idk if this has been posted already.. just a heads up for those who are into horror icons
This afternoon Bloody Disgusting reporter BC chatted with CHILD'S PLAY creator Don Mancini who talked a bit on why he's remaking the film and not continuing with a sixth film.
"Well because the main thing is that we want to make it scary again, rather than comedic," Don Mancini tells Bloody-Disgusting. "And I think that was really the response to SEED, the fans sort of told us that they want it to be scary again. I think if we did a direct sequel to SEED OF CHUCKY, which is a horror comedy, it would be a little tougher to continue the aspects of that story which so inherently absurd."
Don Mancini tells us that what it all comes down to is making the franchise scary again, and remaking it is the best way to go.
"That the bottom line, our main mission was to make it scary again and the best way to do that would be to reboot it."
One of the main questions we have all been wondering is how much of the original will be in the remake. Mancini explains that even Chucky will get a slight reboot...
"...And it's a remake, but there are a lot of new things in it" he explains. "None of the details of the murders in the first movie will be repeated. All of the setpieces are going to be completely brand new, and we're going to do a slight re-design on Chucky himself, although Brad Dourif will absolutely be the voice of Chucky, and will once again play Charles Lee Ray in the flesh. And we're giving him more to do than he did in the original movie."
