Review of Child's Play

Child's Play (1972)
3/10
Nice idea but poorly delivered
15 October 2004
Warning: Spoilers
*minor spoiler*

Boring so-called thriller about a seemingly possessed bunch of students.

The direction is totally unimaginative, while most of the characters are paper-thin. The students are like muppets with no personality at all during the second half of the film, despite signs at the beginning that they would play a significant role in the story - which unfortunately never happens. Beau Bridges is at his most unconvincing, but then again, the script doesn't help him much.

I'd say you better avoid this.
