With the release of Blumhouses and Atomic Monsters The Monkey, weve thinking about what other toys might be ripe for the haunting horror flick adaptation. From M3GAN to Chucky, theres certainly no dearth of killer doll movies out there already, but the match between Osgood Perkins and The Monkey gave Stephen King and giddy horror gore hounds something to laugh about this week with the filmmakers gallows humor driving a slick bloody good time. So what other toys deserve the horror treatment? Theres definitely a number of childhood toys to pair the genre with, and while some have specific IP that would never go for a horror films use,, theres plenty of creative ways around itAnnabelle, for another example in that killer doll genre, was inspired by stories of a real haunted Raggedy Ann doll. So heres five more toys that we think could make it work to frightful effect on the big. The Slime Cult Michaels Kids these days are big on slime. Its odd but from mass marketed slime products to DIY ones, the goop has em good. So what better way to take that trend and give a spooky underpinning? Its perfect for a Blob send up, or a slime cult that controls kids via ASMR videos. The Substances Coralie Fargeat has said she doesnt have plans for a sequel, but she would be the perfect candidate to direct a gross and fun parable for parents who let their kids get consumed by the slime in a similar vein. Furby Getty Images The excellent Mitchells vs The Machines already gave us a great bit with violent creepy Furbies, so why not a whole movie? Honestly someone like Taika Waititi should go ham on a Furby horror filmtheyre creepy and kooky so its right up his alley. Plus who didnt have a Furby that somehow lived for ages and wouldnt die? I shudder thinking about the random luggage filled with old toys I accidentally hit while rummaging for Christmas decor last year, which unleashed the Furby sounds going off from within randomly throughout the day and night. We couldnt figure out how to get the hideous bleating to stop so we donated it. Someone elses problem, it is what it is, but also? Killer premise for a movie. Tickle Me Elmo Joe Raedle (Getty Images) Okay, so obviously Sesame Street would never let Elmo be the center of a horror film. However, there was a really freaky true story of a kid who had one that alleged that it not only talked to him, but according to the Tampa Bay Times, also was found by his mother purportedly urging the child to kill in a sing-song voice. You wouldnt need the licenseyou could just make it a generic, perhaps even red and fuzzy, plush talking toy of a similar design and scope (tickle me Elmo might be iconic, but its far from the only toy of its kind). This could be adapted into a fuzzy puppet toy being possession film, with a ghost who can speak to its child through the voice box. Whod be game for a kids darkly whimsical and suspenseful ghost story? Were thinking I Saw the TV Glows Jane Schoenbrun.Cabbage Patch Kids Photo: Wallocha/ullstein bild (Getty Images) Itd be easy to riff on dolls like the Cabbage Patch Kids or American Girl, these idealized versions of perfect little girlsleaning a bit more cutesy than something like M3GAN, which played on similar tropes. Were thinking families in mourning have their kids consciousness uploaded into dolls to help them cope, but they go haywire. In the real life there were reports that the Snacktime Kids Edition of the Cabbage Patch dolls were chomping on kids, and their hair could get caught in the mechanism. Zoe Kravitz showed she could handle a thriller vibe in Blink Twiceitd be fun to see her try a take on the popular 90s dolls she may have grown up with. Huggy Wuggy Mob Entertainment This is a toy that kids clearly know is evil, but they still want it anyways. Thats already weird, but it only gets weirder, because these horrifyingly ugly-looking fuzzy monsters have spread like wildefire, and can be found all over, whether its the official version or in myriad knockoffs of various colors at swap meets and markets, plastered with that sharp, toothy smile. Although Huggy Wuggy started off as a character in the indie horror video game in Poppys Playtimealready set to get the film adaptation treatment from Legendarythe design is just too good to not include, or imagine a standalone idea for. Maybe one that goes meta and leans into the toys omnipresent, viral popularity in our own world, even among kids whove never heard of Poppys Playtime, let alone played it. Hypnotic and viral? Nope. Dont like that. We dont know whos been tapped for thePoppys Playtime movie yet, but as for our picks here?
