Nato And Remy’s Last Stand: Chucky’s Die-Light Reel

Thinking up ideas for these articles is hard sometimes, and that's why Remy and myself have a list of go-to topics on the back-burner for when our brains are fried beyond belief. This week happened to be one of those weeks where between work, screenings and writing, there wasn't an ounce of brainpower left. With the well dry, we thought it'd be a perfect time to revisit a segment that we're growing very fond of, our "Die-light Reel" compilations, and while doing so we thought we'd honor one of horror's most iconic slashers - Chucky.

Remy – Child’s Play 3: Garbage Truck Goodbye

First thing’s first, right away this scene is awesome because Chucky yells “SHIIIIT.” I know that sounds juvenile, but I always loved those moments from this series when they just remind you that this is some psycho dude inside of a doll. No one wants to get dropped into a trash truck. Especially one of those trucks that also compacts the trash.

The next thing that makes this scene rule is the fact that he plays off the driver’s humanity and calls out like he is just some human or kid trapped. The garbage guy goes back there to help and, well, you know how it plays out.

I just think the very idea of being crushed alive in a trash compactor is pretty awful. Even worse if you stop to think that this dude was just trying to help someone, and his humanity and sympathy caused his death.

This is why I don’t help people. With anything. Ever.
