Child's Play 2 (1990)

  Play Pals Toys is in hot water after one of their Good Guy dolls was possessed by serial killer Charles Lee Ray (Brad Dourif).  The executives recovered the burned husk from the Barclay house, cleaned it up, and checked everything to make sure there were no mechanical defects.  Minus one tiny electrocution, everything seems above board.  But Chucky will not be denied a human body.  He discovers that the little boy he first told his secret to, Andy (Alex Vincent), has been placed in a foster home.  Joanne (Jenny Agutter) is thrilled to have a new little boy but Phil (Gerrit Graham) is wary of inviting a severely disturbed child into their household.  They already have their hands full with Kyle (Christine Elise), who has been bounced from four previous homes.  All of Phil's trepidations seem to come true as terrible things start happening around Andy.  He knows it's the evil doll but who's going to believe a six-year-old?

I had seen this movie only in parts, channel surfing as a kid.  It's a really decent sequel.  The character arcs seem to follow a logical path, which shows good attention to detail.  The only detraction would be the 90's yuppie executive character in the beginning, who is so stereotypical for that time.  What was it about movies from the late 80's-early 90's where you had to have a sniveling yes-man who drove a Jaguar?  Anyway, I definitely enjoyed watching this one and hope the rest can keep up the streak.
