		Does the fine character actor Brad Dourif, as he saddles up to the mic to voice the lines for Chucky, the killer doll, ever wonder what might have been had he not taken his second-ever movie role, as mental-hospital patient Billy Bibbit in 1975's One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest?
		Maybe Dourif -- who apparently has not aged a lick in the past twenty-five years -- was destined to play off-putting weirdos and speech-impediment-afflicted inbreds for the rest of his natural-born life.
		As it stands, Dourif is the human equivalent of a bat flapping out of the shadows, or a sudden sting of frantic string music:he just makes things a wee bit more creepy.

		It was after Dourif costarred as the Mentat "Piter" in David Lynch's 1985 adaptation of Dune in an unusual fright wig and eyebrows that his career choices began to get increasingly weird (and given his roles to this point, that's quite a statement!), sometimes not by choice.
