![Cult of Chucky](https://chainsawhorror.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/13/2024/02/cult-of-chucky-still.jpg)
Never released to theaters, this 2017 installment struck a perfect tone between humor and horror, which creative director and writer Don Mancini had been refining and reinventing over decades of our favorite possessed killer doll. Not only is it a mo...

After 5 films of an increasingly wacky, campy and jokey premise, this one managed to deftly bring Chucky back to his horror roots, with a more spooky edge, stylized visuals, and dark themes.

Seed of Chucky is the most divisive of all the Child's Play films thus far. It was also the last to be released in theaters. This film leans so heavily into camp that even John Waters has a prominent role in it. Perhaps more comedy than horror, Chuck...

We continue our month of Chucky by skipping over part 3 and heading straight to the fourth in the series, which marks a distinct change in tone and style. It's also missing Andy for the first time, but we hardly miss him because we love Jennifer Till...

Welcome to Chucky Month! It's a full-month of crawling our way through the Child's Play franchise, at the request of our Loyal Patrons. Since we've already covered the first film in a previous episode, we start things off at part 2, wherein Andy cont...

Somewhat reminiscent of the classic painting with which it shares its title, American Gothic is chock-full of excellent actors acting excellently, even though the movie itself is rather silly. We enjoyed talking about it. Thanks, Gary, for the reques...

Our tribute episode to Burt Young, beloved wiseguy of countless films, best known for the Rocky series and - amongst OUR listenership - for being the angry dad in the deliciously wacky Amityville II. That SHOULD have been our tribute episode to him i...

A star-studded cast including Ethan Hawke, Julia Roberts, and two-time Academy Award-winner Mahershala Ali ushers in the potential apocalypse as a mysterious event throws off a family's weekend getaway in upstate New York.
