We all know Charles Lee Ray, aka Chucky, is one of the most iconic slashers of the 80’s. What he’s missing in stature he makes up for in body count and one-liners, rivaled only by Freddy Kruger in the latter. Syfy and USA hosted a panel for their upcoming show The Legacy of Chucky during this years Comic-Con@Home showcasing the 8-part series and giving a deep look into not just the show itself, but also the seeds from which it was grown. The 15min clip takes clips from the panel and behind the scenes commentary to shape our outlook for the show, ended by a full length trailer for the horror series which is set to debut on Halloween.
While I tend to withhold excitement for these nostalgia based projects, I have to admit that I’m fully onboard when it comes to The Legacy of Chucky at this point.
