Monster Crap: Seed Of Chucky (2004)

Monster Crap Inductee: Seed Of Chucky
Chucky Gets Unfunny

2004

Last time we talked about the Child’s Play/Chucky franchise, Chucky was trying to become a black kid in a youth military academy. A lot has changed since that film and this one. First was another movie in between that film and this one that was an actual hit and probably will not be inducted at all.


That film was a bit different where Chucky was able to get into the hands of Charles Lee Ray’s ex-girlfriend who was still in love with him named Tiffany (played by Jennifer Tilly). After some huge issues, Chucky ultimately kills her and just to be extra dickish, transferred her soul into a female doll. Ultimately, they get back together, cause mayhem, and then have issues with each other that ultimately ends in them getting killed. But at the end of that film Tiffany ends up giving birth and we are left at a cliffhanger there. That film was directed by Ronny Yu, who would not return to this sequel because he was given a better horror film to do at the same time.

Yeah, I’d Take That Film Over Seed Of Chucky Any Time

So Don Mancini (who again wrote and mostly owned the characters) decided that he would be the one who directed this film. Second would be this film would not be done by Universal Pictures, which had done Child’s Play 2, 3, and Bride Of Chucky since when the script for this film was turned in, Universal declined saying the film was “too gay”. Did I mention that this was 2004 (where that behavior was not totally frowned upon) yet Don Mancini was himself gay? Oh yeah, Don intentionally made this one to deal with LGBT issues like gender dysphoria so what the fuck was Universal expecting?

Anyway, Focus Features and their Rogue Pictures subsidiary (which ironically would get bought out by Universal Pictures 2 years after this film’s release so…..whole bunch of nothing happened) took this film instead since a film that I freaking hate in Cabin Fever turned out to be a hit for them.

Oh, I Am Going To Be Mad The Day That I Have To Talk About This Shit And Eli Roth’s Terrible Writing That Some Horror People Seem To Think Is Genius Because He Is A Horror Fan Or Whatever….

For this film, there are some people who were in previous Monster Crap inductions. First, I don’t even have to tell you that Chucky is once again voiced by Brad Douriff, who was in Child’s Play 3.

Although I Prefer His Role In Another Monster Crap Induction As The Rodent Exterminator Tucker Cleveland In Graveyard Shift.

This movie also has Jason Flemyng, who you may remember from Spice World and that terrible Clash Of The Titans remake


As far as the cast goes who weren’t in previous Monster Crap films, we have Redman who you may know is a famous rapper and is a member of the Wutang Clan, probably next to NWA and Run DMC the one of the most famous rap groups of all time.

Wutang Clan Aint Nothing To Mess With

We also have Billy Boyd who is going to voice the kid doll that the two killer dolls conceived.

You Might Know Him As Pippin In The “Lord Of The Rings” Films

And we have more, but of course I will mention them when we get to them. Let’s start the induction now.

We begin with opening credits and a 3D demonstration on how a baby is conceived.

Seriously, That Is Sperm Which Is About To Go Into An Egg

And while this is going on, we get flashes of Chucky’s face just in case you forgot whose sperm this was. We then go to a child opening a present (from the doll’s point of view) and she is not happy with the doll she was given.

Oh And Best Of All, They Don’t Even Know Who Gave Them This Doll

She throws the doll into the toy chest and then at night, the doll escapes from the toy chest. The doll takes a knife and goes all the way upstairs before being seen by dad who assumes his daughter left the doll out. Dad scolds his daughter for leaving her toys out (which she claims she didn’t), but all that is meaningless as the doll stabs and kills Dad.


The doll then goes back up the stairs and goes all Psycho on Mum in the shower.

Or Would If He Had Not Dropped The Knife And In A Panic, She Slipped And Fell Outside Of The Tub, Causing Her Head To Smash On The Ground So She Is Dead. Would Have Been Nice If I Could Avoid The Black Box….But No Such Luck

The doll sees himself in the mirror, runs, and goes into the little girl’s room, hoping to kill her. He unveils the covers to find that it is a doll. The girl comes out and scolds it for killing her parents and it is now pissing it’s pants.


