product. What was left of their products had become rare collectors items in the years to come.

Child's Play is an American supernatural action horror film. It was released in the United States on November 9, 1988.

The film met with moderate success upon its release and has since developed a cult following among fans of the horror genre. The film is the first in the Child's Play film series, which was originally a whodunnit film in contrast to the later sequels. This was the only film in the series released by MGM/UA as the rights to the series were sold to Universal beginning with the sequel.

While being pursued by Detective Mike Norris, 30-year-old Charles Lee Ray, a serial killer known as the "Lakeshore Strangler," is shot and mortally wounded. Before dying, Charles quickly takes cover inside a toy store, finding boxes of Good Guy dolls. He proceeds to use a voodoo ritual to transfer his soul into one of the dolls. The store is then struck by lightning and it burns to the ground, killing Charles.

Later that morning, 6-year-old Andy Barclay tells his widowed mother Karen that he wants a Good Guy doll for his birthday after watching a TV commercial for it. Unable to afford the full price, Karen buys a stolen doll from a street peddler, which is the same doll that Charles had earlier transferred his soul into.

That night, as Andy is playing with the doll (who has introduced himself as "Chucky" through the talking feature of the doll), Karen's friend and Andy's "aunt" Maggie Peterson, who is babysitting Andy, scolds him for turning on the evening news and placing Chucky in front of the TV. When Andy tries to tell Maggie that he didn't put Chucky in front of the TV, she doesn't believe him and sends him and the doll to bed. Later on, Maggie is viciously struck with a toy hammer by an unknown figure and falls out of the apartment window, falling several stories to her ultimate death. The killer's identity is left ambiguous. When questioned, Andy insists that Chucky has revealed himself to be alive and that he killed Maggie, though he defends Chucky's decision by stating that Chucky told him that "Aunt Maggie was a real bitch" and that she "got what she deserved". Unfortunately, no one believes Andy's side of the story.

The next day, Andy, apparently upon Chucky's request, visits the house of Eddie Caputo, Charles Lee Ray's accomplice, who had betrayed him and led him to his death. Chucky is revealed as being alive. He sneaks into Eddie's house and blows out the pilot light on the stove and turns up the gas. In panicked self-defense, Eddie fires his gun and the house explodes, killing him.

Later, authorities place Andy in a psychiatric ward after he is found near the crime scene. Karen believes the doll to be the culprit after she realizes that his batteries had never been put in. She demands he talk, but when he doesn't, she goes to make him talk by lighting a match into the fireplace. Finally, Karen threatens to throw Chucky into the fire unless he reveals himself to her. Chucky finally comes to life in her hands and bites her in the neck, wrist, and arm (causing bloody teeth marks). Karen finally manages to throw Chucky off of her and he gets up and runs out of the apartment. Quickly, Karen contacts Detective Norris, who is now investigating Maggie's death. Although he initially doubts her story, the homeless man who sold Karen the doll confirms that he retrieved it from the burnt down toy store where Charles Lee Ray was killed. Later on, Norris becomes a firm believer after he is attacked by Chucky in his car and survives only by shooting the doll.

Later on, Chucky meets with John Bishop, his voodoo instructor from years past, and asks him why his gunshot wound bled. Under torture via voodoo doll, John informs him that his body is slowly conforming to that of a human's and that he will soon be trapped in the body if he doesn't transfer his soul into the body of the first person he revealed himself to, which is Andy. Offhandedly remarking that he is going to "get to be 6 years old again", Chucky finally stabs the voodoo doll in the chest and leaves John to die. Karen and Detective Norris, following leads from Charles Lee Ray's case file, find John as he lay dying and receive instructions on how to kill Chucky; although Chucky is a doll, his heart is almost fully human and vulnerable to fatal injury.

Andy escapes from the psychiatric unit and Chucky brutally kills the head doctor in the process. The authorities believe Andy killed the doctor while escaping. Mike and Karen rush back to the apartment hoping that Andy is there. Chucky reaches the apartment where Andy is and knocks him unconscious with a baseball bat to steal his soul. After a prolonged struggle, Chucky pleads for Andy to spare him saying, "We're friends till the end", Chucky is then thrown into the fireplace by Karen and is lit on fire by Andy after he throws the match in the fireplace stating, "this is the end friend".

Thinking Chucky is dead, Andy and Karen go to help the injured Mike Norris. After Andy gets the first aid kit from under the sink, he discovers Chucky is gone. Very burnt but alive, Chucky chases after Andy and Karen, who barricade themselves in the bedroom; Karen shoots him several times, missing his heart, but scattering his head, an arm and a leg in the hallway. Chucky starts stabbing the doors with a knife so that Karen will open it. After Norris's partner, Jack Santos, arrives, the scattered doll parts attempt to attack at the instructions of Chucky's screaming, severed head. Karen, remembering John's last words, tells Mike to shoot Chucky in the heart. Norris does so and makes a direct hit, killing Chucky (Charles Lee Ray), again.

An ambulance arrives to take Mike to the hospital. Karen and Jack help Mike walk out the door, but Andy stays and looks over the remains of Chucky. Karen returns and leads Andy out of the room and turns off the lights. Andy turns to look at Chucky one last time before leaving. Chucky then says, "Hi, I'm Chucky. Wanna play?" as his last dying words.
