SEED OF CHUCKY (2004)
I might be one of the few
people thinking this, but to me this series just took about as massive of a
dive as it possibly could have after part III. SEED OF CHUCKY in my eyes was
such a final straw that no one has given a crap about this series outside of
going back to the nostalgic first 3 or 4 installments. Perhaps CURSE OF CHUCKY
will help. Anyway in this one suddenly both Chucky and his bride Tiffany are
back in one piece and looking better than ever and their bodies are being used
for additional movies within the movie about Chucky. Jennifer Tilly plays both
herself and Tiffany and does a eerily great job at it. My only issue with this
is that it feels odd because she looks exactly like Tiffany did before she
became a doll (you know because it’s freakin her playing herself..oh never mind).
On a side note they did
have a child in BRIDE OF CHUCKY so naturally he’s in another country and has an
accent and doesn’t know if it is a boy or a girl. I should note that other than
a face melting scene, Tiffany disemboweling some dude and Chucky just freaking
out on santa, this isn’t much of a horror flick but does qualify. It’s an intelligible
insult to the franchise despite all the cameos, we can’t even get a decent
soundtrack? SO many issues with this even the supposed humor is mostly lost.
1.
Britney Spears didn’t even want to be in this movie. A look alike is killed by
Chucky but her publicist actually spent money to make sure people knew she wasn’t
actually involved.
2. Jennifer Tilly is apparently possessed or something like
right now. She played herself in the movie which does have a cool ending, but
she might want to see a doctor if they are trying to tell us that part of the
film was set in real life with the real Jennifer Tilly.
3. I know this is
nitpicky and I love a good comedy horror flick (just read my reviews) but this
one is so off base with where it could have gone. Comedy horror should try
being funny right?
4. Design, whoever came up with the stupid design for Chucky’s
kid should be fired. He would have fit 10 times better in the PUPPET MASTER or
DEMONIC TOYS series, that is how off the look they used was.
5. This is the GOOD DAY TO DIE HARD of the series. Sorry I know people liked
this, but it was a freakin disaster. If even Jason Flemyng (X-MEN FIRST CLASS,
HANNA, CLASH OF THE TITANS) can’t save your movie, why bother?
For Jennifer Tilly’s
effort alone I have to give this a 2 out of 7, but it really doesn’t even
deserve that. Rating Definition : 2 out of 7 – EHH, this movie was not
good and you know it. You kind of wish you hadn’t paid to see it or allowed
that chick in the deli to talk you into taking her. Once the bad taste in your
mouth is washed out, you won’t think this is the worst movie ever, but you will
think it was close.
