We learned in November per Variety that we were getting a release of documentary Living with Chucky, chronicling the famous Child’s Play franchise. We now have a trailer to prepare for the April release coming to Cinedigm’s Screambox streaming service.
The documentary Living with Chucky is directed by Kyra Elise Gardner, the daughter of Tony Gardner who is responsible for most of the classic Chucky puppeteering throughout the franchise. Imagine a child growing up with Chucky dolls all over, now revisiting the people and movies of her childhood.
It will be available starting April 4th. Interviews include Gardner, Don Mancini (original writer), Brad Dourif (the voice), Jennifer Tilly (of numerous sequels), and David Kirshner (producer).
The full description of the documentary Living with Chucky :
Living with Chucky explores the iconic Child’s Play franchise through a personal and social perspective. Directed and conceived by Kyra Gardner – daughter to chief puppeteer for the majority of the franchise Tony Gardner – Living with Chucky utilizes new and archival interview footage to expose the series cultural impact over the years, with principal cast, crew members including Don Mancini, Brad Dourif, Jennifer Tilly, Tony Gardner, and David Kirshner, alongside fans of the franchise like Marlon Wayans, John Waters, and Abigail Breslin.
“From Lin Shaye to Alex Vincent, the franchise’s exceptional cast, and tongue-in-cheek terror brought shrieks of fright and delight to audiences of all ages,” said Brad Miska, managing director of Bloody Disgusting. “The wit and wickedness of that three-foot doll encapsulate everything that was great about 80s horror. It was not afraid to be funny. It was not afraid to be scary. Simply put, it was not afraid of anything.”
