Is it fair to make the assessment that Seed, failed a what it attempted to do ? It kind of bothers me as a fan being so vocal about my distain for Seed when it's obviously very personal to Don, ( his first directing entry in a series he created) but I just can't help but wonder what Don was thinking when he decidedly alienated the fanbase by turnign the series on it's head and subsiquently changing genres.
Do any of the fans remember thinking "these movies need more comedy ?. I mean fine, some horror fans say the premiss of a doll is inherently comedic, but I and many others dissagree, hence the popularity of the movies. The art of taking something seemingly innocent and making it dangerous is no different from making a clown into a Killer. How many quotes do we have to see froma dults saying they were scard to death of chucky growing up or they can't sit in their kids room, this series had nothing to prove. Unfortunatley now it does.
I don't know, it was just kind of shocking how seemingly out of touch the series creator seemed to be with the fans of the series. I don't remember thinking, these movies need more Jennifer Tilly either. Jennifer tilly playing Jennifer Tilly playing tiffany while being stalked by tiffany, a cameo by debbie carrington, tiffanys stunt double, no Ed Gale ? he's been doubling for chuckysince Child's play 1, he get's no recognition. Don's idolization with Jeniffer tilly is somewhat annoying, I don't know why he chose to make the child's play series his love letter to his favorite hag. And I love how there was absolutley no mention of Brad nor who ever was suppsoed to be playing Chucky in the film with in a film "Chucky goes Pyscho".
Here's a Q n A session on Seed with Jennifer, Don, the limo driver and producer, Debbie Lee Carrington and Steve West, and producer Corey Sienega. from 2010, ironically after the stigma of Seed was well established. Plus some unkown little factoids about the filming of seed. Does this film have any redeeming qualitites or am I being too synical ? I know somewhat all the works to take do a film, and I appreciate his work, it just the effort went so left. What do you guys think ?
