Amafilimu e-Chucky akhule aba ngaphezu kwalokho abeyikho ekuqaleni: ukuphawula mayelana nokuziphatha okuqoqwayo kwezitolo. Ngaphandle kwalokho wonke umuntu uya-oda ku-inthanethi manje futhi leso sipho sikaKhisimusi wonke umuntu asifunayo singathengwa ku-Ebay. Mhlawumbe uLwesihlanu Olumnyama luyinsalela yokugcina yokushiseka kwabathengi kusheke lokukhokha ukuze ukhokhe, "People of Walmart" emhlabeni.

Eyokuqala Izingane zokudlala yabonisa ukuhlanya kwabathengi bama-80's, kodwa yanikeza imuvi eqinile esabekayo enombulali obulalayo, inunu engalibaleki kanye nentsha ecindezelekile. Igolide elisabekayo!

Into eyodwa wonke lawa mafilimu afana ngayo nguDon Mancini, uGeorge Lucas we-horror. Nakuba kungahlolisiswa esidlangalaleni ngokushintsha izinto kufilimu yesine neyesihlanu njengoba uLucas ayenaye, uMancini unikeza abalandeli lokho abakufunayo, futhi uma befuna ukubona ukukhululeka kwamahlaya yilokho abakutholayo. Igazi elengeziwe? Hlola.

Kodwa kwakunjalo ngo-2004. Ngalawa amabili okugcina Izingane zokudlala Okulandelayo, uMancini ushiye iningi lokucasuka ngemuva futhi ugxile ezintweni ezithinta ukungezwani esikhundleni se-acerbic wit. Futhi lokho kulungile.

Isiqalekiso sikaChucky (2013) bekungelinye lamafilimu athusayo ahamba phambili engake ngawabona esikhathini eside, adala ukungabaza phakathi kwezindonga zendlu endala esabekayo eneqhawekazi elihamba ngesihlalo esinamasondo kanye nenqwaba yabalingisi abanyama okwangishiya ngizibuza ukuthi kungani UMancini akakaze enze umzamo owengeziwe kunoma yini enye ngaphandle kwe-franchise yakhe ayithandayo.

Esitolimendeni sakhe sakamuva i-buzzword-worthy Ihlelo likaChucky, uhambisa isimo se-claustrophobic ewodini yengqondo aphinde asonte indaba yakhe ibe amafindo amaningi aqaqa ngesithombe esidonsa amehlo, ukudlala okuqinile, kanye nokubulala okudabukisayo.

Nge-slapstick encane kanye nokuba ngokoqobo okwengeziwe, lokhu okufakiwe kungase kulingane noma kube ngcono nakakhulu kunokugcina kwakhe. Amahlaya asekhona, kodwa intelezi itholakala ngobuqili bayo, hhayi unodoli onomlomo ongcolile. Ngokuphefumulelwe, u-Chucky ushiya umlayezo echibini legazi okufakazela ukuthi akudingeki asho noma yini ukuze akwenze uhleke.

Kulokhu u-Chucky nesitha sakhe u-Nica basalelwe ukulwa endaweni yokukhosela. Eminyakeni emine ngemuva kwezehlakalo zefilimu yokugcina, u-Nica usalokhu elwa neqiniso. Iziguli akanye nazo zizwa izindaba ezinhle mayelana nesikhathi sakhe emazweni angaphandle futhi ziyashesha ukumthatha njengombulali omkhulu.

Ushiywe ukuze aphile ukuphila ngesihlalo esinamasondo, u-Nica usevele esesimweni esibucayi, futhi isimo sakhe sengqondo siyabazisa, into umelaphi wakhe azama ukuyidabula, kodwa angase angabi yilokho abonakala ngakho.

Izindaba ezidabukisayo ziza ngendlela yesivakashi u-Tiffany odlalwa u-Jennifer Tilly ohlale ejabulisa, ophinde alethele u-Nica isipho esiwuhlobo lukanodoli u-Chucky. Umshana kaNica ushonile futhi unodoli ngandlela thize ushiye kuNica esibhedlela.

Kodwa sesiyazi kakade ukuthi lena akuyona real Unodoli we-Good Guy, noma kunjalo?

Original Izingane zokudlala iqhawe u-Andy Barclay wembulwa ekuqaleni ukuthi abe noChucky wangempela amhlukumeza ngokuphindisela nsuku zonke. Yebo, u-Alex Vincent ubuyela endimeni yakhe yokuqala ngesikhathi esanelisayo sokuthi "bakuphi manje".

Izibalo zamanje zika-Nica ezivimbelayo ziphenduka igazi futhi izingxabano ezingaphezu kowodwa kamuva, uMancini wenza inguquko yokugcina kulokho ebesicabanga ukuthi isiphetho esifanelekile. Kunjengokungathi ucabangele amafilimu amathathu alandelayo.

UFiona Dourif wazalelwa ukudlala le ngxenye. Ama-welds ku-filigree yakhe yokulingisa acindezelwe kahle. Uletha izinga lokuyinkimbinkimbi ekusebenzeni kwakhe okuzwakalayo kakhulu enikezelwe ukwakheka kwezinto. Okusho ukuthi, angase abe neziqu eziphakeme.

Lokhu kuzibophezela okufanayo kuyiqiniso ku-Brad Dourif ozwakalisa u-Chucky, okwenza leli libe elinye lama-Dichotomies e-Villain akhumbuleka kakhulu ku-Hero emlandweni wakamuva we-movie ethusayo.

Ihlelo likaChucky iyi-franchise engavamile kakhulu, ake sithi I-Star Trek: Iyakwazi ukuzicabangela kabusha, futhi ikwenze kahle ngenxa yethalente elingemuva kwayo.

Ukuhlakanipha kokubhala okwenziwa abadlali abazinikele nabanekhono yikho ngempela okufunwa ngabalandeli abathusayo. Uma ucabanga ngakho, singase sikhononde mayelana nokwenza kabusha-lokhu noma ukuqalisa kabusha lokho, kodwa sizolandela inqobo nje uma okubalulekile kusiphatha ngenhlonipho.

Futhi yilokho uMancini akwenzayo lapha, bese kuba okunye. Usinika u-“Chucky” kodwa akathuki ubuhlakani bethu ngokuhlehlisa okungenangqondo kwezinto okungenzeka “zisebenze” kumafilimu adlule. Kunalokho, ulokhu eyishintsha, ethuthukisa laba balingisi, ephefumulela impilo entsha kubo. Futhi lokho kuya kumklamo wokukhiqiza futhi. Okuxakayo ukuthi, usinikeze i-franchise eyisibonelo sokuthile okugqugquzelwe ifilimu yokuqala: isidingo esiyimpoqo sokungaphezulu.

Ukulandelanisa okuhamba kahle, okunomdlalo wesikrini ogcwele izimanga, Ihlelo likaChucky ngokuzinikela unikeza abalandeli okuthile okungaphezu kwalokho abakulindele. Ayihlambalazi ubuhlakani babo kodwa iyakwazi ukushweleza labo abafuna igazi kuphela.

Unya ngenhliziyo, ubuhlakani kanye nomphefumulo omningi.

Ihlelo likaChucky isiyatholakala ku-Blu-ray, digital kanye ne-VOD. Ungahlola futhi lesi sitolimende sakamuva kuNetflix kusukela namuhla.
