Damien Baylock is a fictional character featured in the Child's Play film series. Played by actress (formerly an actor) Alexis Arquette, he appeared in the fourth installment in the series Bride of Chucky.
Biography[]
Damien Baylock was the Goth alias used by insurance salesman Howard Fitzwater. Howard was a resident of the town of Lockport, Illinois and was romantically involved with a female serial killer known as Tiffany. Tiffany treated Damien as more of an apprentice than a lover and Damien grew frustrated when Tiffany continued to withhold affection from him. Damien tried to impress Tiffany by pretending to murder someone, but in truth, he had simply done himself up in gory makeup and snapped a photograph. Tiffany immediately saw through the ruse.
Tiffany had recently acquired the remains of a Good Guy doll named Chucky, which she knew housed the spirit of her former lover Charles Lee Ray. Using a "Voodoo for Dummies" book, she conducted a ritual to awaken Chucky's spirit inside the doll. Although the ritual had a delayed reaction, it did succeed in bringing her one true love back to her.
Death[]
Unfortunately for Damien, he did not realize that the Chucky doll in Tiffany's trailer was alive and made several rude comments and gestures towards it, even taking measure to mockingly sodomize it. Chucky sprung to life, ripping a lip ring out of Damien's face before suffocating him to death with a pillow. [1]
