At Least Tell Me I'm Pretty...

Due to the writer's and actor's strike this week part II of AHS: Delicate premiered this past Wednesday (with the best episode of the season thus far) and coming at ya this Wednesday April 10th is part II of Chucky's third season.

Well I really love the TV version of Chucky it's off the wall and it works spectacularly!

I was never a big fan of the Chucky film series. Fact: I only saw the first Child's Play and turned off 2 & 3 while trying to view them at home. I didn't see another one until Bride of Chucky which was hilarious!

That is what the series does it capitalizes on what makes Chucky entertaining and fun. It does not attempt to make him scary, because let's all collectively admit it , none of us is scared of a three foot tall talking doll!!!

Hump Day & Chill

Tiffany Valentine

It's that time again, or as I like to call it purgatory. You know the time between Christmas and New Year's Eve that is less than a week so you really don't want to commit to anything and most likely have the time off. So let's act accordingly Minions and Hump Day & Chill with one Ms. Tiffany Valentine!

"Yes" the notorious Tiffany from Chucky fame is here to school us in the ways of Hump Day & Chill with a martini in one hand (gin straight up two olives for me) and a cigarette in the other (hard pass on the cancer stick here.)

Tiffany is played to perfection by Jennifer Tilly in the Chucky film series and the just wrapped second half of season three of Chucky the TV Series.

While she doesn't think were alone now, the character of Tiffany was a much needed boost to Chucky. Personally I find the TV Series better than the actual movies.

So there you have it and aren't you happy?!?! Get down with Ms. Valentine and Hump Day & Chill before it's too late!!!

Hump Day & Chill

The Coming Back Soon!!!
Jennifer Tilly

Some things are a constant in our lives, like breathing, water & Chucky! "Yes" Minions today we are going to Hump Day & Chill to Chucky coming back for season 3...

As If! It wouldn't, but unlike the announcement of season 2 of Chucky happening immediately after season 1 ended they took their sweet time in announcing the third season.

Most likely to build hype around it, OK, that's exactly why they did it!!!

Chucky will be ready to slash in the fall of 2023, ahhhhhh, just in time for Halloween yet again, perfection!!!

My take? I personally love the TV series although last season had a few big episode misfires. For the most part it's one of the best shows going. Also, for me, it's way better than any of the Child's Play movies.

So until then, it's time to Hump Day & Chill with visions of Chucky slashing in our heads and then some...

Hump Day & Chill

Somebody's Watching Me
Devon Sawa & Chucky

I don't know about you, but the scene in last week's episode of Chucky where Devon Sawa's Father Bryce gets excommunicated from his chosen profession and then removes his shirt was 100% swoon worthy.

Thus by the grace of, um the powers that be, that being me, we are going to Hump Day & Chill to Devon and behold his masculine glory, amen! 

Mr. Sawa really has cornered the humpy, hunky, manly forty something dude market. Seriously Minions it takes much more than taking off your shirt to crank my shaft and yet when Devon did, well my shaft was definitely well oiled.

Yeah, there's something about Devon and it's the gift that keeps on giving. Hey tis' the season after all.

Tonight is the Season 2 finale of Chucky and "Yes" I will be tuning in to bear witness, hallelujah!!!

You didn't think a horror person like myself was not tuning into one of the best representations of what the genre can do and be did you?!?! 

If you did I can't help what happens next to you. Sorry, not sorry...

Only 9 more days until Halloween!!!

Hump Day & Chill

I Think We're Alone Now
Jennifer Tilly & Chucky

Alright Minions with it being the most wonderful time of the year you must have some idea of what we are going to Hump Day & Chill with today, no?

Well if you think about it, but not too much. What awesome TV series based on a homicidal doll debuts it's second season tonight at 9pm on USA and SyFy Networks?

It's everyone's favorite red head Chucky!!!

Here he is with looking quite chummy with his co-star Jennifer Tilly who plays Tiffany Valentine, will she be yours? Fingers crossed and butcher knives drawn she won't (consider that a VD gift.)

