Published on July 2, 2019, Child's Play is a slasher horror movie that has drawn comparisons to the original Chucky film.

The movie follows the story of Andy, a young boy who receives a doll named Buddi as a gift. As the story unfolds, it becomes clear that Buddi has a life of its own and is determined to protect its owner at all costs.

While the movie's premise may seem familiar, it offers a unique twist on the traditional slasher horror genre. Unlike Chucky, who kills for the sake of killing, Buddi has a purpose for its murders, making them feel more understandable, if not justifiable.

The movie's cast delivers a believable performance, particularly in the relationship between Andy's mother and child. The doll, Buddi, is also incredibly creepy, rivaling the original Chucky doll in terms of its unsettling presence.

Overall, Child's Play is a well-crafted horror movie that is sure to delight fans of the genre. However, it's not suitable for young viewers, and parents are advised to exercise caution when watching it with their children.
