Quote:
Bride of Chucky is a 1998 horror comedy film distributed by Universal Pictures. It is the fourth installment in the Child's Play film series. The film is written by Don Mancini and directed by Ronny Yu. It stars Jennifer Tilly (who plays and voices the titular character Tiffany) and Brad Dourif (who voices Chucky), as well as John Ritter, Katherine Heigl, and Nick Stabile.

The film marks the point where the Child's Play series takes a more humorous turn and often into self-referential parody. It doesn't continue on with the concept of a child victim in possession of the doll, thus the absence of Child's Play in the title. Bride of Chucky follows the events of Child's Play 3 in continuity, but not tonally or in a continuation of those films' overall plot (where Chucky pursued the character Andy Barclay). This film also marks Chucky's new permanent look, a more frightening appearance in which his face is covered in stitches, staples, and scars following his fate in Child's Play 3.

Easily the best and most accomplished of the franchise. Very clever and stylish blend of comedy and horror.

I saw this multiple times when a cable channel kept looping it twice a day for a whole week. That was many years ago. I remember I enjoyed it.

Probably the most underrated film in the series. I always have a blast with it eventhough it gets pretty fucking crazy at times. A almost perfect blend of horror and comedy with a dark/sinister tone still in tack and THAT ending.

Am I honestly the only one who wasn't scared shitless when they first saw that ? Completely unexpected and I wish more horror movies had endings that memorable.

I'm a big fan of Bride Of Chucky - - I believe I saw it three times during it's initial theatrical run. I'd have to see it again to give it a grade, but it'd be right up there in the pantheon of classics. It is truly a great movie.
