User Reviews

Worst in the series.

Curse of Chucky: the name says it all. We had a great first Child's play, a marvelous sequel, a somewhat of a dark comedy in the 3 part, a lot more comedy in the next 2 and then we have this one.

I got to say, Curse of Chucky starts great, like the first one actually, the 80's style! So overall, yeah, the intro is kickass, reminds you of the golden years, puts you in that lovely scary old theme you were used to back in the times. And after the intro, it all falls down the hill: you are "hit" with close-ups every 30 seconds or so, some very weak misleads wannabe for the "fun" of it, terrible actors, terrible doll behavior, terrible sounds and plot.

As I said, 3 minutes after the film started I was on the edge of my seat, "man oh man, finally, another great Chucky!". Boy was I wrong! This is a terrible, terrible movie, looks more like one of them sequels when everybody involved in the making of the first ones abandon the project, a complete new staff comes and make a direct-on-DVD release. I mean, we have Mancini here, we have Dourif, how could it end up SO wrong??

Anyway, sadly, you Child's play fans out there, will want to watch it, no matter what you read. I know, I would have done the same. So let me warn you folks, this will not be what you expected, it will be indeed, a complete letdown. So lower your expectations as much as possible, grab some popcorn and turn your brain off. Don't relive the good moments before pressing Play, don't remember what this series was all about, cause this one, is just bad.

Cheers!
