Why it’s HorroRated

Cult of Chucky is the franchise at its most formally ambitious, using the multiple-Chucky premise to explore possession and identity in ways the series hadn't attempted before. The psychiatric facility setting is the best the series has found since the original's domestic space. For viewers who stayed with the franchise, this is the reward.

Synopsis

The franchise's mythology expands significantly as Chucky demonstrates the ability to be in multiple bodies at once and Andy Barclay returns in a more active role. Mancini connects threads from across the franchise's full history and the result is the most ambitious entry since the original. The reward for viewers who stayed with the series through all its iterations.
