There are some films that get made where you just collectively slap your heads as a society in trying to figure out why. Seed Of Chucky is such a film. I don’t know folks, I just don’t get it. I thought the first one was kinda novel (since my favorite Twilight Zone of all time is the one where the little girl’s doll comes to life and kills her abusive dad… I still can’t watch that one alone at night), but I thought all the rest since then have pretty much reeked of yuck. And correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t recall them doing so hot at the box office either. So what’s the motivation here? Am I just on some other planet? Are there a ton of you out there actually planning on plopping down your $10+ bucks to see this?
Coming Soon (Great Site) provides us with this new poster of the upcoming film, and this little synopsis:
The fifth film in the popular Chucky series introduces Glen (voiced by Billy Boyd – AKA Pippin from Lord Of the Rings), the orphan doll offspring of the irrepressible devilish-doll-come-to-life Chucky (voiced by Brad Dourif) and his equally twisted bride Tiffany (voiced by Jennifer Tilly). When production starts on a movie detailing the urban legend of his parents’ lethal exploits, Glen heads for Hollywood where he brings his bloodthirsty parents back from the dead. But can Chucky and Tiffany convince Glen to take up the gory family business?
Ummm… ok… after reading that I’m still not any closer to understanding why this movie exists. But oh well, who knows, maybe it’ll surprise me. To read the whole Coming Soon post and see a larger version of the poster, go here.
