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.

Nato – Child’s Play 2 – Phil Takes A Tumble

Recommended Videos

My last pick isn’t exactly the most exciting of kills in the franchise, but for simple brutality, Phil’s death still remains ingrained in my mind. Perfectly encapsulating everything that makes one of Chucky’s kills memorable, we get Andy being framed, Phil acknowledging Chucky’s presence, a cheeky Chucky one-liner, and a framable death that only points to Andy. Chucky’s manipulation is in full force with this death, still living in a horror universe where scares ruled over comedy, aiding a Child’s Play franchise entry that might arguably be better than the original.

Walking down the basement stairs, Phil sees Andy – after fighting Chucky – holding an electric knife looking scared. Walking down the stairs, trying to calm the shaken child, Chucky waits in the shadows with his usual devious look. As Phil walks down the stairs, Chucky trips Phil, and while he’s hanging off the staircase, he sees Chucky standing, living and breathing. Chuckster makes eye contact, and seeing Phil’s terrified face, he mutters “Hows it hangin’ Phil?” – and drops him, breaking his neck in front of Andy.

Quick and painless, a fate not all of Chucky’s victims are privileged to have, but this haunting cinematic death stands as one of the best throughout the Child’s Play franchise.

Alright Child’s Play fans, how did we do? Did we include your favorite death scene?