Of course, this is all a dream and the doll wakes up with a shitty owner who keeps it in a cage,


This asshole of an owner is named Psychs and he cons people into thinking he is a ventriloquist with the doll as his puppet even though the doll is very much alive at the International Ventriloquists Competition In Glastonberry, England.. And guess what he calls his doll?

Yep….His Name Is Shitface

The whole act is basically Psychs being an asshole and disparaging Shitface (saying he isn’t anatomically correct and saying it tried to kill him, which Shitface says was supposed to be a hug). We then get a monologue from Shitface about his origins (which the audience cant hear because it is all in his head), he talks about how he doesn’t know much about himself except that he is a freak and that he is Made In Japan.


He wonders who his mom and dad were really like and then we go to Santa Claus at a graveyard.

Oh It’s Jason Flemyng

He is telling his girlfriend on the phone that he has a stack of goodies for her as Santa this year. He then gets the bad news that she is breaking up with him. Something cuts a hole in his bag and presents come out of it. He sees this and then notices the Chucky doll at a gravesite.


He looks at this deformed doll and this causes a distraction for Tiffany to strangle this guy with a slinky and Chucky to stab this fake Santa. All the while scolding him for being a fake Santa.


However, Chucky and Tiffany start saying the same thing before it turns out this was all part of a movie and the animatronic puppets are not working again. Heck, even the fake Santa is just the actor Jason Flemyng playing himself. Of course this is all going on as we are seeing an Action Hollywood show talk about this movie being called Chucky Goes Psycho.


After a nut shot gag with the puppeteer, we see that this movie is starring Jennifer Tilly herself who is hiding out to cheat on her diet with a candy bar.


She gets found so she has to hide the candy bar and they talk about the diet she is keeping. Jennifer is being interviewed with the Chucky puppet and in case you did not know this, none of this movie is shot in California and is instead shot in Romania, which Jennifer had fun with during a bit of a fake video diary for the Tonight Show. It is definitely something to watch if you happen to have the DVD of this film.

We find out through a conversation with her assistant Joan…

Played By Hannah Spearrit  From S Club 7

That Jennifer Tilly has a huge problem with Julia Robert and says that she should have played Erin Brockovich (and wouldn’t need the pushup bra). She also claims that Julia Roberts only got that role by sleeping with the director. Remember people that this is a fictionalized version of Jennifer Tilly played by Jennifer Tilly so do not take any of this shit said as gossip about what Jennifer Tilly really thinks about Julia Roberts.

Jennifer wonders how come she doesn’t get any of the serious roles with the Chucky puppet saying “nice tits” and Jennifer thanking it for the compliment. She’s upset that she has no fan mail, paparazzi, or Oscars. Yeah, you don’t want paparazzi….they killed Diana Spencer after all. Joan then finds out that rapper turned director Redman is searching for a woman to play the virginal Mary in his new bible film. Jennifer Tilly thinks she would be perfect for the part. The Access Hollywood bit comes back as Shitface finds out that both the Tiffany and Chucky dolls have Made In Japan on their wrist like him.


Psychs shows up and is pissed that Shitface wasn’t more scary so he is about to put a rat in his cage. Of course Shitface is nice to the rat which pisses off Psychs. Psychs threatens to burn Shitface, but the rat bites Psychs and Shitface uses this moment to get away and escape via a garbage truck.


Shitface then sneaks on a plane and gets to Los Angeles and sneaks onto the set of Chucky Goes Psycho. Back in a studio, we see Jennifer Tilly auditioning for the role of Mary with rapper turned director Redman.

I Have To Note That Redman Was The Third Choice To Play This Director Character With First Choice Quentin Tarantino And Second Choice Joe Pantaliano Passing This Part. This Role Was Written With Tarantino In Mind So People Wanting To Be In This Redman Movie Makes More Sense In That Context.

After a few minutes, Redman thinks Jennifer is good for the part, but he may have to go with his first choice which is Julia Roberts. Jennifer then comes on to the director and basically reveals she will do anything for this part, which Redman is all in on. Shitface sneaks into the puppet room and finds Chucky and Tiffany, who are still just puppets. He then decides to awaken them since he has a pendant and the awakening spell is on the back of it.


