It’s not supposed to be like this. The sixth film in an arguably tired franchise should not be the best film in the series; especially when it bypasses theaters and goes straight to home media. So riddle me this, Batman: how is Curse of Chucky exactly that, the best film in the Child’s Play franchise?
Riddler, the answer to that is an easy one. It’s because Curse of Chucky returns the franchise to its horror roots; taking it away from the comedic bent of the last two films in the franchise, Bride of Chucky and Seed of Chucky. Curse of Chucky makes Chucky the doll scary again. What’s better is that the film makes Chucky creepy as hell with a flashback that reveals a little more about the serial killer Charles Lee Ray. It doesn’t tell us everything we want to or need to know but it tells us just enough.
Alright, Batfart, I’ll bite; what makes Curse of Chucky scary?
Oh Riddler, I love it when you villains come up with insulting variations of my name. Curse of Chucky is scary because writer/director Don Mancini keeps the action predominately in one setting: a house shared by a paraplegic young woman and her mother. After the mother receives the Good Guy doll erroneously in the mail she is killed off-screen and her death is ruled as a suicide. Of course, those of us who have followed the Child’s Play series know damn well that Chucky is behind it. When family members arrive at the home this allows Chucky to pick them off one by one ‘And Then There Were None’ style. Rat poison, electrocution, hatchet and knife are just a few of the methods of murder for the nefarious doll.
Wow, Batbutt, Curse of Chucky sounds like a winner. Is it true that Brad Dourif reprises his role as Charles Lee Ray and as the voice of Chucky; and that his daughter Fiona portrays Nica, the paraplegic?
Curse of Chucky is a winner, Riddler. Brad Dourif has never been more menacing as Charles/Chucky and he should be quite proud of daughter Fiona’s performance as Nica.
Okay, I’m in. Undo these Batcuffs so I can run to Walmart and pick up a copy of Curse of Chucky to watch on my new Riddler-vision 3000 Hi-Def TV.
Sorry, Riddler. You’re going to jail. The only thing you’re going to be doing is holding on to the soap and watching re-runs of Twilight.
Nooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TRIVIA
According to ‘Brad Dourif’, he had to wear a wig and massive amounts of make up to make him look like he did 25 years ago in the original Child’s Play movie. Lighting was also a huge factor.
‘Brad Dourif’ (the voice of Chucky) recorded all of his lines in less than a day.
In the post credit scene Andy is talking to his mother. He asks how ‘Mike’ is doing. This refers to the character Mike Norris, the detective who gunned down Charles Lee Ray in the toy store.

CHILD’S PLAY 3
CHILD’S PLAY 3-United Kingdom/United States-90 Mins. 1991
Justin Whalin as Andy Barclay in Child’s Play 3
Perrey Reeves as De Silva in Child’s Play 3
Jeremy Sylvers (L) as Tyler in Child’s Play 3
Directed by Jack Bender
Written by Don Mancini
Based on characters created by Don Mancini
According to screenwriter Don Mancini Child’s Play 3 was his least favorite film in the Chucky franchise because after Child’s Play 2 he was fresh out of ideas. However, he was also under pressure from Universal to write a sequel and thereby continue the franchise. I can understand why it’s his least favorite Chucky film; it stinks. However, I’m giving it a slightly higher rating than I gave Child’s Play 2 simply for what I thought was a moderately effective opening sequence/kill. After that it all goes downhill.
We have a new Andy Barclay in the form of Justin Whalin and a new setting in the form of Kent Military School. Andy is sent there after not being able to keep it together for fear that Chucky might be lurking around the corner ready to play ‘hide the soul’ with him. But before you can say any of those ritualistic voo-doo phrases like ‘in-a-gadda-da-vidda’ or ‘Wop bop a loo bop a lop bam boom!’ Chucky finds a new body to possess. This time it’s a prepubescent black kid by the name of Ronald Tyler and Chucky couldn’t be happier (“Right. Just think, Chucky’s gonna be a bro.”). To get from soul A-Andy-t0 soul B-Tyler-Chucky has to do a lot of killing. So we get to see a corporate big-wig systematically killed off, a hapless schmuck crushed in his own garbage truck, a colonel scared to death by the Chuckster and a war simulation that gets real after Chucky switches out the paint-gun rounds for live ammo. Ho hum. I’m beginning to have serious doubts as to whether I should give this film a higher rating than its predecessor. An effective opening does not a good movie make. I can’t even give credit to Brad Dourif as the voice of Chucky; he doesn’t sound scary, he sounds tired.
