    #5 - Child's Play

    S1:E5

    Stephen King was the first to immerse children in horror stories. Childhood is always linked to innocence in the collective imagination, and horror movies relished to contrast that with characters like Chucky and other evil dolls. The scriptwriters and directors have subsequently taken a malicious pleasure in perverting things even more to destabilize the spectator.