And the spell works like a charm so Chucky and Tiffany are now alive.


They are weirded out by Shitface and wonder whose ugly parents gave birth to him before he reveals the Made In Japan mark on his wrist which makes them realize they are his parents.

You Are The Parents….

Tiffany gives Shitface a hug while Chucky faints. The two parents are then made aware that they are in Hollywood. A puppeteer comes in and Shitface must hide while Chucky and Tiffany return to looking like plain puppets. He starts to unscrew Tiffany with Shitface wondering if his mom is ill, with Chucky retorting that the courts thought so. The puppeteer unscrews Tiffany and instead of wires and machinery, he finds live flesh,


This shocks the puppeteer and then Tiffany turns her head towards him and says heads up. This signifies for Chucky to wrap a piano wire cord around the puppeteer’s neck and the two puppeteers pull, decapitation the puppeteer.

DECAPITATION!!!!!!

Shitface is stunned to learn that his two parents are killers as they enjoy the blood on their face from the puppeteer and kiss.


Shitface pisses his pants again which stops the love making. They then debate whether Shitface is a boy or a girl. They check his privates and since there is no penis, Tiffany thinks she is right, but Chucky counters that maybe their kid is a late bloomer. Chucky names his son Glen while Tiffany names her daughter Glenda.

Why Yes…This Is A Ed Wood Movie Reference Since That Movie Also Talked About Gender Confusion.

Before they can get anymore into the new name, Jennifer Tilly comes in, trying to hide from people so she can eat her candy bar in piece. Tiffany is very happy to see Jennifer Tilly as she is an icon to Tiffany with “the voice like an angel”. Since Jennifer Tilly is playing herself and the voice of Tiffany so you can see why Tiffany would like Jennifer Tilly. Jennifer sees the decapitated body and head on the floor and thinking it is an effect, goes to the head and even kisses it.


Of course it doesn’t take long before Jennifer realizes that what she is holding in her hands and kissed is a real, genuine, bonafide decapitated head and she has the only reasonable reaction to realizing this

Scream Like A Banshee

Of course this cause all the media hounds and paparazzi to descend and want words from Jennifer Tilly including one Pete Peters, who is played by someone who you may be familiar with if you know cult films.

Why...Hello There, John Waters

Considered the Pope Of Trash or the Prince Of Puke, John Waters directed plenty of films that aren’t exactly films you would want to watch with your own family or more than once to be honest since he tended to find people who would do things that most actors wouldn’t do like in Pink Flamingo like finding Divine who would eat some legit dog crap.

And If You Think I’m Lying To You, Well Keep Thinking That Or Watch The Movie For Yourself Because There Is No Way In God’s Green Earth I Am Showing That. I Have Standards, You Know….

Meanwhile, Jennifer’s limo driver is trying to practice how he is going to tell her that he loves her


Of course the puppets sneak into the back of the limo while Jennifer decides to stay in front with the chauffeur, who she makes out with.

And They Make Out….Yeah, He Doesn’t Declare His Love For Her Here.

As Stan drives Jennifer around, the puppets drink the champagne and then hand Jennifer an empty bottle, which she thinks Stan drank. Meanwhile, Glen (or Glenda) wonders if they are a pair of ninja assassins or hitmen for the Yakuza since they are Made In Japan and are very good at killing people. Chucky laughs this off and tells him (or her) that they are just two killers from Jersey. Tiffany has everything planned out as she will transfer her soul into Jennifer Tilly and Chucky will transfer his soul into Redman, which Chucky is okay with.

Chucky Is Of Course Down With That Since He Has Tried To Become A Black Person Before In Child’s Play 3.

The plan is also to transfer Glen’s (or Glenda’s) soul into their offspring which once again, they debate whether he is a male or female….with Jennifer Tilly being a surrogate before they actually trade souls with her because Tiffany doesn’t want to get pregnant again as she mentions her mom saying that getting pregnant once is a blessing, but getting pregnant twice is a curse. Chucky retorts that the saying would explain Tiffany’s sister.