It’s a shame to see a film franchise start off so promising and fail so miserably as the first three films in the Child’s Play series. It reminds me of a scene on Family Guy where Stephen King’s agent asks him if he has any ideas for a new book. King says he does and that it’s about an evil lamp and waves a lamp around ominously and says ‘Oooooooo’ a lot for effect. Without missing a beat the agent says to him, “You’re not even trying anymore, are you?” I believe the producers of the Child’s Play franchise quit trying after the first movie.
TRIVIA
Peter Jackson was asked to direct.
Chucky always loses his right hand before he dies. Here’s the proof: in Child’s Play, Andy’s mom shoots it off. In Child’s Play 2, Chucky tears it off to escape from a bar. In Child’s Play 3, Andy cuts it off with a knife.
The movie was the center of a tabloid panic on its British release, with one newspaper – The Sun – even demanding copies be burned. Journalists claimed the film had influenced two young boys in their murder of a younger child, two-year-old James Bulger, although it was later determined that neither had actually seen this film.
The first film in the series that Chucky in doll form uses a gun as a weapon.
Justin Whalin also appears in Serial Mom and Dungeons & Dragons.
Perrey Reeves also appears in Old School and Mr. & Mrs. Smith.
Jeremy Sylvers also appears in the TV series Saved By the Bell and My Wife and Kids.

What do I remember the most about Child’s Play 2? The answer to that question would have to be that stupid trailer. You know; the one where Chucky steps on the Jack-in the-Box and says “Sorry Jack, Chucky’s back!” Why do I remember it so well? It’s because I had a friend of mine who had a kid who repeated that line over and over. The problem with that is that the little ankle biter had a speech impediment so that made it come out more like “Sorry Dack, Thucky’s back!” I think the kid grew up to be Justin Bieber or some other famous twerp.
Anyway, what was I talking about in the first place? Oh yeah, Child’s Play 2. You can sum the production of this film up to the excellent box office that the first film achieved. The plot of Child’s Play 2 is so threadbare that I still have trouble comprehending how the filmmakers managed to stretch it out to 84 minutes. It’s two years after the first film and Andy Barclay, the kid who Chucky the murderous My Buddy-err-Good Guy Doll wants to transfer his human soul into, is sent to live with foster parents while his mom spends time in a psych ward for backing up his story about a killer doll. Naturally, Chucky finds Andy, kills the foster parents and then takes off with the kid for a grand finale at the toy factory that mass produces the Good Guy dolls in the first place. In between all this are several scenes of Andy being blamed for trouble that Chucky causes and having no one who will believe him. There is just not enough of a plot for this film to justify an 84 minute run-time. Do you think they might be accounting for the lackadaisical performances from each and every one of the cast members; with the exception of Brad Dourif in his reprisal of Chucky?
Is there any part of Child’s Play 2 that even remotely looks as if the filmmakers were trying to make a scary movie? I don’t think that there is. It seems like all I have done for this entire review is ask and then answer my own questions. For my closing sentence let me ask one more question about Child’s Play 2: is it as good as Child’s Play? Answer: not even close.
TRIVIA
According to commentary by writer Don Mancini on the DVD of the first film, the reason the rest of the “Child’s Play” films are released by Universal instead of MGM/UA (despite the first film being highly successful for them), was that United Artists was about to be bought out by a company that wanted to abstain to a “family friendly” slate of films. The property was then gladly sold to Universal. Ironically, Qintex, the company that made the bid to purchase United Artists, dropped the deal not long after the film set up shop somewhere else.
