A little while back rumour was that Don Mancini’s ‘Curse of Chucky’ was set to hit Blu-ray and DVD this coming September. Although the rumour was quickly put to bed today we finally have an official upcoming date for the Universal Studios Home Entertainment release which will see Chucky back on US shelves from 8 October. Along with the announcement comes the first official trailer from the creepy looking follow-up that certainly seems to have headed back to its darker series roots. And in further news the 8 October will also see ‘Chucky: The Complete Collection Limited Edition’ made available on Blu-ray and DVD for the first time ever which will include all six movies from the franchise; ‘Child’s Play’, ‘Child’s Play 2’, ‘Child’s Play 3’, ‘Bride of Chucky’, ‘Seed of Chucky’ as well as the ‘Curse of Chucky’. Check out trailer and Blu-ray artwork below. Fiona Dourif, A Martinez (‘General Hospital’), Danielle Bisutti (‘Insidious: Chapter 2’) and Brennan Elliott (‘Flight 93’) all star in the new installment with Brad Dourif back to voice the stab-happy good guy doll.
“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 (voiced again by 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.”
