After seven years, 1998's Bride of Chucky revived the Child's Play franchise in a most surprising way. But is the movie the series' apex or a weird step in the wrong direction. In any case, director Ronny Yu's film notably unites Chucky (voiced by Brad Dourif) with his blushing bride, Tiffany Valentine (Jennifer Tilly).
In the fourth episode of our Child's Play/Chucky mega-series, Pablo Saldana helps us discuss why Bride of Chucky is such a pivotal turning point for the series. We'll discuss the movie's introduction of Tiffany, how it anoints Chucky as a top-tier horror villain, and how series writer Don Mancini takes creative control of Chucky's cinematic shenanigans.
Listen in as we enter the "Chucky and Tiffany" section of the Child's Play franchise. And prepare to meet Chucky's seed with Mancini's directorial debut in our next episode.
