Bride of Chucky

After the disappointing third entry that we still haven't forgiven, Todd and Brogan join Lindsay to discuss the significantly better fourth entry that ditched the Child's Play name and took the franchise in a campier direction Follow Todd on Letterboxd: letterboxd.com/juggernaut323Follow Brogan on Letterboxd: letterboxd.com/roboteatsdino Follow Lindsay on Letterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/hewasthrfriendd

Child's Play 3

It was the CEO! The night after we recorded this Brogan woke up in a cold sweat with the realization that Chucky first revealed himself to the CEO (not Tyler) and now the movie makes even less sense than it did before. Anyway, this movie is garbage.
