Bride of Chucky (1998)

Moving from horror into full force black comedy means the fourth instalment of the Child's Play series can poke fun at the horror genre at every turn. The plot is wafer thin, but it doesn't matter because once again it's Brad Dourif as Chucky that's the real draw. Jennifer Tilly is also good times as the Bride.
I don't know how other people feel about the changes that BoC brought to the previously established formula, but I know that it's my personal favourite of the films so far, which stands at five at time of writing. For me, the laughter and fearless self-parody raise it above the usual piece of shit horror sequel.

3½ happy honeymoons out of 5
