Episode 5

BRIDE & SEED OF CHUCKY (1998/2004) ft. Harmony & BJ Colangelo // SCC #5

Published on: 26th June, 2020

Happy Pride Month from the Bloody Blunts Cinema Club, where here on episode 5 we're celebrating by continuing coverage on the Chucky franchise. Volume 2 brings two increasingly gay entries to the killer doll series as Chucky struggles to become a husband and father, respectively. Bride & Seed of Chucky are all about identity, a big topic in the queer community so I brought in some back-up in the form of dynamic horror-writing duo BJ & Harmony Colangelo! We have a great conversation about the series' tonal shift, Seed's depiction of gender dysphoria, and Don Mancini's importance to the queer community of horror. Take a hit of that spooky shit and press play!

New episodes every Tuesday! Next week: we will close out the Chucky Franchise saga with Volume 3 covering Curse & Cult of Chucky, as well as touch base on the *eye roll* 2019 Child's Play remake.

NOTE: We recommend starting at Season 2 (Ep60) as that's when Garrett joined and began our current format. Season 1 was the experimental phase haha
NOTE: The first 99 episodes, we were under "Bloody Blunts" however the show didn't change, so Season 3 is where we continued as "Specter Cinema"
