HE'S BACK

>>84456456
It looks...ok. Haven't seen the one before this so I'm not up on the story after Seed of Chucky. I'll give it a try.

>>84456456
I'm not scared of you anymore, motherfucker.
Fuck you for those sleepless nights.

>>84456582
When I was a kid a poster of him with scars was in the window of a movie rental. I was extremly scared of him too. Nowadays I love Chucky movies. I was also scared of an Mars Attack poster tho, so I was probably just a a wimp

>>84456582
I used to think Chuckie was funny even back when I was a kid. Like how do you even get scared, he was throwing around 1 liners everytime he was on screen

>>84456697
Yes, I think when had actually watched the movies as a kid I'd have liked them back then already. But since I wasnt allowed to and only saw that particular menacing movie poster... well.

>>84456560
>up on the story
wan't the last one a reboot? or is this the reboot?

or I'm thinking of the Leprechaun one, maybe. hard to keep up with this shit

>>84456643
I always thought he was hiding right behind the corner of my bedroom. Didn't dare to close my eyes.

>>84456697
When my mom was doing groceries I hung around the movie rental store and looked at the covers and descriptions of movies. That's what made it scary.

>>84456806
Curse wasn't a reboot, but it wasn't a direct sequel either. It's definitely for long-time Chucky fans, yet accessible for newcomers. Cult takes off after Curse.

>>84456972
thanks, anon

>>84456972
was curse the one with the wheelchair girl?
Whatever that movie was, I remember that I was appaled by it because Chucky looked smooth and dolly like for the majority of the movie and I thought that's just the new style. But he went back to his scared face and all was good again

AND HE'S DIRECT TO VIDEO

why are you guys scared? just kick him then rip him apart
it's a doll for christ sake

>>84457072
>was curse the one with the wheelchair girl?
yep

>>84457085
so was the last one and it was one of the best in the franchise

Curse was really fucking good. Renewed my faith in contemporary horror.
I'll watch Cult for sure, but the scene where Andy blew Chucky's fucking head off post-credits was like a good night kiss from the franchise and I would be 1000% OK if that is where the story ended forever. Kind of disappointed that this film may retcon that.

>>84457268
the call of more money is strong. I'm glad they at least make kind of good movies with Chucky, since they are not restricted by iconic actors (like the abyssmal Nightmare on Elm Street remake)

>>84456697
he progressively got funnier as the movies went on

>>84456456
dinklage ain't looking too good these days

>>84457368
Just like Freddy Krueger. A crossover of those two would be neat, but I doubt Robert Englund is still up for the role

>scared of Chucky

Even as a kid, I thought I could whoop his ass. Chucky, Jason and Ghostface didn't really scare me back then. Texas Chainsaw, Elm Street and Exorcist gave me nightmares for years, though.

Oh goodie, another meme no one cares about

It's weird that this and Curse were filmed in my city but I never heard a word of it.

Child's Play = Bride of Chucky > Curse of Chucky > Child's Play 2 > Child's Play 3 > Seed of Chucky.

One of the best-quality horror franchises. Seed of Chucky is really the only bad movie and even that was entertaining.

>>84457137

To be fair, he is a tough motherfucker. If he was stalking you down, you'd be hard pressed to find him because he's so goddamn small.

>>84457590

>tfw Candyman, Pumpkinhead and Hellraiser are all good, but shit-tier franchises

>>84457661
Hellraiser had amazing practical effects and visuals. I pretty much only watch them occasionaly because of that. The story is garbage

>>84456456
Unless there's finally a scene where some guy knows Chucky has human parts inside the doll body and wants to kidnap him for his own personal fucktoy in it I'm not touching the movie.

>>84457686
>Hellraiser
>amazing practical effects

HAHAHAHAHAHA no

the three reasons to watch it are frank, julia and pinhead

>>84457590
uh this is the OFFICIAL RANKING:

Child's Play > Child's Play 2 = Child's play 3 > Curse > bride >> seed

Curse was fucking garbage, nothing can be worse than seed tho

No. Child's Play 2 is better than 3, they're not equal.