Who Will Be Played By Lady Not Appearing In This Film

Jennifer calls Joan and tells her to get a bottle of champagne for her before tonight as she has a date with Redman, which makes for a sad Stan.


I know what will cheer Stan up? Some Sweet Chin Music by the one and only Heartbreak Kid.


All of this makes Tiffany find out that Jennifer Tilly is a complete slut. After they all get home, Chucky, Tiffany, and Glen (or Glenda) hide out in the attic where they formulate their plan with Tiffany and Glen (or Glenda) watching over Jennifer and Redman while Chucky is told to jack off some semen into a cup. As they go to bed, Glen (or Glenda) asks his (or her) parents why they kill people and after they can’t really give him an answer, he says that violence is bad as that is what he hears on TV. Chucky explains that it isn’t violence that is bad, it is violins that are bad as that music is going to be the death of everyone.

Oh Great….Now We Will Have Violin Control Debates. Thanks For Nothing, Chucky!

He wants them to do no more killing. Tiffany is okay with this while Chucky isn’t, but ultimately accepts the terms so they can stay a happy family.

NOT!!!!!

Joan has issues with Jennifer doing this to get a role in Redman’s film and Joan says Jennifer will be in hell. Jennifer says that true hell would be on Celebrity Fear Factor and eating worms with Anna Nicole Smith. Two things that should be mentioned with this joke. One is that Anna Nicole Smith was still alive when this joke was made so it was not yet in poor taste and two…

I Think A Lot More People’s Hell Would Be Being Strapped To A Chair And Having To Listen To Joe Rogan’s Opinions On COVID-19 As Well As Ivermectin. Oh Yeah, I Fucking Went There.

Jennifer then fires Joan since she looks so down on what the celebrity is doing here.

Best Of Luck In Your Future Endeavors

Redman arrives in his hummer as Chucky is given magazines to help with his masturbation as well as Tiffany flashing him before helping Glen (or Glenda) with making sure they don’t have sex before they switch bodies.

Again, The Ugly Black Box Makes Its Return

Chucky then looks at magazines and guess what he ultimately decides to masturbate to.

A Zombie Girl In Fangoria

Meanwhile as Joan is leaving after getting fired, Pete Peters sneaks onto the property with his camera, hoping to get some exclusive pictures.


Inside, Tiffany spikes the wine with some sleeping pills.


Jennifer and Redman start talking about things and he talks about how he loved her in the movie Bound with Gina Gershon.

It Might Surprise Some People, But I Have Never Seen This Film.

The two start making out which Pete loves as he is taking pictures outside. He also sees a shadow of Chucky jerking off in the attic and he has this line.

Pete: Oh Sweet Jesus, God Bless The Little People

Jennifer hesitates for a bit wondering what people will say and Redman says that Mel Gibson isn’t the only person God has been talking to in Hollywood and he says God personally told him that Jennifer was his virgin. Redman unzips his pants and has Jennifer go down on him. Of course, Tiffany decides just know to knock Redman out with a trophy.


Jennifer gets up and she sees Tiffany, which obviously freaks her out.


Tiffany is disgusted by Jennifer, but still wants an autograph. Jennifer screams and runs away, but runs into Chucky with a sample of his jizz wondering what he does with it.


Jennifer runs some more before tripping over her high heels. Tiffany tells her that while she may be freaked out now, tomorrow this will all feel like a bad dream. Tiffany then asks if she wants to do this the easy way (drink the drugged alcohol) or the hard way (get hit with the trophy). She chooses the hard way by trying to run and gets hit by the trophy as it is thrown at her.


Chucky and Tiffany drag both Redman and Jennifer to the bedroom where they prop them up and Tiffany then artificially inseminates Jennifer with Chucky’s semen.

Yes, That Is A Line I Just Said

Chucky also sees Pete leave and as Tiffany is doing all the work, Chucky gets Glen (or Glenda) up and has him (or her) go with Chucky to deal with that nosy paparazzi. They take Redman’s hummer and on the road, they get cut off by a car driven by Britney Spears, who flips them off after Chucky honks the horn.

