Back in the day, being the day just around 16th October 1998, a flick bounded forth from Hollywood that went ahead and kicked the bejeesus out of everything either side on the release schedules. Screw you Pi, said this particular motion-film. I don't give some elses shit that you have a fella doing some number counting and then maybe drilling a hole in his head. And as for Buffallo 66, well, you can just get the first damn bus to nobody gives a flying gypsy's fuck.

Lethal Weapon 4? I laugh in the face of Lethal Weapon 4, is what. You're too old for this shit, Lethal Weapon 4, best get the hell out of town before you start talking about the war and pissing yourself.

The identity of this mystery flick was revealed as nothing less than Bride Of Chucky, the fourth number in the Child's Play franchise, dealing with a smart-ass doll that likes nothing more than to maybe stab folks in the heel and laugh and laugh and say fuck.

Bride Of Chucky ruled on so many levels that I'm guessing even Stephen Hawkins is still trying to tie them all together in some unified theory of some kind. It was funny, it was ironic, it was gory, it was inventive, it had Jennifer Tilly, but most of all, it had two dolls having a sex or two.

Director Ronny Yu and scribbler Don Mancini, who had written every damn syllable of the series, conspired to produce just about the finest killer dolls on the run flick ever made. Ronny Yu, of course, had fine-tuned his craft with both Bride With White Hair films, and also Warriors of Virtue, about youngsters and such doing the fighting and the flying.

Post-Bride, Yu also went on to do the utterly fantastic Freddy Versus Jason. Don Mancini, however, took the shimmering sphere of opportunity and set about directing his first ever flick, being a sequel to Bride Of Chucky, A.K.MOTHERFUCKING.A Seed Of Chucky.

What happened at the end of Bride, was that on account of a load of sexes between the dolls, Tiffany gave birth, although it's all very confusing what with the thunder and the lightening and the dolls trying to kill each other.

Seed Of Chucky goes about revealing that the offspring, being a fella named Shitface, is having to work for a biker ventriloquist sonnabitch in Glastonbury by pretending to be an average, everyday doll, which of course he isn't, since he's the brood of Chucky for God's sakes, most likely he'll cut the biker's damn head off.
