It's pretty much a straight (well, not QUITE) black comedy. And it's REALLY funny!<br /><br />Your mate's mum sounds fairly awesome. Or evil. Either way, very much like my older sister who chased me around the house with a one-eyed doll that I was terrified of.

Was round at my mate's (both aged about 11) to watch the video - and her mum thought it would be hilarious to sneak out into the front garden with a doll and a torch, listen through the window for a really scary bit of the film and then bang said doll against the glass whilst doing strobe effects with the torch - evil but genius! <br />Orielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12578279006435039109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003758772971289930.post-79563848845455251812014-02-03T16:54:53.576-05:002014-02-03T16:54:53.576-05:00I personally really liked it as it stayed true to ...I personally really liked it as it stayed true to the character and provided a nice bridge between films. <br /><br />Hack / Slash is a great series especially for the amount of nods it gives to horror movies, as well as also featuring memorable appearances not only by Chucky but also Herbert "Re-animator" West.<br /><br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hack/SlashElwood Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09661750406352159996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003758772971289930.post-41711388432723127982014-02-03T11:26:07.182-05:002014-02-03T11:26:07.182-05:00There are few roads that will ever NOT point back ...There are few roads that will ever NOT point back to SVU.

I don't think I was sure what to expect but I'm glad we got the film we did. Continuity was a slight issue but it didn't take away from the enhancement of the mythology or the rad ending.Ashlee Blackwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01530884243523757687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003758772971289930.post-8035432785623362742014-02-03T09:50:35.864-05:002014-02-03T09:50:35.864-05:00I was genuinely surprised with this ones, especial...I was genuinely surprised with this ones, especially after the previous two entries, which I found kind of ho-hum while his son being dropped really only added to my enjoyment here. At the same time though it was a film which seemed to correct itself everytime I found something to gripe about, with the nods to the fan being especially welcome. <br /><br />The most suprising thing though is how they have managed to take Chucky from being a comedic character back to his horror roots and create a film which was a real throw back to the first. Now I just have to wonder were they plan to go next. <br /><br />Did you read either the Chucky comic strip or the issues of Hack / Slash he appeared in all which followed on from Seed of Chucky aswell?Elwood Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09661750406352159996noreply@blogger.com