Or A Pretty Good Britney Spears Lookalike. 

Chucky gets pissed and drives her off the road into an explosion while saying “Oops….I did it again.”

This Whole Scene Was While In All The Trailers For This Film, They Had To Specifically Say “Britney Spears Does Not Appear In This Movie” Because Britney’s Management Team Were Rather Insistent That She Not Be Linked To This Film.

Pete starts developing the photos and the Chucky doll appears.


Pete then sees that under special light, he sees that the midget shadow he shot was actually Chucky’s. Glen (or Glenda) actually tries to save Pete from Chucky’s murdering ways, but accidentally kills Pete himself by pushing Pete into a shelf and somehow the container filled with acid falls on Pete’s head, melting a good chunk of his face.


Although Glen (or Glenda) never meant to kill Pete, Chucky thinks he does and is very impressed with what his son did. Even getting a selfie with the two and Pete’s body.


Back at Jennifer’s house the next day, Jennifer wakes up and has a conversation with Redman about what happened. Meanwhile, Tiffany is reading a book to try and stop herself from being an addict to killing people. She checks off the first step, skips the next few steps and then goes to step 9, which is to try to make amends to people to whom you have harmed. With this, Tiffany makes a phone call to the wife of one of the people she killed. She apologizes for killing her husband and as you would honestly expect, the wife isn’t happy and hangs up.


Redman leaves as Tiffany goes into Stan’s limo. Stan tries again to profess his love to Jennifer, but Jennifer experiences some morning sickness and throws up in her purse. Once again, day turns to night and Jennifer invites Redman over to dinner. She tells Redman she is pregnant and while at first Redman congratulates her, he immediately tells her it can’t be his for you see, Redman had a vasectomy years ago immediately after he got famous. Well, Redman, normally you can’t get someone pregnant after having a vasectomy, there is still a 1% chance you still can.

Anyway, Jennifer is insistent that the child is his as she hasn’t slept with anyone else in over a year (despite her act of coming on to people). Redman says no and then tells Jennifer that he has to pass on her being the virgin Mary due to this pregnancy as he doesn’t want his Mary actually pregnant because to him, you can’t be hot and pregnant.

That’s Shitty Hollywood Executives For You And Once Again, I Have To Add That This Role Was Written Specifically For Quentin Tarantino In Mind, But He Passed.

That really pisses off Tiffany who hear all of that and she calls an addiction hotline saying she is about to have a relapse.


Honestly, this phone call is kind of funny since the guy on the other end of the phone thinks she is talking about drugs or alcohol when she is really talking about killing. At first, he wants her to check into to a rehab center, but because she is a doll, that is out of the question although she words it as she would really freak everyone out. The person then tells her that it is okay to every once in a while have a little slip and he had one too and it was rather messy, but if you admit it is a slip and then try to be better, it is okay as Rome wasn’t built in a day. Jennifer then takes a phone call as Redman is eating and after Jennifer leaves the room in a few minutes, Tiffany disembowels Redman from under the table.


Jennifer thinks Redman should leave as Redman falls over dead and Glen (or Glenda) obviously has seen Tiffany do this murder. She says it is a little slip and with the other murder with Chucky, Glen (or Glenda) starts having the eye twitch.


The next day, Chucky and Tiffany are in a small makeshift bed watching TV and a joke about Martha Stewart’s real life insider trading trial with Tiffany saying they are executing Martha Stewart this morning.

She Only Spent 6 Months In Prison, 5 Months On House Arrest, And 2 Years On Probation

Chucky doesn’t like the 9 months to wait for Jennifer to give birth, but Tiffany explains that it is a voodoo pregnancy so the time tables for everything is extremely accelerated.

Like Having That Huge Ass Baby Bump On The Second Day

Jennifer is extremely freaked out about this and calls Joan, who she just fired so she can rehire her and ask for her to come over. Of course, Tiffany also gets on the phone and the caller confusion since both Jennifer and Tiffany have the same voice occurs. Chucky then attacks Jennifer and ties her up. He is about to grope Jennifer before Tiffany comes in the room to stop this sexual assault. Chucky gags Jennifer on Tiffany’s orders and accidentally drops the photo of Chucky and Glen (or Glenda) killing Pete. Tiffany is righteously upset about this and during the argument, Glen (or Glenda) comes in to say how they are tearing him apart.

