Kind of shits the bed in terms of the Child's Play mythos, and looks as cheap as it is, but it's always a good time watching Chucky do his thing. Final rating:★★ - Had some things that appeal to me, but a poor finished product.

Literally one of the worst films I've ever seen. I saw Child's Play 1 and 2 years ago and enjoyed them but skipped over the later movies. Watched this as I saw it had a great review somewhere online in those 'overlooked horror movie' lists. But wow. This was awful. I was angry with myself for watching until the end. Total garbage.

My 2nd favorite out of the series. More chuckies to deal with and it's pretty funny and awesome. And the original Andy from the first 2 is back in this movie. Loved it!
