In just a couple days, season 2 of the Chucky TV series is going to begin airing on Syfy and USA Network – so we thought this was the perfect time to look back at one of the most popular entries in the Chucky / Child’s Play franchise, the 1998 film Bride of Chucky (watch it HERE)! We dig into the making of the movie with the new episode of the WTF Happened to This Horror Movie? video series, and you can find out all about it in the embed above.
Directed by Ronny Yu from a screenplay by Don Mancini, Bride of Chucky has the following synopsis:
After being cut apart, killer doll Chucky is resurrected by Tiffany, an ex-girlfriend of the serial murderer whose soul is inside the toy. Following an argument, Chucky kills Tiffany and transfers her soul into a bride doll. To find the magical amulet that can restore them both to human form, Chucky and Tiffany arrange to be driven to New Jersey by Jesse and Jade, who are unaware that their cargo is alive.
The film stars Jennifer Tilly, Katherine Heigl, Nick Stabile, John Ritter, Alexis Arquette, Gordon Michael Woolvett, Lawrence Dane, Michael Louis Johnson, James Gallanders, Janet Kidder, Vince Corazza, and Kathy Najimy. Brad Dourif provided the voice of Chucky.
This is what the WTF Happened to This Horror Movie series is all about:
Hollywood has had its fair share of historically troubled productions. Whether it was casting changes, actor deaths, fired directors, in-production rewrites, constant delays, budget cuts or studio edits, these films had every intention to be a blockbuster, but were beset with unforeseen disasters. Sometimes huge hits, sometimes box office bombs. Either way, we have to ask: WTF Happened To This Horror Movie?
The Bride of Chucky episode of WTF Happened to This Horror Movie? was Written by Emilie Black, Edited by Lance Vlcek, Narrated by Jason Hewlett, Produced by Lance Vlcek and John Fallon, and Executive Produced by Berge Garabedian.
