Fox Mystery Theater: Child's Play (1984)
Season 1, Episode 12
6/10
Cheesy, inventive and bizarre,
5 January 2005
Warning: Spoilers
Minor plot spoilers, beware. A family awakens to find themselves trapped in their own home, all windows and doors sealed by impenetrable walls. Now they are faced with a bitter sequence of paranormal events forces that have taken over their lives. A once peaceful family has become mere toy puppets for a race of alien children and victims of a twisted "child's play". "Child's play" is a cheesy, albeit inventive and enjoyable horror film. The story line is quite good and if you can see through the terrible acting and soap-opera level writing, you'll enjoy it. Not overly intelligent or thought-provoking but its worth watching for its bizarro out-there premise and cheesiness.

6/10.