The only film in the series where entirely Chucky doesn’t use a real gun as a weapon (although he does use a squirt-gun as a decoy).
In the later seasons of Seinfeld (1989) (in which Grace Zabriskie plays “Mrs. Ross,” after playing “Grace Poole” in this film), a copy of Child’s Play 2 can be spotted on the shelf in Jerry’s apartment where he keeps his VHS tapes.
Kevin Yagher ended up directing several scenes featuring Chucky when the puppets proved problematic to work with.

Movie Review: John Dies at the End.
Reblogged from The Official Site of Alex Laybourne.
Where to begin with a review of possibly the most bizarre thing I have ever seen. I read the book to this a few weeks ago, and I will admit, it took me a little while to get into. Once I was in however, I was in all the way. It was an engrossing novel and I loved it. Coming into this movie, I had high hopes. Knowing what a wonderfully creative plot lay ahead of me, it must have been a film maker’s dream to transpose the book onto the silver screen.
I can’t believe I just made this movie. The book was so good!
CHILD’S PLAY

Catharine Hicks as Karen Barclay in Child’s Play
Chris Sarandon as Mike Norris in Child’s Play
Alex Vincent as Andy Barclay in Child’s Play
Brad Dourif as Charles Lee Ray…
…and as Chucky in Child’s Play
Directed by Tom Holland
Story by Don Mancini
Screenplay by Don Mancini, John Lafia and Tom Holland
The first and, until now, only time that I saw Child’s Play was on VHS in the early 1990′s. The same goes for Child’s Play 2 and Child’s Play 3-one viewing upon their respected home-entertainment format releases. I’ve seen Bride of Chucky numerous times because I think the movie is hilarious. In fact, both Bride of Chucky and its follow-up Seed of Chucky are known more for their humor than for their horror. Making a long story short, what I am trying to say is that until I re-watched Child’s Play I had forgotten that Chucky used to be one mean, murderous, voodoo chanting, gun-toting, hammer-wielding, overalls wearing little piece of red-haired plastic. My only assumption as to his foray into comedy is that I guess starring in two films with Jennifer Tilly and her cleavage can take the edge off a guy-err-doll.
Chucky starts out in life, so to speak, as Charles Lee Ray, a serial killer on the run from the Chicago police. Charles is killed in a shoot-out in a toy store but is able to transfer his soul to the nearest vessel which just happens to be a ‘Good Guy’ doll. His plan will be to hide out in the doll until he can find a human vessel to possess. He doesn’t have to wait too long; Karen Barclay wants a ‘Good Guy’ doll for her son Andy on his birthday and isn’t above acquiring one from a grimy street peddler. Which one does she acquire? Do you even have to ask? Pretty soon Charles-err-Chucky is up to his murderous ways and taking Andy on the adventure of his life in search of any loose ends (people) that need to be taken care of (killed). Think Charles Starkweather meets Ferris Bueller’s Day Off and you’ll have a good idea of what I’m talking about. After Chucky takes care of business it’s time to find a newer and more human vessel for his mean old soul. Hmm, I wonder who it will be. I’ll give you a hint: he’s six years old, his name starts with an ‘A’ and ends with a ‘Y’ and he’s just oh so adorable. I think I just threw up in my mouth a little. Will Chucky reside in the body of a six year-old boy; or will the good guys (pun intended) win the day?
In case you didn’t know it, the Good Guy doll is similar in make and model to the popular My Buddy dolls of the mid-1980’s. I personally don’t believe that this similarity was an accidental one. As creepy as I found Chucky I found the My Buddy doll to be even creepier. Real life creepy will win over movie creepy every time.
So, I’ve re-watched the first film in the Chucky franchise after a hiatus of nearly 25 years. I can’t say that it’s as good as I remember because to be honest until I saw it again I didn’t remember much about it. What I can say is that I saw it again for the first time and that I liked it the first time I saw it the second time around; or something to that effect.
