THE 7th CHUCKY INSTALLMENT IS A WRAP
Writer/Director Don Mancini still has some work ahead but principal filming for Curse of Chucky (the 7th Child's Play film) has officially completed. Filming wrapped back in February, in Winnipeg and sources tell us it looks like we will be seeing this film hit the shelves by the announced Fall of 2017, October 20th release date.
Curse of Chucky the last Child's Play installment, introduced us to Nica Pierce who has been wheelchair bound due to a accident in her past. Nica ends up being the latest unlucky mail recipient of Good Guy Charles Lee Ray and what ensues is a battle of psycho vs handicapped who isn't so helpless as originally thought. Curse of Chucky to this writer was actually a nice darker break from the comedic Chucky we all grown to love, instead we seem to get the more horror based Chucky that the original Child's Play gave so many of us late 80s kids nightmares about.
Without giving too much away about the upcoming Cult of Chucky the basic plot is as follows. Chucky returns to terrorize his human victim, Nica. Meanwhile, the killer doll has some scores to settle with his old enemies, with the help of his former wife.
Cult of Chucky will also go the less-comedic strain of the series, but Mancini notes that the doll's scathing one-liners will return.
The film will see the return of Jennifer Tilly and Alex Vincent (Chucky's best Friend till the End from the first two Child's Play films). Fiona Dourif will reprise here role as Nica (Fiona Dourif is real life daughter of Brad Dourif who plays Chucky). Most importantly, a huge fan welcomed return of Brad Dourif continuing his legacy as Chucky.

Be sure to include this upcoming Chucky installment in your Halloween 2017 selection. Don Mancini has yet to disappoint this series in our personal opinion so we will definitely be first in line to include this new edition to the old Chucky Bluray collection.
At this stage there is no real trailer on the web for Cult of Chucky ....well there is a teaser but shows clips from previous films and not this one so no sense in attaching that here. Instead we found this amazing look back at the making of the series that every Chucky fan should enjoy:
