muy interesante para alguien que lleva años amando a chucky! diría que mucha gente estuvo de sobra en las entrevistas cuando el cast y crew original tienen tanto que compartir sobre esta franquicia, esa es mi única queja 😞

I respect the ambition of this Documentary but unfortunately I don’t find it to be all that great, the pivot from retrospective to Kyra’s youth around this franchise was jarring. The documentary feels over ambitious and never really knows what it wants to be.
I would have liked a full documentary about how growing up with such close proximity to all this horrifying shit shaped her and how It felt always having her dad away working, but instead this feels like it manipulated fans to watch by being a retrospective and made it a personal experience for the final 20 minutes (which was the portion I preferred).
Also I know it is Don’s least favorite installment but Child’s Play 3’s segment being so short was hilarious (Don wasn’t even present in this segment).

Just a great documentary about the history of chucky. I love how they go through each movie by transitioning with VHS tapes for the movies that came out during the VHS lifespan. Even though they made Seed of Chucky a DVD when there was an official VHS release. Suprisingly they even added Dead Meat into the documentary when they talk about Childs Play 2 and Curse of Chucky. My only complaint about this besides the Seed of Chucky DVD is that they only talk about Childs Play 3 for around 5-8 minutes when every other movie got around 10-20 minutes worth of information about it. Even though this was made in 2022, Childs Play 2019 isn't mentioned once and good on them for that. This is something all chucky fans should watch if you have the time.