The first season of Chucky was amazing, so unexpectedly inventive. The reviews for season two say it this season is even better than the first. I'm not sure how they could top the first, equal it, yeah, but topping it?! Wow! This is going to be a Hump Day & Chill Halloween treat!!!

He Always Comes Back!

There's never such a thing as too much Chucky. "Yes" the day prior to tonight's season one finale the announcement has been made that the doll with the killer smile is coming back for a second season.

This should come as no surprise to anyone given the shows killer (pun intended) ratings that have grown with the passing weeks.

I am quite excited to see how they wrap this season and what direction the show will be headed into the next.

While I know the series could not exist without the Child's Play movies, which to me are hit and miss affairs. The TV series is WAY better than all of them combined. 

A Plethora Of Cucky's
& Jennifer Tilly

It truly has earned it's certified fresh rating of 90% on Rotten Tomatoes.

Tonight's finale is an hour and a half as opposed to the usual hour. "Yes" more Chucky for your Bucky (groan) hey someone had to say it, and that someone was...

Hump Day & Chill

Never Look Back
Devon Sawa 

Hello Minions it's the last Hump Day & Chill of October and the one just before Halloween. Thus you know what that means don't you? Another Horror Hunk, naturally.

With the Chucky TV series on USA/SyFy being the hot ticket this horror season what better object of our attention than one of it's stars, former child actor Devon Sawa. I wasn't aware of him until Chucky TBH, when I did see him in the premiere episode one word came to mind: Stud!

Devon can scare the pants off of me (literally) anytime he wants. 

Here's a photo of Mr. Sawa shirtless for good measure (Yummy!)

Well now it's really that time again to Hump Day & Chill. All treat and no trick today.

Boo!

Daughter Of Chucky: Fiona Dourif

Fiona Dourif

Hey all of you Chucky Fans no doubt you've heard about the latest and one of the best films in the series "Curse of Chucky".

Of course it is not lost on you guys that the female lead bears the same last name as the voice of "Chucky" Brad Dourif.

Yes, we have the actual "Daughter of Chucky" here for an exclusive Halloween interview - Fiona Dourif!

Fiona actually carries more horror cred than being the female lead in the current "Chucky" movie as well as being his daughter, she has also appeared as "Casey" one of the Witches in Marnie's Coven on "True Blood" and was in Paul Thomas Anderson's Scientology based story "The Master".

You are all in for a treat, hit it Fiona....Happy Halloween!

MS: Hi Fiona. Wow! It's four o'clock straight up!

FD: I am punctual! (laughs)

MS: I like that! Your father used to come into a video store I worked in when I first moved to Los Angeles, when I still was a little on the "star struck" side and I used to get so excited that "Chucky" was in the house.

FD: Oh God! How funny!

MS: I'm surprised this entry into the "Chucky" series went straight to video with all of the great reviews it has gotten.

FD: We weren't really sure it was going to take that direction at first.

MS: The word is it's more scary, than funny like the earlier entries.

FD: Yeah, that was the mission a return to horror.

MS: I've seen you in other things you have done, you are really good,  did they decide to cast you as the lead because of the "Chucky Connection"?

FD: You know I have no idea. I can tell you what Don Mancini (the writer/director) told me. I went up for the role of the bitchy sister, then I got a call three days later, saying I wasn't right for it, but Don thought I might be right for the lead, prepare that. I went in and I met Don, and you know, I didn't think it went that well to be honest. Then I got called back and the studio wanted to make sure I was soft and likable enough. My manager had me go back in with big eyelashes and a flower dress - and then I got it, I was really surprised. Don told me later that they had conflicting theories about me being "Chucky's Kid" they thought it might be confusing, but he thought it might be confusing in a surprising way, it's really an open ended question. I don't think the story in the movie says I'm his kid at all.

MS: Are you a horror fan yourself?