>>84457590
>Child's Play = Bride of Chucky > Curse of Chucky > Child's Play 2

This may be one of the worst rankings of any franchise I have ever seen on here.

>>84458344
it probably was the exact same poster too. I was scared of a lot of images when I was a kid.
Embarassing story: My first encounter with horror movie content on screen was Scary Movie 4. I got incredibly scared of the Grudge parody when the ghost kid crawls/falls down the stairs.

>>84457979
What are you talking about? I'm not even a big Hellraiser fan, but I'll admit the effects are great.

>>84457661
saw series as well

>>84456643
I remember around Halloween time, my Spencer's gift store at the mall used to have a realistic, expensive ass Chucky doll in the window of the store. I used to hide my eyes as I walked past, nigga

I genuinely enjoyed every Chuckie film and hope they stay enjoyable for the foreseeable future .

don't even get me started on the stop-motion and blue screen shit in II and III

Frank's resurrection and the make-up effects were fucking great, though

>>84456972
Its a direct sequel, Tiffany in her human body is the one who mails Chucky and kills that guy at the end. Chucky also reference being around for 25 years after the events of child's play 1 which we know took place because in the rated version Andy is repeatedly referenced in news articles and in the unrated he shows up in the post credit sequence.

>>84458760
Same, even seed has its own weird shitty charm to me.

>>84459091
I really like seed as a comedy. The kid is kinda obnoxious but the chucky and tiffany trying to be a parent portions are pretty cool. Just the ending sucks ass imo

I haven't seen a single one since Bride when it came out.

Should I continue?

>>84459199
yeah, they are not groundbreaking but very entertaining

>>84459049
It's not a direct sequel. There's a fairly large gap between Seed of Chucky and Curse of Chucky and the story doesn't follow on. The Tiffany stuff is very minor and the Andy stuff even more so. You could watch it without having seen the most or even all of the movies.

>mfw the local rental place had the horror section directly adjacent to the checkout counter

>>84461064
I don't think you know what a direct squeal is. This is a sequel in a timeline in which the events of Child's play 1, Child's Play 2, Child's Play 3, Bride of Chucky, and Seed of Chucky have taken place, featuring characters and information from the previous films as story and background elements. Curse of Chucky is a direct sequel to Seed of Chucky just like Bride was a direct sequel to Child's Play 3.

>>84461408
Call it what you want. An indirect sequel, a standalone sequel, a soft reboot... etc. You don't need to watch Seed to understand Curse. All the essential information is given.

1,2,3 are Andy's trilogy. One flows into the next.

Bride and Seed are a duology both in story and tone.

Curse started a new "set" of Chucky sequels and Cult is the second of these.

ADE DUE DAMBALLA

>>84458725
>Spencer's chucky doll

Shit I dealt with that too I hated going into Spencer's as a kid cause of that damn doll

>>84461712
So? You don't need to see Friday the 13th part 6 to understand part 7, you don't need to see Batman before watching Batman Returns.

I can't call it a indirect sequel because it directly follows the continuity of the previous movies in the series

I can't call it a standalone sequel because it is clearly placed within the timeline of the franchise and features characters and plot details relative to the previous five films

I can't call it a soft reboot because it is the 6th entry in the direct timeline of Chucky's timeline post transformation and is rebooting nothing since the main character "Chucky" is the same character with the memories, experiences, and scars from his previous five excursions.
...ect

The reason you don't need to watch the previous entries in the franchise to understand and appreciate Curse it because the writer/director wanted to new fans to be able to watch a film from this 25+ year old franchise without having to do homework beforehand.

Curse is the writer of literally every Chucky film Don Mancini directly continuing his franchise with it's complete canon intact. In the world of Curse of Chucky the events of Seed definitely happened..

The type of sequel you're referring too would be like a Halloween:H20 which ignores the existence of films 3-6 in the franchise and rewrites its killers history.

>>84457450
Look I know you kids are really into forcing memes now but leave the poor robotposters over at /m/ out of it.

