By Yang Hsin-hui and Sherry Hsiao / Staff reporter, with staff writer“Where’s the mayor?” Taipei City Councilor Wang Shih-chien (王世堅) shouted on Wednesday while holding a blood-smeared prop knife at the Taiwan premiere of Child’s Play in Taipei as part of publicity for the movie. Didn’t [he] say [he] was going to come?”The skit prompted laughter from audience members, some of whom asked to be photographed with Wang and shouted: “Good luck, Wang Shih-chien.”Wang told the audience that seeing the premiere of the original Child’s Play film in 1988 had brought him and his girlfriend, now his wife, closer. He and Chucky are both “good people,” Wang told reporters. However, unlike Chucky, he is “good to good people, and bad to bad people,” he said. Asked whether Ko Wen-je or Chucky is “scarier,” Wang said Chucky is “much cuter.”Chucky only turned evil after being possessed; he was not evil from the beginning, he added.
