Review of Seed of Chucky (2004) by Roddersj04 — 01 Jan 2011

I haven't seen any of the first 3 Chucky films, but fell in love with Bride Of Chucky, because of the introduction of Tiffany, played by the very beautiful Jennifer Tilly. This film, I was expecting it to be a great follow up to that great film.

Sadly, it wasn't. Glen's character is, well, I liked that he was simply on a quest to find his parents, and I liked how he tapped into his killer instinct at the end of the film to kill his father, and how he didn't want to kill like his parents, but, here come the bad points.

His British accent. I know that he got it from travelling with that **** at the beginning, but it just doesn't seem right. Him knowing Japanese, and doing the kung fu against Chucky, where did that come from? Maybe he learnt it from TV while in his cage, but come on! The act at the start was just crap.

And the pissing! For gods sake, WTF? and how did the opening scene in that house fit in to the story? The film itself, well let me break it down. Chucky was brilliant as usual, especially the Britney Spears scene "Oops, I did it again" and the Shining parody scene.

It was great to see his killer instinct unchanged, and him trying to pass it on to his son, but the masturbation scene just felt wrong. I didn't dislike him instantly trying to kill Tiffany, but I loved their character dynamic.

Shame it looks like the duo won't be together again. Tiffany, brilliant like in the last film, I especially liked how she was trying to quit killing. I liked that she got to be human with her children, and that her killer instinct hadn't left.

Jennifer Tilly, her complete change of character after she'd given birth felt a little tacked on and I wasn't liking Redman. He was a pretty useless character. Why bother including him? And the chauffer, he needed to be included more to have felt sympathy for me from his death.

Hannah Spearrit's character, I felt a little sympathy for her, she needed a little more screen time. For all of this, I felt a little dissapointed by this film. It was bad, but it wasn't horrible.
