What is a sculptured package? Otherwise, it looks pretty cool to me. I still haven't seen Seed yet.

Re: Chucky The killer DVD Set
So where is the first film? Child's Play.. That is definetly the most "frightening" of all the films. The only one of any of the films that has some truly scary moments.. The rest are kind of used a joke.. Although I have to admit I liked part 2 the most.

Re: Chucky The killer DVD Set
I haven't watched any of the films in length. Though I do remember one scene something about kids at a military camp and Chucky puts live rounds and grenades into their pouches or something.

Re: Chucky The killer DVD Set
Yeah thats pretty ridiculous that the first Childs Play is missing. It would be worth a buy if Childs Play was in it. Those series humor me rather than scare me so I figure a few good comedies here and there are fine.

Yea thats Childs Play 3.. I have actually seen this box set before but it didn't have Seed of Chucky in it. It was called "The Chucky Collection". So this is just sort of adding another sequel. That box set didn't have the first film either...
Which led me to believe that first film must be owned by another studio. So I did a little digging and discovered that this box set is being released by Universal and that the first films rights are owned by MGM.. That would explain the absence..

Re: Chucky The killer DVD Set
Now that I think of it, it's not that big of a deal. I mean you can get Childs Play off Amazon for like 6 bux new. It's just a bit of a hassle when you could have all the series at once. Plus, I dont know about anybody else but I prefer the sets that come with like all the original cases and artwork for each individual film.

Re: Chucky The killer DVD Set
to me it seems quite odd that for some reason they would exclude the first one. Any theories?

The distribution rights for the original and the sequals are owned by two different companies. MGM owns the original and Universal the sequals.

Man that bites, if Uni was planning to do this they should have bought the rights to the original...or at least come to an agreement to pay MGM part of the money they make of the pack.

Quit stealing my thunder Goon. It is clear that you read my post and somehow managed to go back in time and post it first.

Re: Chucky The killer DVD Set
Hey Meh I think I might have found out the information you are looking for. The distribution rights for the original and sequals are both owned by seperate companies. MGM owns the original Childs Play and Universal owns the sequels. Hope that clears up the smoke a lil bit.
So whats everyone else talkin' about?

Re: Chucky The killer DVD Set
I don't really like any Chucky movies. How can a little doll be frightening? 
Stick it in the microwave and nuke it, or a 1000 other ways to do the little shit in.
The only part I thought was any good was up to the point where Brad Dourif's character stumbled into the store after getting shot and chanted those words. After that the movie went downhill. 
And the sequels I thought were sad excuses for horror movies. Just my opinion anyways.

The first two chucky flicks where the best, As for the 3rd one thats when i thought the childs Play flicks where done for. Thankfully Tilly showed up to make parts 4 & 5 a little more interesting might i say

Re: Chucky The killer DVD Set
Don't think I will be getting this boxset. I saw Child's Play 3 yesterday on Showtime and it all came back to me how silly it was. I'm more of getting the first movie of every franchise (Halloween, Nightmare, Friday).

Yea when three came around that was the downfall.. Tilly helped provide some much needed eye candy and made the series worth watching again but it will never touch the first two again..

Re: Chucky The killer DVD Set
Just out of curiousity, does anyone else think that a killer "doll" is a bit degrading for the wonderfull genre of horror?
