Horror Icon Don Mancini Explains the Timelessness of Chucky and Chucky
franchise has been able to evolve with the times to please both old-school fans and people who are just discovering him thanks to the USA and Syfy show.
First, Mancini made sure to thank those who love Chucky the most, explaining that the franchise is flourishing “through the good graces of our fans, and we’re very grateful to them.” But he also had high praise for the people who actually bring Chucky to life. “I think one of the most important aspects of the sustained popularity of the character is due to Brad Dourif and his [vocal] performance, which I think is indelible.
And this last point is also important, given that the new series features a young cast of teens as well as its array of existing fan-favorite,” Mancini added. “Aesthetically, we love to do over-the-top, stylistic, grandiose, visual stuff. And I think that’s the way teenagers’ emotions work. Teenagers’ emotions are over the top and big. That’s how you experience things when you are a teenager. Everything is incredibly vivid. So, I think that our franchise is a great fit for that.
