8 Post-Credits Movie Scenes That Actually Led To Something Awesome

The Child's Play franchise is by no means cinematic gold, but it's managed to deliver a consistently entertaining stream of movies for several decades now, with only a couple of true low points. Curse Of Chucky - the fifth sequel - is one of the better films in the series, a funny, bloody good ride from start to end, and to top it all off, it has a great post-credits scene that leads into equally-solid sequel Cult Of Chucky.

This final stinger shows an unnamed character receiving a large package, which he rests on a table before taking a phone call. As Chucky begins to cut his way out of this package, the camera pans to some photographs, which reveal that the unnamed character is Andy Barclay, who's had a recurring role in the franchise since the very first film. Andy's history with Chucky means that he's ready for the killer doll this time, and just as Chucky bursts out of the box with a sinister smile on his face, Andy points a gun at his head and pulls the trigger.

This tag led into Cult Of Chucky, another great entry in the series and one that took the Child's Play formula in a fresh and exciting direction. In the film, it's revealed that Andy has been torturing Chucky's disembodied head, which, to be fair, is probably deserved.
