Chucky Sneak Peek: The Killer Doll Helps a Friend Out in Class

SYFY and the USA Network have released a Chucky sneak peek clip for Don Mancini’s long-in-development series adaptation of the hit Child’s Play film franchise. The horror series is currently scheduled to make its debut on Tuesday, October 12.

The video features Zackary Arthur’s Jake as he struggles with dissecting a frog during his science class due to his repulsion of blood. Fortunately for him, he has a knife-wielding expert beside him, who’s willing to help a friend out.
