The '80s gave birth to a new generation of horror with several slasher movie franchises, and if you're looking to build a blood-soaked collection of Blu-rays, you can grab the entire Child's Play series with the Chucky: 7-Movie Collection on Blu-ray. The box set is substantially discounted to $25 (was $60) during the remainder of Amazon's Prime Day 2025 sale, which ends today, July 11.
The first Child's Play movie was released in 1988, and it revolved around a serial killer who escaped death by performing a voodoo ritual to transfer his soul into the titular "Chucky" doll. Not wanting to stay trapped inside of a toy body for all eternity, Chucky concocts a plot to murder the family that purchased him and place his soul inside a young boy who knows that he's evil. The film was a surprise hit, and it spawned two more sequels in 1990 and 1991, as Chucky kept managing to to come back from the dead.
Following a hiatus of several years, more Child's Play movies were regularly produced starting with 1998's Bride of Chucky. The box set comes with a chunky selection of bonus materials, examining the creation of the series, its cultural impact, feature commentary tracks from the cast and crew, several featurettes, and much more.
It's worth noting that this bundle doesn't include the 2019 reboot, which made several major changes to the source material. In this film, Chucky is an AI-powered killer doll--somebody clearly set it to Evil--voiced by Mark Hamill, and the movie also starred Aubrey Plaza. This is available on Blu-ray, and you can pick it up in either standard or 4K formats.
We've also included a list of several other Blu-ray box sets you can grab during Prime Day. Sticking with horror, you experience the terror of the Nightmare on Elm Street series, as this has been discounted to $20 (was $45), and in the modern era of filmmaking, Jordan Peele's double-feature of Get Out and Us is a masterclass in suspense. If you'd just prefer some straight-up gore, then the Saw series is a great way to lose your appetite--and possibly your lunch.
