15 Unbelievably Hideous Horror Movie Sequels

8. Seed Of Chucky

Bride of Chucky was great. Seed of Chucky was not.

Where the franchise-reviving Bride of Chucky was hilarious and occasionally quite sweet, Seed of Chucky is meaningless, ugly, staggeringly unfunny and just a complete mess from top to bottom. The vocal performances are still great, but aside from a hilarious Shining reference, none of the jokes land at all and it also fails to be scary. To be honest, it barely resembles a Child's Play film and feels like a garbage piece of fan fiction.

To date, this is easily the worst Child's Play film (yes, it's even worse than Child's Play 2 and Child's Play 3) and unsurprisingly it killed the franchise for nearly a decade. It eventually came back in the form of direct-to-DVD movies and a recent remake... which have all been pleasantly surprising, so at least Chucky, one of horror's greatest villains, is now getting the good material he deserves.
