Chucky Really Dead?
Esplatter reports (via Dark Horizons) that Don Mancini (Chucky screenwriter) told a crowd at the Fangoria Weekend of Horrors convention that the proposed "Bride of Chucky" sequel is history. He said the project is "dead in the water" with Universal seeing their entire horror roster as a "bastard step child" and in fact are a little embarassed that Bride of Chucky made so much for them.

Chucky ain't totally gone though, Mancini confirmed he's working on a "Chucky vs. Freddy" project with New Line showing enthusiasm for the idea. While 'Seed' may not hit the screen, Mancini had a story ready which would've had Tiffany (Jennifer Tilly) trying to "prevent the baby from becoming a murderer like its mother and father by participating in 12-step groups over the phone, in an attempt to overcome her addiction to killing...Meanwhile, the baby would not have been anatomically correct, so it would have been faced with a major idenity crisis."