Considering This Movie Came Out A Year After The Room Had It’s Original Hollywood Premiere, You Have To Wonder If The Someone On Set Actually Was At The Room’s Hollywood Premiere.

Glen (or Glenda) wonders if what he wants matters and when asked, he says he doesn’t know what he wants as sometimes he feels like a boy and sometimes he feels like a girl. He wonders if he can be both which Tiffany is kind of okay with, but Chucky isn’t really okay with it. Glen (or Glenda) definitely knows he (or she) doesn’t want to be a killer. Chucky is definitely against this and in his anger, accidentally causes the closet to open, which reveals the body of Redman.


As Jennifer screams, Chucky is smiling at this as it definitely means Tiffany did some killing, which she explains was a slip. Again….the eyes of Glen (or Glenda) is twitching. 


Tiffany also says Redman had it coming. Oh you know what I get to use for this line. Cell Block Tango….


Chucky wants to know about what body he takes and Tiffany makes a call to Stan the limo driver, asking for his aid. The next scene, Stan is already tied up.

Stan Is Useless

Stan tries to profess his love, but gets gagged before he gets really into it. The power goes out, but candles are lit. Joan comes in since she knows where the key is and she goes upstairs. The dolls hide and it seems the jig is up as Joan sees the two tied and gagged although Chucky is attempting a kill. But suddenly, a blonde in a wedding gown comes and uses a match and aerosol can to set Joan on fire, who dies as she falls down off the rail onto the floor.


Chucky is surprised and thinks Tiffany did this so he attempts to console the blonde killer doll and says he has a bunch of skeletons in his closet to….showing a bunch of dead bodies he hid in the closet


But the big reveal is this blonde killer doll isn’t Tiffany.

It’s Glenda And The One Without The Blonde Hair Is Glen. Glen Has A Split Personality Which Is Why I Said Glen (Or Glenda) As Things Weren’t Set Yet. Now That Things Are Set, The Killer Blonde Is Glenda And The Red Headed Normal One Is Glen.

Tiffany is shocked by all of this and has to slap Glenda back to being Glen. But they can’t talk too long as it is time for Jennifer to give birth. Jennifer gives birth to a baby boy.


And a baby girl.

Yep…..Twins

Now that the birthing is done, it is time for Chucky and Tiffany to inhabit their new bodies. And this…..is where things change and why I was upset with this film. You remember all those movies where Chucky is so desperate to get a new body? Well, fuck that as Chucky has decided that he wants to stay a doll.

Bull……SHIT!!!!!!!

Tiffany decides she is breaking up with Chucky as she still wants to be human and this pisses Chucky off as no one dumps him. Chucky is about to kill Jennifer, but Stan (who just got himself free) sacrifices himself to save her life.


Stan now decides it is time to profess his love for Jennifer. Unfortunately, he dies before he finishes.

Even In Death….Stan Is Useless

Tiffany grabs the knife and throws it at Chucky, which takes him down. The police come and see all the bodies. While, they don’t know who committed the murders, they know Jennifer has two kids and take her to the hospital.


Jennifer is separated from her kids because they believe she might be insane, even though they know she is not the killer. We also see that Tiffany and Glen have followed.


Of course, Jennifer is immediately tranquilized by Tiffany, who put a sedative in her IV. Tiffany locks the door and she begins the chant to switch bodies. However, a certain someone is trying to break in via an axe.


It is of course Chucky and I’m sure if you know another movie, you may guess that a certain line is going to be said.

But In Another Rare Chuckle Moment, Chucky Says, “I Can’t Think Of A Thing To Say. Fuck It.”

Chucky breaks in as Tiffany still tries to finish the chant, but she seemingly fails before getting an axe to the face.


