Il figlio di Chucky

When I watched the last sequel in the Chucky saga, I was a little disappointed at the way they had treated my favorite serial slasher. I just didn't catch the crappy comedy. I watched it again and now I find it a decent sequel to the series but out of all 5 films, this would have to be my least fav, but never the less, it could have been more worse.

Chucky and Tiffany are put onto a TV show and then their son/daughter, Glen/Glenda finds them and uses an emblem to set them back to their evil ways. They then go to Jeniffer Tilly's house and start causing havoc as they are ready to transfer their souls into a another two sets of human beings. Glen/Glenda just wants to be a family but his/her parents seem to be out of control.

That is the part I loved about the film the most: the family issues, a son/daughter just wants to be a family and Chucky just continuous his homicidal rampage and Tiffany tries her best. A lot of people look at "Seed of Chucky" and just say it's a crappy piece of crap that should have never been made. A lot more people should be looking at the family morals and that's the only things (besides the awesome kills) that this film has to offer. I just think it was done well.

I also thought John Waters was good as well as Brad Dourif as the demonic doll again.

Even if I didn't like the comedy and it could have been so much better, I still think it's OK.

The Child's play series, Chucky to most of us started back in the late 1980's with a film of the same name. Child's Play hit the cinema screens across the world, What followed was a small uprising of people wanting to get the film banned, Children even been scared of there Barbie dolls?.

The film was the tale of a serial killer been forced into the body of a "Good Guy" doll,With a little help from Voodoo mixed in,After the success,But also the banning of that film it spawned two more films.

All was quiet on the western front when in 2000 we was treated with the fourth film, The Bride OfChucky.

Chucky been with a bride now they went on a killing spree, Yet again. All was thought lost in that film when they died at the end but we was given with that film a glimmer of hope for we was treated with the vision of a baby.Two doll's having a baby?

Here we are in late 2004 and the fifth film in the Horror/Comedy films is here, The Seed of Chucky is based around that very baby and his quest to find his mum and dad "Tiffany And Chucky".

With them been back in there original doll form they are been used as Hollywood stars for a series of horror films based on there "Urban Ledgends" of chaos as none of the previous killings had been solved. With a little help from Mr Voodoo, "Sh**Face" brings his mum and dad back into shape and Chucky Been Chucky now wants to teach his son the tricks of the trade.

What i like from the off in the Child's play films is the fact that it's the same person doing the voicing for good old Chuckster. Brad Doughry is behind the voice as he was in previous films.

With this a latest incarnation it's still keeping the funny factor, Scenes of Chucky ramming Britney Spears off the road brings a smile to my face for some reason, Seeing also a doll giving Bishop a good stroke has got to seem funny, Even in writing.Saying the film is still a sick and twisted little picture but yet again, The series has been revived in a good way.

Shitface, the son of Chucky and Tiffany, travels from England to Hollywood to meet his parents he had seen on TV. He accidentally resurrects them, and they try to transfer their souls to the body of Jennifer Tilly and Redman.

"Seed of Chucky" is a funny and very gore black humor comedy. There are many bloody jokes, and the movie presents a witty Jennifer Tilly, mocking with her weight, her shape, her voice and her behavior. I found this actress very brave in performing such a outrageous role, and I liked her a lot. John Waters is also hilarious in the role of a snoopy paparazzi. The music score is also great. My vote is six.

Title (Brazil): "O Filho de Chucky" ("The Son of Chucky")

Having been on a roll watching and reviewing gradually over time films belonging in horror film franchises, the Chucky/'Child's Play' films were the most recent to get this treatment. Part of my want to see them was my fascination to see if killer doll Chucky deserved his horror icon status. My conclusion seeing the films is that he does deserve it and a hugely entertaining and creepy character, that is quite a bit better than the films.

The Chucky/'Child's Play' films are a mixed bag. The best of the series is still the first film followed quite closely by 'Bride of Chucky', enjoyed both immensely while acknowledging their imperfections. Did sort of like the second too while being mixed to indifferent on the third (which gets a lot of dislike but for me it wasn't that bad). 'Seed of Chucky' is a step or two down from 'Bride of Chucky' and my feelings are the same as those for 'Child's Play 3', thinking it was not that bad but didn't do an awful lot for me at the end of the day. Whether it's the worst of the series is debatable, have heard from friends that the films that followed are worse, having said that it is not hard to see why it is one of the lower rated films of the series here and why many dislike it. This is disappointing as this did have potential to be one of the best Chucky/'Child's Play' films if it was as good as 'Bride of Chucky', considering that Chucky and Tiffany return and there is again emphasis on comedy.

Lets start with the good things. 'Seed of Chucky' looks great. It is filmed with a lot of atmosphere, has a suitably eerie look and the special effects are nothing short of terrific. The music score is one of the best of the series, its hauntingly ominous sounds not easy to forget in the long run. Tiffany steals the show here pretty much, being both amusing and creepy, and Jennifer Tilly does have a ball playing her, wisely not taking it too seriously. Brad Dourif is still deliciously malevolent as Chucky, though he should have had more to do.

While not near as fresh or witty as the humour in 'Bride of Chucky', there are some darkly funny parts and lines. The parodies and in-jokes need familiarity in order to get them, being familiar with a vast majority of them this was not a problem for me, but some do work. The memorable being a quite hilarious cameo from John Waters. Another scene stealer was Glen/Glenda, hilariously played by Billy Boyd.

'Seed of Chucky' however has a number of serious problems. The story is both daft and lacking oomph, also suffering from trying to cram in too much and struggling to balance it all and properly exploring it. Meaning it all feels muddled and over-stuffed with the Glen/Glenda being particularly over-complicated. With the funny moments, there are moments but it's not consistent. Other parts feel very limp and stale.

Found that the supporting cast on the most part were very bland, with one of the biggest faults of the film being the utterly wretched performance from Redman, out of place and annoying. 'Seed of Chucky' is severely lacking in the horror elements, where there is pretty much no atmosphere or mood. It is more reliant on gore rather than suspense or creepiness, and it is a big problem as it is overused to the point of abuse and too much of it is rather gratuitously tasteless. The kills are neither creative, palm-sweating or nail-biting, instead being predictable, sometimes silly and the overuse and gratuity of the gore hampers them. Don Mancini's directorial ineperience is all over.

Altogether, a lot of serious faults here but there are things that prevent it from being a complete waste of time. 5/10 Bethany Cox

'SEED OF CHUCKY' is perverse, absurd, disgusting and fun as all hell.

Anyone who goes to see a CHUCKY movie expecting a horror film is not living in reality. CHUCKY has become a comedy series of the blackest sort and that's certainly not a bad thing. While 'SEED' is no 'BRIDE', it still manages to deliver the goods and there are about a million in-jokes to test your movie IQ. Go to see this in the proper frame of mind and you won't likely be disappointed.

---My only serious criticism would be that this whole movie stars spoofing themselves (John Malkovich, Neal Patrick Harris, etc., and now Jennifer Tilly and Redman) has been played out. It's great to see that they have a sense of humor about themselves but it's getting old.---
