Someone needs to send this movie to Fede Alvarez because THIS is how you revisit a franchise. This is how you build on the mythology of a franchise while simultaneously starting something new.
Well yeah of course I love this movie. It’s an amazing revival of the series with a terrific setting. Don Mancini really knows how to make these movies work. The dining room table scene is great and the murder that happens afterwards is just sublime. I’m a bit torn on the version of the actual Chucky doll in this one, especially in the beginning. I’m not sure if he gets better once he gets evil or if he just grows on you, but it didn’t bother me as much after the kills started.
Fiona Dourif is magnifique. More horror movies for her please.
I feel like Curse of Chucky took itself too seriously. I miss the self conscious silliness of the previous Chucky movies that this movie lacked.
Prepping for Cult of Chucky and I really liked this entry, especially the tense af vegan chili showdown scene lol.
I grew up into Horror-Land in the 1980's, which was when "Horror Came Home", as it were, from the grindhouse and the drive-in and set up camp within shopping malls and living rooms, entering into domestic space and what passed for semi-public corporatist space where kids could hang out with their friends, get kicked out of food courts, sneak into R-rated slashers, etc. Horror wasn't so much "out-there", something foreign which had to be traveled to as now something which could be lived with, watched over and over, beloved and honored, made warm with affection, as personal as masscult could be, and as shared as an inherently private experience as fear can be.
As long as there have been scary…
Mancini tries to reroute away from the postmodern wackiness of his previous entries and back towards the simple commercial slasher origins of the Child's Play films while still incorporating the gleefully, graphically violent antics and bizarre lore he's built for himself over 6 movies now. Not all of it works but I was impressed at how much effort is put into making all these movies fit together narratively (though the inclusion of what feels like 4 post-credits stingers gets a bit much), and the back-to-basics approach to the suspense sequences and creepy gothic house setting really lets him show off his low-budget visual wit. Loved all the split and reflection imagery! Brad Dourif is also still having a blast in…
