Don Mancini
George Donald Mancini (born January 25, 1963) is an American screenwriter and film director, most notable for the ''Child's Play'' franchise. Career Having been a horror fan since his childhood, Mancini's inspiration for '' Child's Play'' were films like '' Trilogy of Terror'' and the " Talky Tina" episode of ''The Twilight Zone'', stating that he knew the killer doll trope, but realized it had never been done as a feature-length film in the age of animatronics.
