WAMG Interview: THE WOMEN OF CHUCKY

Curse of Chucky Junket

3 weeks ago I had the pleasure of interviewing the creator of Chucky, Don Mancini, along with the entire cast of his new film CURSE OF CHUCKY. Having now seen the movie, I agree with the general consensus that it is one of the best “scary” Chucky films. I will always have a soft spot for CHILD’S PLAY 2 and to be honest, my overall favorite is still BRIDE OF CHUCKY. As a longtime fan of the franchise, it really was an honor getting to sit down and chat with all those involved. Since the interviews were split by gender, I decided that would be the best way to post them. Below is my interview with Danielle Bisutti and the true Seed of Chucky, Fiona Dourif. Check back tomorrow morning for my interview with the Men of Chucky (Don Mancini, Brad Dourif & Alex Vincent).

WAMG At NYCC 2013

nycc-banner--560x225

The last two weeks have been amongst the busiest in my entire life. As a result, my New York Comic Con coverage for this site has been non-existent. Now that my friend’s wedding is over, the Orlando Film Festival has come to a close, my extravagant musical puppet wedding proposal was a huge success and I am now back in New York, it is finally time to get my NYCC experience online.

Thursday has always been a preview day at NYCC defined by shorter hours, smaller crowds and few panels/signings. Oddly enough, I have never attended on a Thursday but it was always my plan to make it this year. That was until Wednesday October 9th when I received an invitation from Universal to attend a junket for CURSE OF CHUCKY. To celebrate the 25th anniversary of Child’s Play the new sequel and the NYCC panel, they were offering interviews with creator Don Mancini, voice of Chucky Brad Dourif, Alex Vincent (Andy Barclay), as well as Fiona Dourif & Danielle Bisutti from the new film. As a longtime Chucky fan, I had to jump at this opportunity even though it used up what little time I set aside for Comic Con on that Thursday. The interviews will be posted very soon.

Curse of Chucky Junket

I arrived on Friday to NYCC just before the floor opened up so I spent a few minutes in the press lounge. I must say, this year’s press location is much improved over the hard to find room we were located in last year. We also had quite a cool view of the show floor as you can see below.

NYCC 2013

Once the floor opened, I was immediately drawn to the South Park setup to promote the new videogame. I had to actually show my id to get inside but was a bit disappointed to find that all we were in for was a few minutes of gameplay with no cool prize after. I am not sure what I was expecting but maybe I am just spoiled from when everyone received foam Wolverine claws after checking out the demo for the insanely fun Wolverine videogame a few years back. After wandering the show floor for a few more minutes, I made my way to the main stage for the Kevin Smith COMIC BOOK MEN panel.

NYCC 2013

Obviously Kevin was the star of the show with most questions being thrown his way. It was still refreshing to hear from everyone else about their take on the show as well. It was also seeing them try to figure out what exactly it is that Bryan Johnson actually does at the shop.  One thing I loved at this panel, and something that I love at every Kevin Smith Q & A, is when he goes into a passionate speech about why everyone should follow their dreams. The only thing I hate is that I never seem to have the camera on when he does that.

NYCC 2013

Immediately following Kevin Smith was the CURSE OF CHUCKY panel, which I had reserved seating for in the front row. The panel, moderated by Harry Knowles, addressed many of the questions I had asked the day before. The only additional guest was Jennifer Tilly who truly seems to love her role in the Chucky universe. The panel kicked off with a message from Chucky, as well as this amazing (and totally NSFW) video:

I spent the rest of the day wandering around the show floor taking pictures and checking out booths. I always try to get a few on-the-spot interviews at the booths and at the signing tables but it unfortunately did not work out this year. I noticed most of the bigger guests were not around until Saturday and Sunday, and those that were there charged a hefty fee to even get close to them this year. I did get a chance to chat with our old friend Dan Fogler for a bit who told me we should set up an interview soon because he has some cool news to announce. Be sure to keep an eye out tomorrow for my NYCC photo recap!

First Images From CURSE OF CHUCKY

Curse Of Chucky

Check out the first official images of Chucky from the upcoming film CURSE OF CHUCKY that will debut on Blu-ray and DVD later this Fall.

Curse Of Chucky

Nica (Fiona Dourif) is grieving over the gruesome suicide of her mother when her domineering older sister Barb (Danielle Bisutti) arrives with her young family in tow to help settle their mother’s affairs. As the sisters butt heads over Nica’s plans for the future, Barb’s young daughter comforts herself with a grinning, red-haired talking doll named Chucky (Brad Dourif) that recently arrived mysteriously in the mail.

But as a string of brutal murders begins to terrorize the household, Nica suspects the doll may hold the key to the bloodshed. What she doesn’t know is that Chucky has a personal score to settle. He’s determined to finish a job he started more than 20 years earlier, and this time he’s going to see it through to the bloody and shocking end.

CURSE OF CHUCKY Begins Principal Photography On The New Universal DVD Original; Brad Dourif Returns To Voice “Chucky”

The sixth installment of the frightening Child’s Play thriller franchise, CURSE OF CHUCKY, begins principal photography in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, on September 5, 2012. The franchise comes full circle as Toyland’s most gruesome serial killer returns in a horrifying all-new movie from Universal 1440 Entertainment, a production entity of Universal Studios Home Entertainment.

“Since his introduction to audiences in Child’s Play almost a quarter-century ago, Chucky has haunted the nightmares of a generation of moviegoers,” said Glenn Ross, General Manager and Executive Vice President, Universal 1440 Entertainment. “Returning to his roots in one of the most provocative horror franchises, this new sequel will shock longtime fans of the series and newcomers alike.”

CURSE OF CHUCKY stars Fiona Dourif (The Master, “True Blood,” “Deadwood”), A Martinez (“Longmire,” “General Hospital”), Danielle Bisutti (Get Smart, “CSI: Miami”) and Brennan Elliott (Flight 93, Double Jeopardy). Brad Dourif (The Lord of the Rings, Dune) once again returns to provide the voice of Chucky, the pint-sized doll possessed by the spirit of notorious serial killer Charles Lee Ray, who returns to settle some unfinished business.

The film is directed by Don Mancini, the Child’s Play franchise creator who has written or co-written each of the previous movies and was the director of Seed of Chucky. Also an integral part of the Child’s Play franchise from inception, David Kirschner (An American Tail, Hocus Pocus, Bride of Chucky) produces from a screenplay by Mancini. The film’s top-flight production team includes special-effects wizard Tony Gardner (Zombieland, Seed of Chucky), production designer Craig Sandells (Mother’s Day) and costume designer Patricia J. Henderson (ATM).
