I Like to be Hugged

    This week we finish out our watch of Chucky.

Finally, all her work and patience is about to pay off in a way she should have seen coming. Beware Bride of Chucky.
     Shitface was found abandoned in a cemetery and now lives a life of humiliation and abuse as a ventriloquist's dummy. The only clue to their origin is a stamp "Made in Japan" on their left wrist. Meanwhile, in Hollywood, Jennifer Tilly is working on a new horror movie, Chucky Goes Psycho. Her costars are brand new animatronics made using parts from the real Chucky and Tiffany. Soon, Shitface will have two new names and their parents and every homicidal doll might get an upgrade to a human body. What horrrors are unleashed by a Seed of Chucky?
     Nica lives with her mother, Sarah, in an old, crumbling, and isolated house. One day a doll is delivered to their home from an unknown source. It isn't long until Sarah is dead and the house is stuffed with mourners spending the night before the funeral. Before dawn, Nica will learn how long she has spent her life under the Curse of Chucky.
     Andy Barclay has a secret. He has the head of Chucky mounted, half destroyed but still talking, in a safe in his wall. It plays hell with his social and romantic life. Nica has spent the last four years under the care of Dr. Foley, who finally feels it's time to transfer Nica to less a restrictive facility... a place that allows patients to have visitors. Soon the ward have as many Good Guy dolls as patients. Will either Andy or Nica escape the clutches of Cult of Chucky?
     All that and Dave has a little rant, Tyler loves to love, and Kevin feels it squish between his toes. Join us, won't you?