Chucky’s full name, Charles Lee Ray, is derived from the names of notorious killers Charles Manson, Lee Harvey Oswald, and James Earl Ray.
In the scene where Chucky runs behind Maggie in the hallway, Chucky was actually played by Alex Vincent’s younger sister.
The Chucky films have always been accused of inspiring violence in children. One case linked to the series was a gang in Manchester kidnapping and murdering a 16-year-old girl. While they tortured her, they forced her to listen to recordings of the gang leader repeating the catchphrase “I’m Chucky, wanna play?” Director Tom Holland has always defended the first film from these accusations, stating that viewers of horror movies could only be influenced by their content if they were unbalanced to begin with.
The working title for the film was “Blood Buddy,” which seems to confirm the widely believed notion that the film was inspired by Hasbro’s My Buddy toy doll, which also dressed in denim overalls and a striped shirt.
Child’s Play (1988) continues a theme in Tom Holland’s films of people seeing something supernatural, but they can’t get anyone else to believe them. E.g. Scream for Help(1984), Cloak & Dagger (1984), and Fright Night (1985).
John Lithgow was rumored to be considered to play and voice Chucky.
Catherine Hicks also appears in Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home and Peggy Sue Got Married.
Chris Sarandon also appears in Fright Night and Dog Day Afternoon.
Alex Vincent also appears in Child’s Play 2 and Curse of Chucky.
Brad Dourif also appears in One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest and Wise Blood.
Creepy. Little. Bastard.

+1
+1-United States-95 Mins. 2013
Rhys Wakefield as David in +1
Logan Miller as Teddy in +1
Ashley Hinshaw as Jill in +1
Natalie Hall as Melanie in +1
Directed by Dennis Iliadis
Story by Dennis Iliadis
Screenplay by Bill Gullo
+1 isn’t just a film about duplicates; it’s also about second chances. The film begins with David and Jill, young lovers. David makes a horrible mistake and it’s not until later at a party that he has a chance to rectify that mistake. The film also begins with what appears to be a comet and then a power outage. When the lights come back on everyone has an exact double of themselves. Each time the power goes out and comes back on the duplicates move closer in time to where the actual person is at that moment. Did I say +1 is about second chances? That part is true; it’s also about paranoia and the mistrust of something different, even if it is within us. The only person in the film who understands this and works in tandem with her double is the girl who is ridiculed for being different in the first place. As for David and Jill, David seizes the opportunity to make good with Jill by remembering the details of a failed conversation he had with her earlier and manipulating it to his favor when the time for it to occur a second time comes around.
I wanted to like +1. The concept of the doppelganger is an interesting one and +1 takes a good approach to the subject. The trouble with +1 is that the doppelgangers don’t do anything. In the end, when all was said and done and I should have enjoyed a horror movie that just happened to have a wild party it felt more like a remake of Project X (2012) with a little horror thrown in. Make that very little horror.

HAUNTER-Canada/France-97 Mins. 2013
Abigail Breslin as Lisa in Haunter

Michelle Nolden as Carol in Haunter
Stephen McHattie as The Pale Man in Haunter
Directed by Vincenzo Natali
Written by Brian King
Ghost and haunted house movies have changed over the years. They used to be simple, they followed a pattern. The ghost haunts the house and the living people are scared of it until they can either get rid of it or come to understand what it wants. But then M. Night Shyamalan comes along and decides to make a ghost movie with a twist and pretty soon everybody wants to make a ghost movie with a twist. The disconcerting thing about this is that you can’t just tell another living soul the plot of a ghost movie anymore; you have to be careful not to reveal the ‘twist’ and therefore spoil it for them. There’s a twist to Haunter, but its okay to reveal what it is because it’s an integral part of the plot.
