    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Under pressure from Universal, screenwriter Don Mancini was asked to begin writing the third film even before the second film was released. Hence, this picture was released only nine months after Child's Play 2 (1990). Mancini has called it his least favorite because he felt he was out of ideas so soon after the second installment.
    • Goofs
      (at around 38 mins) Chucky cuts Andy's Achilles tendon from under his bed. Throughout the rest of the movie, Andy should have a limp from such a severe injury. However, he clearly has no trouble walking or running in subsequent scenes, nor does he show any signs of injury.
    • Quotes

      Chucky: Don't fuck with the Chuck.

    • Alternate versions
      Several scenes cut from original version appear in the USA Network's version:
      • Additional dialogue between president of Play Pal toys and his assistant at the very beginning.
      • Andy talking with Tyler on the bus taking them to Kent military school;
      • a scene with Andy and Tyler talking as Andy is going to his room. Tyler offers to play pool with him but Andy declines;
      • Andy and Whitehurst talking outside as they stand at attention just before Shelton steps into the picture;
      • Tyler telling Andy how bad his hair looks after they get haircuts.
      • Shelton catches Andy & Desilva kissing in woods during wargames.
      • After death of garbage man, scene in which Andy is sitting in class, contemplatively, teacher snaps him back into it.

      Featured in Empire of the Censors (1995)

    A word to all you haters of this movie
    Okay, so placing it eight years in the future and dumping Alex Vincent for attractive Justin Whalin may have turned people off. I kinda wondered how Chucky managed to wrap and address the package when he was in the box, but whatever. This is my favourite of the series and also the best comic moments until Bride of Chucky came along. I did hear that Alex had no desire to appear in this movie which is probably why it was set up the way it was. It is an interesting take on the series, but if anyone else noticed the blood dripping into a vat of boiling plastic, wouldn't there be more dolls affected?? My rating is 1) Child's Play 3 2) Bride of Chucky 3) Child's Play 4) Child's Play 2 5) Seed of Chucky. BTW Curse of Chucky is not worth watching.
