Witness The New Trailer For ‘The Wildling’

Fritz Böhm’s supernatural coming of age tale Wildling, starring Liv Tyler and Brad Dourif (the voice of Chucky), has a new trailer. In the film, “A teenage girl’s coming of age comes with a terrifying twist in this spellbinding take on the werewolf legend. Since birth, Anna (Bel Powley) has been raised in isolation by a man she knows only as Daddy (Brad Dourif) who has done everything possible to conceal the truth about the girl’s origins from her. But when the teenage Anna is suddenly thrust into the real world under the protection of no-nonsense police officer Ellen (Liv Tyler), it soon becomes clear that the young woman is far from ordinary. Unable to adjust to a normal life, Anna finds herself drawn instead to the wild freedom of the forest while struggling to resist the growing bloodlust that has awakened inside her. This moodily atmospheric thriller combines supernatural scares with a myth-like tale of self-discovery.” James Le Gros,

Chucky’s Back For New Television Series

Who doesn’t love that psychotic, red-headed, possessed doll, Chucky? Well, the word is we are about to get a lot more of him. As the 30th anniversary of Child’s Play approaches, Comingsoon.com is reporting that franchise creator Don Mancini is bringing Chucky to the small screen for a new series. Mancini said during an interview that he and producer David Kirschner are currently developing a Child’s Play television series that will pick up where the last film left off. He also promised that the series will be “dark and disturbing”. Brad Dourif, the long-time voice of our favorite Good Guy doll turned bad boy, is on board. The eight-episode hour-long series will not be a reboot (thank God), it will be a continuation of Chuck’s story. In the final moments of the last film, Cult of Chucky, Chucky possessed the body of Nica Pierce, played by Fiona Dourif, and escaped the mental institution. She was picked up by Chucky’s long-time

Chucky’s Back In Action And On A Mission In Four New Clips From ‘Cult of Chucky’

Arriving on DVD, Netflix, and making its TV debut on AMC’s FearFest this October, Cult of Chucky is everywhere and we couldn’t be happier. We love that little evil doll who is voiced by Brad Dourif. In the film, confined to an asylum for the criminally insane for the past four years, Nica Pierce (Fiona Dourif) is erroneously convinced that she, not Chucky, murdered her entire family. But when her psychiatrist introduces a new therapeutic “tool” to facilitate his patients’ group sessions — an all-too-familiar “Good Guy” doll with an innocently smiling face — a string of grisly deaths begins to plague the asylum, and Nica starts to wonder if maybe she isn’t crazy after all. Andy Barclay (Alex Vincent), Chucky’s now-grown-up nemesis from the original Child’s Play, races to Nica’s aid. But to save her he’ll have to get past Tiffany (Oscar-nominee Jennifer Tilly), Chucky’s bride, who will do anything, no matter how deadly or depraved, to help her

The New ‘Cult Of Chucky’ Trailer Is All Kinds Of Awesome !

Chucky is back and ready to slice and dice the patients of a mental institution in Cult of Chucky. The sequel, which we first reported back in 2014, wrapped filming in February. The first full trailer is here and it looks killer. The movie picks up four years after the events of Curse of Chucky. Creator-writer-director Don Mancini has promised that Cult of Chucky will be the bloodiest and goriest film of the entire franchise. That says a lot taking inconsideration the scenes in Seed of Chucky, including Method Man’s guts being spilled at the dinner table.
