I got my shipping notification yesterday. FedEx tracking shows they haven't received the package yet. I actually watched all the Chucky movies when 1-3 came to UHD Blu-ray. I had seen the first couple years ago, but hadn't seen any of the others. Wish I had known then 4-7 was coming to UHD so soon. I would have waited to watch them.
I can't wait to get mine in. That gorgeous box is scheduled to come in tomorrow from FedEx. I went with the movies, Slipcovers, posters and sticker. Seed of Chucky I enjoy because it was the first Chucky movie I saw in theaters and had a blast. I already got the frames for the posters and also took out the Bubba ho Tep posters from the other frames and put them back in their tube because I rather have Chucky in the frame instead of Bubba Shit tep😂. Im kind of on a Chucky kick because I just purchased my First Chucky doll for the Collection from Spirit Halloween
I recently rewatched all the Chucky movies in one sitting, and I get people have their favorites but the movies really tie in together neatly and there is not a single one of them I like less than others, the TV show is still my fave though
"I feel like I could order off of Amazon and it would look better than the way SF sends it to me" No Ken, just no. I've ordered CE's from Amazon before and had to return almost all of them because the slipcover was jacked up beyond belief.
Features wise, Scream Factory has gotten pretty cheap over the past years. With the 1-3 4K Features, they didn't put a lot of money or effort into. Mostly Zoom call, crappy quality interviews. But the quality of those movies in 4K was really good. It's a shame that they started having some other team do the features. I prefer the people who put love into the older ones, like Sean Clark. All of the features listed on these covers are all the same stuff from the previous releases. They didn't list the few new things they added for Seed, Curse, and Cult. Bride didn't get anything new, sadly.
Great unboxing. Really only want these for the amazing slipcover art - so it can match the art of 2 and 3. Bride is really the only one I want and/or need. Hoping for a major sale. I just need to wait...
Mine has shipped too from Shout and should arrive tomorrow, man I’m super excited cuz that’s an awesome, Curse is underrated imo and Cult was fine, I only think Seed is the worst, but I love Bride of Chucky. Every poster is going on my wall lol cuz I’m a huge Chucky fan.
The alternate covers for bride,seed,curse,and cult look surprisingly epic (the alternate cover for seed of Chucky is my favorite despite how much of a disaster the film is)
@@midlevelmedia yeah especially how scream factory's alternate posters for the child's play films hits harder than the main theatrical posters of the films
Honestly I just miss Scream Factory’s older collector’s edition releases. New artwork with slipcover and reversible cover art with theatrical poster on the other side and also a poster. This whole multiple slipcover pins posters lobby cards stickers is just ridiculous to me.
Here’s my ranking of the chucky franchise worst to best. This list might be a little controversial and I’m also including the remake and the 2 seasons of chucky. 10: seed of chucky 9: cult of chucky 8: chucky season 1 7: child’s play 3 6: chucky season 2 5: curse of chucky 4: bride of chucky 3: child’s play remake 2: child’s play 2 1: child’s play (1988)
@@midlevelmedia if I’m being honest the only real bad chucky movie out of the franchise is seed of chucky in my opinion. Seed of chucky is unwatchable while the other one’s are okay to fantastic.
Regarding the Special Features: it’s very possible that the Writers Strike affected Don Mancini’s participation in the extras. One of the rules of the strike is that writers can’t promote any of their completed works in any way shape or form. The Chucky 4Ks were announced on May 1st 2023, the Writers Strike started on May 2nd 2023. The reason I bring this up is that when MVD recently announced their Blu-Ray release for “Hail Caesar” (1994) on Facebook, they specifically cited the ongoing Actors & Writers Strikes are the reason why the extras were minimal.
Oh God, very good point!! Man that sucks if that’s why, though!! All of these special features do appear to be all carryovers, no new ones at all, so I’m willing to bet your theory here is correct… only other possibility would’ve been if any had been filmed before the strike began or something, then those could’ve still been fair game, as they would’ve been filmed prior to those rules going into effect… but of course, we see now that there aren’t any new ones, so apparently not, sadly. But what a shame if the strike truly is what caused the bare bones special features on these releases, especially considering how amazing last year’s special features were. In comparison with those, only Seed comes as close! (But again, all are old carryovers from the DVD release 🤷🏻♂️). One silver lining is that 1-3 never really had *any* special features on past releases, so it was nice to finally have at least some for those last year/before the strike, and at least we still have the original special features from the DVDs/Blu-Rays of Bride thru Cult here on the new 4Ks👍
I'm just ordered curse and cult I hate seed and bride but I got the first 3 last year. I barely ever order from scream factory I got these at Amazon and the next two also amazon. Nothing beats the Halloween 1-8 i watch them faithfully and Michael is my Favorite Slasher by far. I wish we could get the Fridays and Nightmare on elm streets. All they did was the crappy Friday part 1 which was a complete Halloween rip off. So I'm rooting for scream factory to get the rights because I don't see paramount doing them although they would sell like hotcakes . It's wierd I got the scream factory Friday blu ray box set so I know they can get those rights back for a 4k release unless now paramount wants to do it. But scream would get the better features probably and get new scans of the master with some Dolby Vision and hopefully Atmos and as for Nightmare on elm street , wes Cravens estate is making it hard for anyone to touch them. But if they won't do them the fan fare is there for both ... Fans go nuts for Halloween and of course we got them first and of my over 420 4ks they are my favorite.
Awesome unboxing, Ken!! FedEx tells me mine is coming in tomorrow 🤞 One note about Curse of Chucky having the Unrated Cut on the 4K: if I had to guess, (and I’ll be careful how I say this, so I don’t spoil it for anyone who has yet to see these awesome films😅), it’s probably because there’s a “certain scene” with a “certain important returning character” who has a cameo at the end in the unrated cut of Curse which directly affects Cult/the TV series 😁👍 Edit: Also, I wonder if the upcoming Arrow releases of these films on 4K will have different special features?🤔 I assume they’ll be identical transfers, just different packaging, and maybe different features. I was quite surprised at how few Bride had (and the wording on the back of the case saying just “new 4K ‘master’” rather than “new 4K scan of the OCN” kinda concerns me a little😅but it’ll probably be fine!)
On scream factory’s website it says “new 4K scan of the original camera negative” for bride and seed and “master” for curse and cult. Chances are they just shortened the wording for convenience
It most likely means that the last two had a 2K DI and they upscaled it and added HDR and that is now the new 4K "master". The upside: It'll still look better than ever before. That's the disadvantage of digital filmmaking (either starting from shooting or starting in post production) right there: There are no ultra high resolution negatives to go back to or it's too expensive because the movies weren't edited with them.
Their Customer Survive is Terrible! 2 of my Slipcovers were damaged and they’re refusing to replace them! Great release but they don’t care about their customers concerns one bit!oh Oh and the Remake of. Child’s play is owned by 20th Century Studios means A 4k is most likely never Going to Happen!
Bride is the best chucky movie and curse is the 4th best
I was anxious about the potential off-gassing lol
I forgot to mention that, but yeah, no gas this time!
Getting the same set tomorrow. Thanks for doing an unboxing to hold me over.

