Universal Pictures Home Entertainment has released the red and green band trailer for their horror flick, Cult of Chucky. Before making its way onto DVD and Blu-Ray, the evil “Good Guy” doll, inhabited by serial killer Charles Lee Ray, returns for his blood-splattered seventh installment.
After the events of Curse of Chucky, Nica (Fiona Dourif) has been confined to an asylum for the criminally insane for the past four years, No one believes Nica when she says the truth, Chucky murdered her entire family. When her psychiatrist introduces a new group-therapy too— a “Good Guy” doll —a string of grisly deaths plague the asylum. Nica begins to wonder if maybe she isn’t crazy after all.
Check out our 5 thoughts on the Curse of Chucky official trailer:
5) Andy’s Back!
In the open-ending of Curse of Chucky, Andy Barclay (Alex Vincent) has now-grownup and trained himself to ready for the return of nemesis. Finally showing up at his home, Chucky though was caught by surprise when Andy pointed a shotgun directly to his face. Will Andy arrive rescue Nica in time from Chucky’s terror?
4) The Death of Andy?
Did writer/director Don Mancini bring back Andy just to kill him off? If you follow horror movies, you know the protagonist always dies in the sequels. Doctor Loomis (Donald Pleasence) fought to the death against Michael Myers in Halloween II. Nancy (Heather Langenkamp) met her own demise against Fred Krueger in A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors. We will definitely have to get the DVD to find out!
3) Nica’s Back Too!
Fiona Dourif definitely has an appealing charm when she shows up on camera. The Manhattan actress was just mesmerizing in her tragic role as Jean Tatlock. I’m very excited to see another performance by this charismatic young starlet.
2) That Voice!
Brad Dourif returns as the voice of Chucky and everything is right with the world. This time around, Chucky may not be the only depraved murderer in the asylum, because that psychiatrist in the trailer appears to have a killer instinct as well.
1) Jennifer Tilly!
Jennifer Tilly rejuvenated the horror franchise when she showed up in Bride of Chucky. Tilly manages to bring a lot heart and black humor as the psychotic Tiffany. After the Seed of Chucky installment, I want to know if she’s playing Tiffany or playing herself once again. Or does continuity even matter at this point? Either way, Jennifer Tilly is a true delight to watch!
Cult of Chucky arrives on DVD, Blu-ray, and Digital HD October 3, 2017.
