It’s hard to believe that the return of Chucky in Don Mancini’s TV series is almost at the end of its first season, but before the eighth episode next week, the new trailer shows the Demonic Doll not quietly coming out and instead bringing an entire army of Chuckys to to play. The final episode is titled “A Case to Dismember” and, according to the synopsis, “the scores old and new will be settled, and sparks will spring, as Chucky’s evil plan comes to fruition in a particularly dangerous and public place. ”

The passage of Chucky on the small screen has been an evil joy to watch, with familiar faces and newcomers combining to give the killer toy a whole new life, and it all climaxes next week with Tiffany – played by the brilliant Jennifer Tilly – having reunited a whole army of Chucky dolls all possessed by the spirit of Charles Lee Ray, the personality of Nica Pierce divided with that of the killer and Chucky’s old nemesis Andy, heading for another confrontation with his old “friend”.

Last week, Fiona Dourif, who plays Nica, teased that fans are unprepared for the ‘crazy’ final that is brewing. being the daughter of Chucky Actress Brad Dourif, she also took on the role of young Charles Lee Ray in flashbacks of the series, who saw his voice combined with that of his father in the episode “Little Little Lies”.

“They made this decision very late,” she told Bloody Disgusting. “It was originally my voice, and I was making a copy of hers. I think they made the decision to dub my dad because it also sounded like Nica was possessed. They thought it would be confusing. . I was surprised; they made that decision very late too. I almost don’t know how to describe how strange it is to see the remnants of my features with my father’s face and voice above me. .

Asked about the final, she didn’t want to spoil it but said there was a mad rush ahead.

“I’ll tell you this; the finish is crazy. It gets so crazy and goes places I never expected. And while we were doing that, there were times when it was like three in the morning, and we were sitting behind these monitors, with all the puppeteers and Don [Mancini]. We just laugh with joy and laughter. We had real freedom to drive him really crazy, and we had a lot of fun. I think the fans are going to like that too. I have a little confidence in myself.

Chucky managed to capture the tone of the Child’s play movies perfectly, and having Mancini as the driving force behind it clearly worked a treat in preventing anyone else from coming up with new ideas of what Chucky should be and completely change the character, design or story, which was the case in the remake of the film in 2019.

You can watch the season finale on Tuesday on SyFy and USA Network.
