After watching Amnesiac last night, I decided that I wanted
to venture into some classic horror characters for the rest of the night. After
some debate inside my head, I figured that I could give Chucky another shot.
Sure, some of the sequels were horrid, but that character has always been
awesome. With that in mind, I decided on the 2013 entry Curse of Chucky.
Plot/ After her mother's mysterious death, Nica begins to
suspect that the talking, red-haired doll her visiting niece has been playing
with may be the key to recent bloodshed and chaos.
For the longest time, I was convinced that the Child's Play
model and Chucky had run its course. However, after watching this installment,
I was wrong. This movie is one of the best in the series and one that should
have received more attention. The storyline was interesting, the soundtrack
spot on, the atmosphere is heavy and Chucky is at his best. The special effects
are notably good, as they allowed for a tremendous of depth inside many
different kills. Yes, some of the acting may have been too rigid to make this a
perfect flick, but it is all rather good. In the end, this may be the best
installment of the series since the original and makes some of the duds even more forgettable.
Sure, this entertaining flick is not for everyone, but it should be. Check it
out!
