...joys of Chucky are pure and simple. There's this doll, see, and he's possessed by the soul of a serial killer and so he kills a lot of people in improbable ways. Twist? Chucky's ex-girlfriend is turned into an equally evil and equally plastic doll. The brilliance of this premise will not be appreciated during our lifetime. With just a sprinkling of self-consciousness and heaps of bad taste, director Yu has made a B-movie that can easily stand next to such giants as Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill!, and Plan 9 From Outer Space...

...Bride of Chucky, the latest movie starring the fatally adorable doll possessed by the soul of a serial killer, opened last weekend.

...joys of Chucky are pure and simple. There's this doll, see, and he's possessed by the soul of a serial killer and so he kills a lot of people in improbable ways. The sheer inanity of this premise ensures entry into B-movie heaven, but as this is the fourth of the Child's Play movies (it's been 10 years since the first) something new is added: Chucky's ex-girlfriend is turned into an equally evil and equally plastic doll. So there are all your standard horror movie tropes--"chilling" music, ridiculous quick cuts...