FD: Well, I wasn't one forever and when I was cast in this my boyfriend at the time was a horror writer and told me "You need to figure out what you are doing." So, I went back and watched a lot of the old stuff and have become a fan of the genre. A great horror film is the best, most primal stuff you can watch.

MS: The original "Halloween" is the first horror film my Dad took me to and it scared the shit out of me.

FD: Yeah, totally! My feeling is good writing is good writing, Don is a good writer.

Fiona at the Season 4 "True Blood" Premiere

MS: He is. Let's talk about another horror credit you have you played "Casey" a Witch in Marnie's coven on season four of...

FD: From "True Blood", yeah (laughs) that was really fun! Wait, I'm sorry I'm actually at a restaurant with the "Chucky" doll, because I am taking him to a friend's bar for the next couple of days. What happened while I was talking was the waiter just came up and tried to hit "Chucky" in the back. (laughs) It's probably the most expensive thing I own and I'm like "No"!

MS: Jeeze doesn't he know he's not real? (laughs) You were in "The Master" which was controversial as it is based around the beliefs of Scientology.

FD: Paul Thomas Anderson is one of my favorite Directors. I think "Magnolia" is one of the great American Masterpieces. I shot a lot of things most of it got cut out, I ended basically not being in the movie, that happened to so many people that were in that movie. The final cut is pretty much like a skeleton of what the original movie was. It 's OK, I got upset, but I got over it.

MS: What's your take on Scientology?

FD: I am secular, but I have a respect for organized religion. Do whatever you want Scientologists, I don't really think it's a cult, just like I don't think being Mormon is a cult, it's people making beliefs and rituals in their lives. To each his own. I was actually audited by them to prepare for the role, and that was kind of interesting and they never stopped calling me after which was kind of annoying.

MS: Tell everyone, what are you going to be for Halloween?

FD: I still haven't figured it out. God, I don't know yet, maybe I will be a houseplant! (laughs)

The Horror: Does Author M.E. Franco Do The Monster Mash?

M.E. Franco "I don't want to be buried in Pet Semetary"

Fellow Horror lover and author, M.E. Franco is baaaaack, our nerd fest from last Halloween proved so popular, I had to have her back for round two of geeky questions about Halloween!

M.E. is the author of the popular paranormal romance/urban fantasy "Dion" series of books "Where Will You Run" and "Where Will You Hide".

Ready to do this again M.E.? Let's shall we?

MS: OK, since "American Horror Story: Coven" is almost here what famous witch would you                   want to be?

MF: I'd love to be Samantha from Bewitched. Not only was she hot, she could whip up a mean meatloaf. Not to mention being able to use magic to clean the house. That would come in handy

Raith, one of the "Men of Dion"

MS: What tag line would you have?

MF: Don't let the cute fool you.

MS: So we all know Chucky had a bride, what famous horror icon's bride would you want to be?

MF: Being a vampire fan, I'd want to be the bride of Dracula (hot Dracula though, not creepy Dracula. Definitely not sparkly Dracula)

MS: If you were trapped in a house with Michael Myer's and Fred Phelps who would you kill first?

MF: I think Michael Myer's and I would be fighting over which one of us would get to kill Fred, so I'd have to kill him first to get Fred all to myself.

MS: Whose your "Walking Dead" crush?

MF: I'm one of those crazy Daryl fan girls

MS: Choose the famous dead person you would like to most resurrect, Jesus doesn't count since allegedly he has already had the privilege.

MF: I miss George Carlin. I'd love to have him back.

Where Will You Hide: Book Two of the Dion Series\

MS: What character in your books is closest to who you are?

MF: Mari Lucas, the homicide detective from my paranormal Dion series.

MS: Do you ever think "What would Satan do"?

MF: Any time I want to indulge in chocolate.

MS: Which is scarier, a Haunted House or a Haunted Forrest?

MF: That's a tough one. I'd have to go with Haunted House because of the confined spaces and nasty basements.

MS: So, the moment of truth, do you do the Monster Mash?

MF: Absolutely!
