Bride of Chucky

Bride of Chucky is a 1998 American black comedy slasher film written by Don Mancini and directed by Ronny Yu. The fourth installment in the Child's Play franchise, it stars Jennifer Tilly, Brad Dourif, John Ritter, Katherine Heigl, and Nick Stabile. Unlike the first three films, Bride of Chucky takes a markedly humorous turn towards self-referential parody. It also departs from the Andy Barclay storyline of the first three films, focusing mainly on series villain Chucky, a doll possessed by a serial killer, and his former lover and accomplice Tiffany, whose soul is also transferred into a doll. Bride of Chucky was released on October 16, 1998. The film grossed over $50 million worldwide on a budget of $25 million and received mixed reviews from critics. A sequel, Seed of Chucky, was released in 2004. Plot In Lockport, New York in 1998, Tiffany Valentine, Chucky's former lover and accomplice, bribes a police officer into giving her the shredded remains of Chucky's body from an evidence locker. After murdering the officer, Tiffany leaves with the doll, stitches him back together and reenacts the voodoo ritual to hopefully revive him so they can be together. Appearing to have failed the ritual, Tiffany's goth admirer Damien arrives at her trailer, wanting to hang out. After looking back at the corner where she performed the ritual, Tiffany is shocked to find tiny footprints left behind, indicating the ritual worked and Chucky is alive. Tiffany then 'playfully' handcuffs Damien to the bed and puts Chucky on his chest. After his size is insulted, Chucky's head turns around until it faces Damien. Chucky then corrects him on his comment, then suffocates him to death with a pillow as Tiffany watches in excitement. Chucky and Tiffany talk, then she presents Chucky with a ring he had left behind on the night he was killed, which she believed to be an engagement ring. When Chucky explains that he never intended on marrying Tiffany, she gets upset and locks him in a playpen and later taunts him with a bride doll. Chucky escapes the playpen and murders Tiffany by electrocuting her in a bathtub.
