Curse of Chucky, the sixth installment in the popular horror franchise, was released direct-to-video on October 8, 2013. The film was written and directed by Don Mancini, who created the original Child's Play series in 1988. Curse of Chucky serves as both a reboot and a sequel to the franchise, as it ignores the events of the previous two films, Bride of Chucky and Seed of Chucky. The film centers around the infamous possessed doll named Chucky, as he terrorizes a family who has recently received a mysterious package containing the doll. Curse of Chucky received generally positive reviews from critics, with many praising Mancini's return to the franchise's horror roots. The film also marked a return to the franchise's darker tone, after the more comedic and self-referential entries in the series.
The premiere of USA Network and SYFY’s Chucky became one of the most watched premieres of the year for new tv shows. The episode drew in over 4 million viewers in its first week, according to The Wrap.
Sure, you could always just buy Curse Of Chucky on Blu-Ray separately, but for fans of the series, Universal has packaged all six Chucky films, including Mancini s latest curse, in one convenient collection. From deleted scenes to gag reels, audio commentaries to a tour inside Alterian, the studio famed for Chucky s intricate puppeteering, Chucky Complete 7-Movie Collection is a fitting tribute to that by-now iconic Devil Doll.
The film also marked a return to the franchise's darker tone, after the more comedic and self-referential entries in the series. Overall, Curse of Chucky became available to audiences in October 2013, and continues to be a favorite among horror fans..

2013 – the year of Chucky. Not only did Charles Lee Ray terrorize viewers in a brand new, well received sequel, Don Mancini’s Curse Of Chucky, but celebrating his 25 years of slaughtering, harassing, and insulting, Universal has released Chucky: The Complete Collection limited edition Blu-Ray/DVD. Sure, you could always just buy Curse Of Chucky on Blu-Ray separately, but for fans of the series, Universal has packaged all six Chucky films, including Mancini’s latest curse, in one convenient collection. Hell, if you don’t own any of them and are intrigued by Curse of Chucky, might as well buy them all together and have a proper marathon – which might have been what I did.
The best part about owning every Chucky film is watching the transformation Mancini’s franchise goes through over the years. Child’s Play starts out as the most straight-forward, simplistic horror possible. Charles Lee Ray’s (Brad Dourif) backstory is established.