Glen is sad as Chucky again says that no one leaves him. Tiffany falls over dead, but not before she tells Glen to be a good girl or boy and don’t make the same mistakes your mom and dad made. Glen says thank you to his mother in Japanese and sheds some tears. Glen then decides to use some karate and karate kick Chucky.


Jennifer wakes up and slides Glen the axe and he gives Chucky a chop.


Chucky thinks it is Glenda, but he says he is Glen and chops all his limbs off.


Chucky says “atta boy” before Glen chops his head off.

I’m Sure Glen Just Wanted To Make Sure Chucky Didn’t Do The Monty Python Black Knight.

Glen cries as Jennifer comforts him.

I Don’t Need To Say Anything

We are at a birthday party for both of Jennifer Tilly’s redhead children and her maid Fulvia complains about the scariness of one of the twins named Glenda, while Glen is an angel.


Jennifer doesn’t want to hear anything about her and we see that Jennifer kept the Tiffany doll.

I Think You May Be Getting Where This Is Going.

Fulvia talks about how she hates the doll and tells Jennifer that she is quitting. Jennifer is saddened by this, but accepts her resignation. Fulvia then sees Glenda looking through a window.


This moment causes Jennifer to bludgeon Fulvia to death with the Tiffany doll.

If You Haven’t Figured It Out Yet, Tiffany Was Able To Switch Bodies With Jennifer Tilly Before The Axe Came Down So The Actual Jennifer Tilly Is Dead.

As Glenda watches, Jennifer/Tiffany hides the body in the dress closet. They both give the signal to keep quiet about this as Jennifer/Tiffany cleans up her face of the blood. We then meet the boy Glen who is being narrated by the Glen doll.

Yep, Basically The Split Personalities Of The Doll Went Into Both Kids So No More Split Personality.

Glen gets a present from an unknown person as the card doesn’t say who it is from and when he opens it, it is Chucky’s arm.


Glen wets his pants and has an eye twitch before the arm grabs him.

And The Movie Ends.

So how did this movie do? Well, it did enough to double its budget (making $24.8 million over a $12 million budget), but unfortunately for it….Universal was actually expecting better so this is the last Chucky movie to be in theaters.

Except For That Time MGM Decided To Remake The Original Film And That Film Rightfully Flopped.

The franchise would still continue with Curse Of Chucky and Cult of Chucky as well as the Chucky TV series that is on USA Network right now, however those films and tv series completely have decided that the events of Bride Of Chucky and Seed of Chucky never happened, although they did bring back Jennifer Tilly as Tiffany (though she never turned into a doll). I’ve seen Curse and Cult (liked Curse Of Chucky, but not Cult of Chucky), but I have not seen the tv series yet (although I hear good things about it).

So what are my final thoughts on this film? Well, as Mr. Horse would say…

No, Sir. I Didn’t Like It.

There are definitely good reasons for this version of the story to be basically retconned as this film despite having a sequel bait, basically ends things. Tiffany is now Jennifer Tilly and both Glen and Glenda are human too. The film was actually more about references to cult films than actually trying to be a horror comedy, which Bride Of Chucky did a lot better with. Besides a few chuckles, the movie was mostly groan inducing and the worse thing you can be as a horror comedy is neither scary nor funny. I appreciate what the director tried to do here in highlighting this reality of gender confusion before this acceptance of gender confusion would be more normal, but much like Glen and Glenda as well as Nightmare On Elm Street 2: Freddy’s Revenge (a film that was intentionally be inspired by the whole idea of being in the closet about being gay), this film seems to have gone more into cramming this idea into your head and less about being a good movie. Don’t make bludgeoning people over the head with your message your main objective in making a film.

Bright Also Bludgeoned People Over The Head With Its Message And That’s Why That Film Is Hated

So…..next time…

Lucky Bastard….

What?

You get to do another 50s monster movie instead of some true holiday pain. I wonder if your shitty situation allowed someone to feel sorry for you and give you an easy film instead of one that would give you true suffering.

I didn’t even know sorry was in your vocabulary.

Oh it is because I love to say Not Sorry to people.

That makes a lot of sense.

Anyway….take your easy film and let me be on my way.

Thanks….
