Well folks, there you have it. The entire “Chucky” series review.
It’s been so much fun looking over one of my favourite franchises.
There is no doubting that “Chucky” has had a huge impact over the years and has become a part of modern horror and pop culture. ‘Chucky’ and ‘Tiffany’ have become the new ‘Frankenstein’ and his ‘Bride’, it’s a seriously popular cosplay for couples and not one Halloween has gone by since “Bride Of Chucky” was released where I haven’t seen a couple in them costumes.
As usual with anything popular the merchandise is just as important as the films, there’s dolls, t-shirts etc and there’s even been a comic series produced. I actually really enjoyed the comics and felt they captured the spirit of the early films which is harder to do on paper than in film.
The true star of the films is undoubtedly Brad Dourif, you can feel it’s a role he relishes and the amount of work he put into the voicework is amazing, To help get into the right mood for ‘Chucky’ he would run around the recording studio, work himself up into a real frenzy and then deliver his lines. That must of taken a huge toll on him.
With the success among fans of the latest offering “Curse Of Chucky” there’s hope that there’s a bright (or should that be dark) future for the ‘Chucky’ series. It was definitely a return to form and if they keep that going it could certainly win back a-lot of fans who felt it all went wrong with “Seed Of Chucky”, I was one of them.
The “Chucky” series is highly enjoyable, it’s full of blood and laughs and who doesn’t love THAT laugh?!
