Calling Seed of Chucky silly is an understatement. However, it's also one of the most radical studio films of the aughts: a distillation of Camp; a piece about performance; and, with both, a self-aware tale of gender.

Mancini took a big swing by going full comedy, playing into the absurdity of killer dolls, while touching on poignant topics like gender identity, addiction, and acceptance.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Oct 27, 2024

This fifth movie in the Child's Play series is considered one of the worst, but I like it for its full meta-absurdity.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 20, 2024

As Chucky and Tiffany figure out what it means to be a parent, Seed of Chucky lets Glen/Glenda navigate what it is to be themselves.

You've got to respect a sequel that not only acts as a tonal hard left turn for the franchise, but also includes a subplot about a doll questioning their gender identity.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 29, 2020

The movie quickly implodes like an over-inflated plastic sex toy. Still, if you have been following this low-budget franchise, this is going to be essential viewing.

There is one thing that cannot be denied or ignored or downplayed: Jennifer Tilly gives every inch of herself to this movie.

| Original Score: 8/10 | Jul 24, 2011

It's clear that the "Child's Play" series is dead and buried...

| Original Score: 1/5 | Aug 7, 2008

Though saddled with as egregiously silly a feel as its immediate predecessor, Seed of Chucky nevertheless comes off as a somewhat superior sequel...

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jan 3, 2008

A gutbucket farce that works better as a lampoon of Hollywood than as a horror movie.

| Original Score: B | Sep 23, 2007

| Original Score: 2/5 | Apr 1, 2006

Seed of Chucky is still a great follow-up to Bride and a very cool horror/comedy on it's own.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Feb 1, 2006

| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 6, 2005

No one rents or buys a movie like this for its Oscar moments. This is a fun romp of a flick that's going to be fun with a group of friends and a keg.

| Original Score: B- | Jul 29, 2005

At least it knows it's bad.

| Original Score: C- | Jun 26, 2005

| Original Score: 7/10 | May 14, 2005

Hit-and-miss comedy horror that is often extremely funny, thanks to a splattering of decent gags and an impressive comedy turn from Jennifer Tilly.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 14, 2005

It's not very good, but it's great fun.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 5, 2005