So they've finally started coming in. I really hope mine gets here this week.
I just ordered mine yesterday and it's already scheduled for Delivery tomorrow
@@ryanmccormick8161wow that’s an awesome turnaround! 😁👍
That's awesome Ken you got different slipcovers for those Chucky movies nice 👍👍🎃🎃
I recently rewatched all the Chucky movies in one sitting, and I get people have their favorites but the movies really tie in together neatly and there is not a single one of them I like less than others, the TV show is still my fave though
1 cp2
2 cp1
3 BOC

No Ken, just no. I've ordered CE's from Amazon before and had to return almost all of them because the slipcover was jacked up beyond belief.
Lol I guess my Weird Science slipcover will be bashed and dinged when it arrives next week Amazons packaging is so shit
Great video man. I do agree I rather chucky be more scary than comedy.
Can’t wait for my copies to get here. Bride is gonna look gorgeous in 4K UHD 😍
Dope unboxing. I'll hold out on this set see if there's a major sale down the road.
The first trilogy had a big sale earlier this year .
There’s also supposedly a big box set coming soon by arrow on 4k sometime this year
So excited to get these in a few weeks
Cool Chucky releases
Chucky Extravaganza!!! I love it! Great unboxing man!
Hope you get yours soon!
I just saw the remake of childs play i thought it was good i know a lot of people did not like it . Thanks for the video .
For Bride of Chucky, let’s hope there’s a chance to have a Universal Studios Hollywood & Florida bumper at the very end of the movie.
I checked the closing and there is nothing after the end credits.

Hoping to pick all 7 Chucky films up on 4K at some point but the prices of them right now are just too much

Still waiting on mine. Said they shipped yesterday

Just heard Prey is coming to 4K Oct. 3rd.
Mine just came in from FedEx today, same box set as yours but sadly since I'm working both my jobs I have yet to be able to open it up

10: seed of chucky
9: cult of chucky
8: chucky season 1

6: chucky season 2
5: curse of chucky
4: bride of chucky
3: child’s play remake
2: child’s play 2
1: child’s play (1988)
Only thing controversial I see is your low placement of CP3. Otherwise everything else seems pretty reasonable.

Great unboxing video 🔥 would totally buy those bride of Chucky posters from you, I definitely need those!
That is a badass set. At $223 OMG expensive for four movies 🍿 Hoping it comes down in price.
You seemed like you were second guessing this purchase the entire time lol 😂
Nah I'm all in on the CHUCK!!! 😂

Wait Arrow is releasing Chucky? Can’t find info on it.. Any link?
Arrow is not releasing Chucky
@@midlevelmedia Kind of relieved to hear that, actually! Guess those rumors really were just a joke for their threads account, haha 😂 👍
Awesome ❤
I got mine at a special store last Friday Seed of chucky and bride of chucky. Iam not into Cult of chuckh and curse of chucky
Does anybody know if the child’s play movies still come with slipcovers??? I’m not bothered about extra slipcovers.
What do you do with the slip cover
Are these region B for europe too
Their Customer Survive is Terrible! 2 of my Slipcovers were damaged and they’re refusing to replace them! Great release but they don’t care about their customers concerns one bit!oh Oh and the Remake of. Child’s play is owned by 20th Century Studios means A 4k is most likely never Going to Happen!
Good point on that!
Enough of making the same thing, chuky movies.
