Gentle Glen (Billy Boyd) is a ventriloquist's dummy, the offspring of evil doll Chucky (Brad Dourif) and his doll bride (Jennifer Tilly), both of whom are now deceased. When the orphaned Glen hears that a film is being made about his parents, he goes to Hollywood and resurrects them in an attempt to get to know them better. He is horrified when Chucky and his lover embark on a new killing spree, and Chucky is equally horrified that his son has no taste for evil.

Critics Consensus

Give Seed of Chucky credit for embracing the increasing absurdity of the franchise -- even if the end results really aren't all that funny or entertaining.

Calling Seed of Chucky silly is an understatement. However, it's also one of the most radical studio films of the aughts: a distillation of Camp; a piece about performance; and, with both, a self-aware tale of gender.

Austin Chronicle

Installment No. 5 in the once-moribund Child's Play franchise isn't quite the roller coaster from hell that the series' last outing was, but it's surely the most engaging, and, dare I say, emotionally honest.

Rated: 3/5

By far, the most shocking carnage is Tilly carving up her persona. What a doll.

Mancini took a big swing by going full comedy, playing into the absurdity of killer dolls, while touching on poignant topics like gender identity, addiction, and acceptance.

Rated: 3.5/5

This fifth movie in the Child's Play series is considered one of the worst, but I like it for its full meta-absurdity.

Rated: 3/4

As Chucky and Tiffany figure out what it means to be a parent, Seed of Chucky lets Glen/Glenda navigate what it is to be themselves.

Seed is without a doubt the worst Chucky movie this far—the writing doesn't make a lick of sense, and so it seems kind of forced in order to make a quick buck. I knew this when I revisited this entry to the series from years and years past, but I still found myself positively surprised by many of Chucky and Tiffy's witty one-liners and even some of the kills. This movie went so far as to get a genuine laugh or two out of me (no, not the super-obvious Stanley Kubrick one...), so even though Seed of Chucky is trash, I guess I would have to recommend even this lowliest of the Chucky saga to fans and supernatural slasher casuals alike. A very special mention has to go to the SFX team: To my understanding, the facial expressions (among all other puppet effects) of Chucky et al. were all done with animatronics and puppetry, which in the year of viewing 2025 seems incredible with all the cheap-looking CGI that's been floating around for AGES.

Esse filme não tem nada a ver com o Chucky, só o Chucky costurado que vale a pena

Who would’ve thought when Chucky was first bought onto our screens in the 80s, that we would one day get his seed in a sequel. Entertaining but not for the good horror reasons.