>>84462138
This pretty much nails it

>>84458725
iktf my man. Funny how after watching them now, I wish I just had the balls to watch a full movie as a kid I woulda realized how corny it really was.

>>84462138
Good grief, stop being so pedantic. I'm clearly not implying that Curse takes place outside of regular Chucky canon.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X69rXDeYoFU
Jump to 3:40 to hear Don Mancini say "We intended the movie to work as a standalone film. A sort of reintroduction to the character for new audiences."
At 4:18 he says "We don't need to know any of the specifics of his mythology to get anything out of the movie."
At 5:00 he says "I relished the opportunity to just kind of do a redo of Chucky."

Now looking at my original comment
>Curse wasn't a reboot, but it wasn't a direct sequel either. It's definitely for long-time Chucky fans, yet accessible for newcomers.
do you now understand what I'm saying?

It doesn't continue the plot of Seed of Chucky. Let's leave it at that, okay?

>>84465024
gotcha, you have that specific type of autism where a movie has to take place literately seconds after the events of the previous film for you to consider it a direct sequel.

It doesn't matter that the film takes place after the events of Seed of Chucky and Tiffany being transferred back into a body is a direct effect of Seed. There was a 9 year gap between the films and the writer decided to add so expositionary dialogue because newcomers to the series may not be familiar with a 25 year old movie so it cant be a direct sequel.

Its fine if you choose to not consider it a direct sequel which seems to be the case, but to tell people unfarmiliar with the source material for a fact that it isn't is just categorically untrue and implies that it follows the path of other horror reboots like H20 and ignores previous films from it canon.

If a film has the same lead character as previous films in the series and exists in the same canon it is a direct sequel by definition, but if you want to call definition of terms pedantic then by all means go ahead.

I've only seen 1 and 2, but I'm planning on watching the rest. should I avoid Bride and Seed?

>>84465582
Bride is a better comedy than it has an right to be, but if you dont want a Chucky comedy its safe to avoid.

Watch Seed if you really liked Bride and want some awful early 2000's nostalgia, I believe it opens with Chucky killing Brittney Spears if that gives you any indication of what type of movie this is. Otherwise you wont loose anything by ignoring it.

>>84465436
I mean... your definition of "standalone" doesn't seem to match up with Don Mancini's. So are you going to freak out if I use that term like he did?

Whatever. You're being pedantic and that's fine. The term doesn't matter to me.

>>84465843
Never once did I say that Curse of Chucky is not a standalone film, lots of horror sequels work as standalone films, heck that's pretty much what any long-running franchise has to do to maintain and grow a fan-base. You're just having a hard time figuring out the two aren't mutually exclusive and Curse of Chucky is a Standalone direct sequel to the Chid's play franchise.

It is a movie that can be seen and understood on its own, as well as a direct continuation of the events in previous franchise enteries.

>>84466088
>Never once did I say that Curse of Chucky is not a standalone film,
>>84462138
>I can't call it a standalone sequel because it is clearly placed within the timeline of the franchise and features characters and plot details relative to the previous five films

>>84466375
Its a standalone film and a direct sequel, read the words and understand context.

>>84466508
You're telling me to understand context? You wrote whole paragraphs explaining how the movie isn't a reboot when my first comment in this thread literally started with the words "Cursed wasn't a reboot".

This one looks really good. I thought Curse of Chucky was pretty good, but still missing something to make it purely enjoy it like the original Child's plays

>>84466649
Nope, I was explaining how it is a direct sequel to the events of Seed of Chucky and what the qualification for a direct sequel were.

>>84466732
And then, understanding how you defined "direct sequel" I said
>Call it what you want... a standalone sequel

You said
>I can't call it a standalone sequel

I said
>Jump to 3:40 to hear Don Mancini say "We intended the movie to work as a standalone film.

You said
>Never once did I say that Curse of Chucky is not a standalone film

And then
>Its a standalone film

I'm not even disagreeing with you. Don Mancini says it's a standalone film. That term works for me and apparently you've come around to using it too. Cool, we're done.
