Bride of Chucky (1998)

Proper return to form
Bride of Chucky is a proper return to the oringial Chucky we all know and love. Don Mancini script is sharp and funny and the direction by Ronny Yu is equal to his Jap films. The film is a vast imporvement of Childs Play 3, however I wish Chucky would have finally gotten to kill Andy.

Oh, Bride
Let's all thank Don Mancini. Seven years after the near bore and near death of the Child's Play franchise, Mancini breathed new life into his child. Taken in a completely different way than the previous sequels, Bride of Chucky finally makes Chucky the star. The storyline is now all his, but not just him. Jennifer Tilly gives the series an extra boost as Chucky's ex-lover who revives him in doll-form only to have Chucky put her in her own doll body.

What ensues is spousal hilarity, and a lot more blood than the series has seen. There's also Katherine Heigl and Nick Stabile as our main protaginists, but do we really care about them? Actually, I never did. Like I said, this is all Chucky's movie. John Ritter's cameo was actually the next best thing to the villians in the film.

The series got ressurrected with this one
Chucky is once again ressurrected, But only this time, His long-lost girlfriend [Jennifer Tilly] gets a hold of him, But Chucky later kills her and he places her soul into a female doll and together, They cause brutal mayhem. Following the tedious Child's Play 3 [Which explains why Chucky's all sowned together in this film, Being he was thrown into a fan at the end of part 3], This is a welcome breath of fresh air. This film has some wonderful doses of dark comedy as well as some interesting murder scenes and some cool new characters. This is another great sequel in the ongoing saga of Chucky. Followed by Seed Of Chucky.
