Chucky is known to be pure evil and hates humans. He enjoys killing and has no guilt about that. Several times he manipulates people using his innocent face and then, when they trust him enough, kills them.
Having several scars on his face and body, Chucky is definitely the scariest doll of all time. A perfect costume for Halloween, though; what is a better way to scare someone than being a killing doll?
1. “I’m Not Going to Give That Up.”-Chucky
Although the movie did not receive much appreciation, it still gave one of Chucky’s most memorable lines where he says I am the most notorious serial killer in history, and I am not going to give that up.
Considering his attitude and his being the only serial killing doll of such vigor, Chucky is surely one of the most dangerous ones out there.
2. “Hi, I’m Chucky. Wanna Play?”-Chucky
Chucky had many one-line phrases in the entire movie franchise; most of them are very witty and sarcastic. One of them is the above one, which can be said to be cute but considering that Chucky was a serial killing doll, this line is outright creepy.
Definitely, in this line, “wanna play” means more than just playing, and that makes it scarier.
3. “I Always Come Back!”-Chucky
This line was in the fourth installment of the child’s play series, the bride of Chucky, and although the movie did not do quite well, it still gave this one very memorable catchphrase, “go ahead. Kill me. I will always come back!”.
4. “Presto! You’re Dead!”-Chucky
One of the most iconic lines of Chucky, every fan of the series must remember this scene where Chucky’s true, raw nature came to the spotlight.

5. “You Just Can’t Keep a Good Guy Down.”-Chucky
Chucky was known for his creepy lines and murderous attitude. In this line, he says that it is hard to keep a good guy dead; they somehow find a way to crawl back into your life.
6. “If this is what it takes to be human, then I’d rather take my chances as a supernaturally-possessed doll! It’s much less complicated! Think about it! What’s so great about being human? You get sick! You get old! As a doll, I’m infamous!”-Chucky
Chucky says the above lines when he is being told about the perks of being human, which he outright declines.

7. “I am Chucky, the killer doll! And I dig it!”-Chucky
If one has to describe Chucky, the serial killing doll, one would say humor plus style suits him best. His sarcastic attitude is one of its most charming characteristics.
It’s one thing to kill but a different matter to fully own and accept your crimes. Knowing that you are doing something wrong and still doing it is the sign of pure evil, which Chucky was.
8. “Every killer needs a cover. I like hiding behind an innocent face.”-Chucky
A doll who is a serial killer would have thought that. Chucky says that to kill and deceive people, everyone needs a cover behind which they can hide, and who would suspect an innocent-looking doll, certainly not me?
Chucky is saying this to jack wheeler as he is trying to manipulate him so he can use his body.
9. “Okay, let me explain something to you. I am a vintage, mass-marketed children’s toy from the ’80s, standing right in front of you, holding a very sharp scalpel.”-Chucky
Though Chucky was a killing doll, he had a sense of humor and some very witty lines. He knew the seriousness and the irony of the situation and often used that to manipulate people. A true, classic, witty killing doll, one might say.
10. “I’ll Make You a Deal. Kill Jake, and I’ll Let You Live.”-Chucky
Chucky was a manipulative, evil doll, and later, he took on manipulating other people to kill. Like he did with Jake, but when Jake outright rejects his offer, he turner to Jake’s cousin, jill, and says thus to him that he will let him live if he kills Jake. Jill accepts the offer, but thankfully he fails at the job.
11. “Chucky Says Move Your Ass!”-Chucky
Not your ordinary doll. Chucky did not have a single normal line. All his quotes and lines were creepy.
Chucky says these lines in child play 2, and although it is funny, it will also creep anyone out if they consider the fact that Chucky is a doll.
12. “You Have a Date with Death.”-Chucky
Chucky said the above lines to Dr. death, who tells him that Chucky can transfer his soul to the first person to whom he has revealed his true identity too, and that is Andy.
So, he said that while I have a date with Andy, you have a date with death as he used a voodoo doll to kill Dr. death.
Though the movie had many sequels, the first one was considered to be the best.
13. “We’re Friends till The End, Remember?”-Chucky
Chucky had many one-liners, and this one would be quite endearing and cute if Chucky was just another doll, but considering that he was a serial killing doll, it made this lien even more creepy, and one can imagine that the end is probably nearer than imagined.
14. “I got a new game we can play. It’s called ‘Hide the Soul.’ Trust me; you’ll love it.”-Chucky

15. “I was broken, Andy. I couldn’t make you smile. But I’m better now. I know how to make you happy now. Maybe you don’t want to be happy. Maybe you’re broken, too.”-Chucky
Chucky was hell-bent on transferring his soul toAndy and hence, took every opportunity he could to kill him.
In the above lines, he says that since he was broken, he could not fulfill his role and could not make Andy happy, but now as Chucky has changed, his way of thinking has changed too, and he thinks maybe Andy was broken. Hence he did not want to be happy.
The first film in the child play series was released in 1988, and the latest one was released in 2019. A tv series based on the same character was also made, and a few video games have also been developed, keeping Chucky as the central character.
