More on CHILD'S PLAY The Remake

Chucky

Sorry I have been a little tied up with bunch of stuff but I’m here now at least to share with you some cool info from the movie world.
The brilliant minds behind those Chucky Movies have spoken again, to Shocktilyoudrop.com about the plan to remake CHILD’S PLAY.
Last month Don Mancini and David Kirschner said that they want to go back to the straightforward horror rather than the horror comedy.
So what now? This is what they said…well, not much, but it sounds like they’re cookin’ up somethin’ all right….

Mancini: Naturally, I don’t want to say too much. A lot of the Chuck mythology was reworked by David and Tom Holland – specifically the voodoo aspect but also the specific detail of Chucky being possessed by the soul of a serial killer, which is distinct from my script where he was the living embodiment of the kid’s Id. All of the stuff in the movie is such an intrinsic part of the mythology I think it would be misguided to stray from that too far. We have ways and ideas of making that darker. Darker, we believe, than the original movie.

Kirschner: Don takes basically the original concept – the twists and turns and expectations you know – and will shock you. I know I was. It’s still within the arena of characters, but he does different things. You feel comfort going into some of the scenes, but you shouldn’t be. Don pulls the rug right out from underneath you.
