Domenico Martinelli an ordained preist (1669) was the author of a book on elementary clock which bore the title "Horologi Elementari". In this book Domenico advocates employing the call of the cuckoo to designate the hours. At that time the mechanics of a working cuckoo clock was already known, and any clockmaker who could also ready would realize that it was both practical and advantageous to have the cuckoo sound off the hours.

IMDb synopsis:
A family awakens to find themselves trapped in their own home, all windows and doors sealed by impenetrable walls. Now they are faced with a bitter sequence of paranormal events forces that have taken over their lives.
IMDb review:
"Child's Play" is like a stage play. Just three characters~a family~who awaken at 4:10 a.m. to find themselves trapped in their own home. We learn very early on about the steel fortress and the mysterious symbol that constantly appears. A sense of impending doom and claustrophobia pervade throughout, and the final scene is shocking in its execution. "A true story. Which has just been told before its time" reads the caption on the final reel.
IMDb review excerpt:
A once peaceful family have become mere toy puppets for a race of alien children and victims of twisted "child's play".
Here's the opening of the episode:

The very first Black Forest Cuckoo Clocks: It isn't identified who built the very first cuckoo clocks in the Black Forest, but is is known that this fascinating and appealing clock swiftly circumvented the realm. One of the earliest recognized Cuckoo Clock makers was Franz Anton Ketterer (1676-1749) whose heritage is within the Sch?nwald in Schwarzwald. By the mid eighteenth century several clock makers had set up shops and were producing cuckoo clocks that worked with the aid of wooden plates and gears. The clocks had been beautifully carved and decorated with hand painted shields. The first Cuckoo Clocks had been incredibly fundamental having only square faces and painted with water colors. As the clocks evolved and grew far more refined in their designs, they were also embellished with animated birds who flapped their wings and moved their beaks. There are several conflicting stories and legends which tell the story of the origins of the Cuckoo Clock inside the Black Forest, but none of the stories might be verified. We also have to don't forget that the idea of placing a cuckoo bird in a clock complete with sound and movement didn't originate in the Black Forest. Nevertheless it can be the people of the Black Forest who developed in business, and improved on the technologies and designs which have produced Black Forest Cuckoo Clocks highly desired timepieces all over the world. "Time is gold" as the saying goes and so are clocks like the Logo Wall Clock you can see on this page. The value of time imprinted on the clocks created.
In 1738, Anton Ketterer added a cuckoo bird to his clocks, and thought rapidly spread. Cuckoo clock making became a highly specialized craft with distinct artisans creating distinct parts of the clock. A pendulum was now used as opposed to the old technique, and new innovations were normally taking location. Styles of Cuckoo Clocks Each clock had its own exclusive design, but particular basic styles emerged. By the mid 1800's, two styles predominated: the framed clock along with the railway house. The framed clock consisted of a wooden frame and painted inner section where the clock face could be attached. It was normally painted with Black Forest scenes and had the cuckoo situated in the upper section of the clock. The railway house design was shaped like a home and was usually decorated with grape vines, ivy, flowers, or animals.
