Trivia: Clive Barker originally had no involvement with the film. He was brought in during post-production to help fix the film, evidently quipping, "Alright, now let's make it into a 'Hellraiser' film!" after seeing a rough cut.

Trivia: During the sex scene with JP and Sandy, JP aggressively holding Sandy's breasts wasn't scripted or planned. The actress decided she didn't want to bare her breasts on camera, so she had the actor playing JP hold them whenever she was on camera.

Trivia: The film was inspired by director/co-writer/star Vera Drew being commissioned to create a fan edit of the 2019 film "Joker." While working on the fan-edit, she began to think about her own life and ended up coming up with the idea of re-contextualizing "Batman" characters in order to tell a semi auto-biographical story about what she refers to as the "Holy Trinity" - gender, comedy, and mommy issues.

TedStixon

Trivia: Was pulled from TIFF after a single showing because director/co-writer/star Vera Drew got a warning letter from an "unnamed" massive media conglomerate. (Widely believed to be Warner Bros./Discovery.) Eventually the movie was able to be released legally because, as a parody, its content falls squarely under fair-use laws.

Trivia: Chucky's body in this film is the longest one he's inhabited. His body from this film gets stitched back together and is the same body he uses in "Bride of Chucky." "Seed of Chucky" mentions that it's the same body from "Bride." "Curse of Chucky" reveals that he's still using the same body, albeit with "prosthetics" covering his scars. And the doll's head is also seen still alive in "Cult of Chucky." The TV show implies it has finally been destroyed... 30 years after "Child's Play 3" came out.

Trivia: Nica's night-robe was inspired by the lead character in the movie The Fury, which is one of director Don Mancini's favourite films.

TedStixon

Trivia: The interior of the house wasn't real, but was rather a full-scale set built in a studio.

TedStixon

Trivia: Jill's eyeball burning up was added in using CGI in post-production, as they worried her death wasn't gory enough.

TedStixon

Trivia: Officer Stanton being killed by Tiffany is an almost exact duplicate of the opening scene of "Bride of Chucky." The dialogue he says on the phone is exactly the same dialogue that Officer Bailey says. Tiffany dispatches both men in the same way. Chucky is inside a black plastic bag in both scenes, and both scenes even have a steely blue due to the lighting.

TedStixon

Trivia: The first film in the franchise where Chucky (or a Chucky duplicate) is not killed during the climax. Up until this point, every film followed the classic slasher trope of the killer dying and being resurrected in the next movie. (Technically, a Chucky is shot but not killed in a post-credits scene).

TedStixon

Trivia: Summer H. Howell, the little girl who plays Alice, had to be filmed separately from the "stitched up Chucky" in the final scene because she was too scared of his creepy, scarred face. Her lines and Chucky's lines were shot separately, and then simple split-screen effects were used to put them together.

Trivia: Chucky voice actor Brad Dourif suggested his daughter Fiona to series creator Don Mancini for a role. She originally auditioned for the part of Barb, but Mancini felt she would be a perfect lead. However, he then became incredibly apprehensive to cast her, as he worried it might feel too much like stunt-casting. He also worried it would seem like he was trying to, as he put it, "kiss Brad's ass by casting his daughter." Mancini eventually went with his gut feeling and cast her.

TedStixon

Trivia: The lead character is played by Fiona Dourif, daughter of Chucky voice-actor Brad Dourif. She has jokingly referred to herself as the "real 'Seed of Chucky'", and admitted that she exploited the fact that her father voiced Chucky to get dates with cute boys in high school, since it made her one of the "cool kids." But as happy as she was to be part of the franchise, her father Brad was even happier - he often proclaimed that Fiona's participation was the most exciting part of the film for him.

Goin' to the Chapel - S2-E7

Trivia: The book on exorcisms is attributed to an author named "Richard Darling." This is a slightly altered version of Rick Little Darling, the name of the property master who works on the series.

TedStixon

Trivia: Chucky's famous/infamous line "Don't fuck with the Chuck!", was actually written by famed comedy writer Bruce Vilanch. Director Jack Bender is friends with Vilanch and asked him for some ideas for potential Chucky one-liners during pre-production.

There Will Be Blood - S3-E7

Trivia: This episode features the very first scene in which Brad Dourif (the voice of Chucky) got to work with one of the animatronic Chucky dolls in-person. It also features Dourif's first time playing the role of Chucky in human form in over ten years.

Season 1 generally

Trivia: Cooper/The Ghoul makes a comment about being "sidetracked by bullshit every goddamn time" at one point during the first season. This is a reference to the video games, which feature dozens and dozens of side-quests that players can complete, and often can distract the player from the main narrative.

TedStixon

Trivia: Kathleen Turner almost didn't take the lead role because she finds gory movies too disturbing. At first she said she would only be in the film if the violence was portrayed cartoonishly and unrealistically. Director John Waters convinced her that the violence needed to be portrayed very realistically, because that would be even funnier... the absurdity of so much twisted violence coming out of a seemingly perfect sitcom-style housewife. Turner eventually agreed with Waters and signed on.

TedStixon

Trivia: Director John Waters considers this the best film (and his personal favorite) that he's ever made.

TedStixon

Trivia: The cover art appears to incorrectly show Max as a "cyborg" dog with a Terminator-like inner skeleton. However, the film explains that he's simply a genetically engineered dog with extra abilities, and thus not robotic in any way.
