After a botched robbery during which one of them takes a grisly wound to the hand, two brothers hide out in a small desert town. Before you can say ‘abrupt tonal shift’ they’re besieged by bloodthirsty monsters and fighting for their lives against forces darker and nastier than they could ever hope to be. No, not vampires – crazies and cannibals.

From the desert-drenched visuals to the wannabe left-field tonal shift and ‘badass’ sibling duo, it’s quite obvious from the outset that Drifter really wants to be From Dusk Till Dawn. It’s a comparison that’s openly welcomed; a film which would love to have “From Dusk Till Dawn meets...

Just as he did in his films, Chucky has lots to say from his trademark “My name is Chucky” to far more sinister phrases.

The star of the Child’S Play films, Chucky stands fifteen inches tall and features real cloth Good Guys clothing, eleven points of articulation, his trademark orange hair and realistic glass-like eyes.
