After accused of murdering her family, Nica is taken to an asylum and thinks that she's the cause of the deaths of her family. However, when grizzly deaths start to occur, she then realizes that Chucky, her illusion might not be make believe. She also finds out that the doll is slowly starting to possess anyone or anything to join a huge cult to kill off Chucky's victims, but things don't go to well in the asylum, including for Chucky's long lost friend "Andy Barcley" who tries to stop the cult from getting bigger while also trying to get past Chucky's wife, "Tiffany."
One of the better films of the series. Certainly one of the better films of the seemingly new saga. That seemed to start officially with the last film, but I will say started as soon as BRIDE OF CHUCKY came about and Jennifer Tilly became more associated with the series. Joining Brad Dourif in the ranks of usually appearing or being a voice in the series.

Let me start off by saying that I used to watch the gorgeous ladies of wrestling on a regular basis as a kid. I wasn't a die hard fan watching it every week but occasionally enough. So when it went off the air I was disappointed. Decades later when the documentary on the league/show came out I was overjoyed and brought back many nostalgic memories. So of course I was excited to watch this show. As it seemed to be in the right hands and had Alison Brie headlining who I am a fan of and Marc Marion who I am also a fan of him and his podcast.
The show isn't a total success but it is far from a failure.
