Seed of Chucky Movie Review 2004

The fifth in the "Child's Play" series is filled with the usual camp and carnage, and a movie-within-a-movie premise. Tilly plays herself as an actress filming a "Chucky" movie as well as the voice of Chucky's doll bride, Tiffany. Homicidal dolls Chuck (voiced by Dourif) and Tiff are on-set and are eventually reunited with long-lost offspring Glen (voiced by Boyd), who has a gender crisis due to a lack of anatomical correctness and is sometimes Glenda (a nod to Ed Wood's 1953 masterpiece). Chucky thinks it would be swell if Glen/Glenda could have a sibling, with Tilly as the mom. The actress is nothing if not game for a variety of indignities and snarky one-liners. Waters appears briefly as a pesky paparazzo.
