Just when you think the Child's Play franchise couldn't get any worse, it does! With this 5th installment in the now ever disappointing franchise, you can hope for worse if not flatness to come!This installment explores the son of the killer doll, but not in the way you'd think. Bride of Chucky was one thing but this... wow... took the cake! Flat out terrible! All the seriousness & dark twisted humour, not to mention basic serious story-line of the first 3 films that everyone knows & loves has gone right down the crapper! Whatever last ounce was seen in Bride of Chucky is completely gone here!The story-line was dumb & completely ludicrous! The deaths (although gory) were dumb & laced with twice as more humour as the previous film! Not to mention the film felt campy & just completely lost in the post Child's Play universe! This film is definitely the worst in the franchise hands down!The humour is wasted in this as a Child's Play sequel & really makes you question if you even are watching a Child's Play film let alone a horror film in general! It's seriously pathetic & I really don't know where to start! Utterly Terrible! 2/10

The child of Chucky and Tiffany has been used to perform for ventriloquist Shitface as Psychs in England. It is haunted by murders and has become a pacifist. It escapes from Shitface and heads to Hollywood to find its parents. Chucky and Tiffany are being used as props for a movie with Jennifer Tilly. She is desperate to be in Redman's next movie and is willing to do anything. Chucky and Tiffany is reanimated and reunited with their child Glen/Glenda. To Glen/Glenda's horrors, they have a disturbing plan to procreate. Joan (Hannah Spearritt) is Tilly's assistant. Pete Peters (John Waters) is a spying paparazzi.There are some hilarious stuff going on but there are also some very twisted disturbing stuff too. I do love the comedy but the disturbing story is very uncomfortable. It's not horrifying as much as awkward. First off, Glen/Glenda is creepy as hell. Chucky has a cuteness to his design but that's not close for the androgynous Glen/Glenda. Pulling down the pants is hilarious but the face is disturbing. I get the sense that this franchise is going experimental to see who is willing to follow it. I'm maybe half in. I can't condone where this is going. The franchise is going off in weird directions that may be story dead ends.

Glen a doll for a sideshow act always wondered where he came from and how he got here. When he sees a commercial for a new movie based on the legend of Chucky and Tiffany's murder sprees he sets off to Hollywood to find them.This was more of a satire on the culture that exists in the east coast with a few body thrown in to keep appearances this is still a horror franchise. When Glen takes a clue from Norman bates to kill in drag or when Chucky is quoting Brittany lyrics it's hit rock bottom.Jennifer Tiffany spends most of her talents on acting fake and over the top like the rest of the picture. Still I give her props for taking all the jokes at her expense.What amazes me is that it had all the ingredients to be another bride from special effects, good acting and gory deaths with an ensemble caste. It just forget suspense, scary and sexy imagery that helped make it a success.I did find the ending a bit chilling as Tiffany finally got what she wanted to be a star and it was the only twist I never saw coming.In the end I felt bad for Glenn who only wants acceptance from his parents and the ordeal Jennifer went through instead of horrified.While I had many problems with this sequel I still prefer it over the third installment.If you can borrow from a friend.

"Seed of Chucky" isn't the strongest of the movies in the "Child's Play" franchise. Why? Well, because they tried a bit too hard to incorporate way too much comedy. Don't get me wrong here, it is still an adequate movie, and the other "Child's Play" movies also do have elements of humor in them, but it was just a bit too much in "Seed of Chucky".As for the story in "Seed of Chucky", well I will say that it overall felt like the soup was a bit too thin, and they should have stopped the franchise a while back.The acting in the movie was good, though, as it has been in the many previous "Child's Play" movies too. But there is no doubt about the fact that it was Brad Dourif and Jennifer Tilly who carried the movie all the way.Director Don Mancini had cut down on killings in "Seed of Chucky" compared to the previous movies, and instead putting most of the focus on the dysfunctional relationship between Chucky, Tiffany and their odd son Glenn.While it is still an entertaining movie, it was just lacking the elements of the early years in the franchise, and you can say that "Seed of Chucky" sort of is a light variant of the "Child's Play" movies. As such, I am rating it a mediocre five out of ten stars.