Lisa Johnson lives in a house with her parents, Bruce and Carol; and her brother, Robbie. She complains like any teenager about being bored and doing the same thing every day, day in and day out. The same food, the same TV shows the same talks over and over again. Sometimes a day is a little different, but not by much. There’s a good reason for all this repetitiveness: Lisa and her family are the ones who are dead and haunting the house they’re living in. Before you cough into your hand and say, “The Others” I can assure you that you are only half-right. The main theme of the film is that it’s not the dead that we should be afraid of; it’s the living we should fear. The human in question is a kidnapper and murderer with his sights set on another family. Lisa has to convince his previous victims to ‘wake up’, or realize that they are dead in order to stop the killer and save the still-living family that she’s come to care about.
I admit that I didn’t expect to like Haunter as much as I did. My initial intention was to watch it to get the memory of a far more disturbing film out of my head. Instead, Haunter went beyond my expectations. Yes, it would seem that it is aimed mainly at teens and no, there is no blood or gore. However, a strong performance from Abigail Breslin and the appearance of a wretchedly creepy Stephen McHattie along with a fresh take on a now-old twist make Haunter worth a look.

A SERBIAN FILM
A SERBIAN FILM-Serbia-104 Mins. 2010
Srdjan Todorovic as Milos in A Serbian Film
Sergej Trifunovic as Vukmir in A Serbian Film
Directed by Srdjan Spasojevic
Screenplay by Aleksandar Radivojevic and Srdjan Spasojevic
I watched A Serbian Film early Sunday morning. This seems to be a good time to watch movies. Everyone is asleep and I can put my headphones on and drink beer and enjoy the movie. Enjoy; enjoy is a strong word and an erroneous one to use when it comes to A Serbian Film. Its 6:29 on Sunday morning and I am still trying to process what I saw.
A Serbian Film tears me down the middle. On one hand I find it to be offensive, brutal, sadistic and misogynistic filmmaking. On the other, I see it as brilliant, horrifying and unflinching on all levels. Is it art? Is it pornography? Is it a simulated snuff film? I believe the answer to all of those questions would be a resounding yes…and no. It is all and nothing of the three. It’s a masterpiece that will assault your senses and make you long for a steaming shower.
At the beginning of the film a six year-old boy sits on a couch watching a pornographic video. It’s no surprise that the child is seeing this; the actor in the film is his father, Milos, a now semi-retired porn actor in his homeland of Serbia. From conversation heard throughout the film we learn that Milos was a legend in blue cinema due to his ability to not only make himself erect without stimulation but also to keep erect and to seemingly never tire of endless fornication. Think Dirk Diggler with a foreign accent. Milos is concerned about his son seeing his films. His wife Marija is also concerned; she is also aware that their financial future is an uncertain one. When Milos is propositioned by former co-star Lejla to make one more film for Vukmir, an independent, ‘visionary’ pornographer and is offered an amount of money that will keep his family financially secure for the rest of their lives it is a hard offer to pass up. Vukmir wants him in his film for his gifted appendage and tells him nothing about the plot. This would normally be the time that any person with common sense would say ‘thanks, but no thanks’ and then walk away. Milos accepts, however, and soon comes to regret his decision in ways that he could have never imagined.
I expected A Serbian Film to be brutal and bloody and it is. I knew before I watched the film that there would be one particular scene involving the rape of a newborn and there is; although thankfully it appears the part has been edited for viewing here in the United States. A Serbian Film has elements of snuff, child pornography, bestiality, rape, self-mutilation, necrophilia and murder. There is decapitation, asphyxiation by fellating, bludgeoning. Despite these things I cannot deny that it is an expertly crafted piece of cinema. Srdjan Todorovic and Sergej Trifunovic are fantastic in their roles as Milos and Vukmir. The film unfolds its brutality slowly, adding more blood, more gore and more depravity from one scene to the next.
Ultimately, despite the fact that I praise A Serbian Film I cannot in good conscience recommend it. I find myself so torn by the film that I’m not giving it the traditional 0 to 5 blood drops that I use as my system of rating. What I will say is that if and when you do decide to watch A Serbian Film then know this: you may love it or you may hate it; there is absolutely no possibility that you will forget it, ever.
