Brad Dourif returns as Chucky in this upcoming series.

Brad Dourif returns! He's awesome...super sweet guy in real life! (Met him at DragonCon years ago.)

 

[Shantae]

Is this a series that's a continuation of the original film canon? I remember the last film had some weird like multiple Chucky thing going on.

 

[Elcid]

Fuck yeah I'm excited for this. This is literally the only horror character that scares me lol
Shantae - Yes.

Yep.

I love how Chucky never dies. He's outlasted every other 80s slasher at this point.

How was Mark Hammill Child's Play? Didnt that just come out?

 

[Tesseract]

that's not a bad vertical slice, something to aim for

Garbage. Just like every other modern reboot of an 80s horror classic.

soooo whats supposed to be the story here?

love the chucky doll design much more than the last film where he was digital.

ah - heres the log line:

"After a vintage Chucky doll turns up at a suburban yard sale, an idyllic American town is thrown into chaos as a series of horrifying murders begin to expose the town's hypocrisies and secrets."


sooooooo chucky just killing people and has nothing to do with andy or the proper lore anymore? unless chucky learns of a new way to get out of a good guy doll i guess....

just hoping its not another one of these teen drama horror shows

From what I've heard the creator Don Mancini says that this should be pretty true to the spirit of the movies. It also sounded like gore and profanity are definitely in play even though they are on basic cable tv and not premium like HBO.

P.S. The remake sucked, Curse and Cult were great and I'm glad this continues that story. Also Brad Dourif coming back instead of Hamil is awesome.

 

[The Wheel of Fortune]

The only enjoyable thing about the 2019 remake/reboot was Audrey Plaza.

That teaser showed absolutely nothing at all, so let's keep hoping this one turns out alright.

I think it's worth watching. It's got some good moments and Mark Hamill does a great job as always.

However, for me to say Chucky's design takes some getting used to would be an understatement.
