Just subjected my mother to this rant, so now you guys are going to hear it as well:
I've recently been watching (or rewatching in my mother's case) American Horror Story. I had seen parts of various seasons before but not all the way through. I just wanted to clarify that to make the point that I was aware of the general tone and severity of the show. I had seen some comparisons to how Don has gone 'too American Horror' in the show, and I understood the comparison but didn't realise how damn close.
I'm towards the end of Season 6 right now (Roanoke), and I have noticed blatant parallels between events on AHS and how the legacy characters have been treated in Chucky.
1. Nica's dismemberment (and arguably her treatment in Cult as well). In Asylum there is the Nazi Doctor guy (I can't remember his name) Who repeatedly sexually assaulted patients, much like Foley did to Nica in Cult of Chucky, and also imprisoned and dismembered a patient. Once again, a strong parallel to Tiffany dismembering and imprisoning Nica.
2. Andy's imprisonment with the colonel in Season 2. Where he was imprisoned and cannibalised over the span of a year, similar to how the Polk family in Roanoke imprisoned people before eating parts of their body.
3. Kyle losing her ear in the explosion. Whilst the way the ear was lost is different in this example, it just feel like the significance of two characters losing their left ear and there being a certain focus on it is strange. There was the close-up shot of Kyle as she showed the prosthetic to Nica and Glenda in Chucky whilst there is a close-up shot Lee's ear being put in a jar in Roanoke.
Now, here's the point I want to make, the issue I have is not necessarily what happens on its own, but in the context of the different shows.
American Horror Story, especially now, is so well known that you have a degree of understanding when it comes to what to expect. You know it's going to be dark, and you also know that it will impact the characters, and no one is safe because it's a different story every season. You know there will be the trauma and the effects of that because it's not something that has to be continued in the next season.
However, with Chucky, this isn't the case. This is a continuous story that has been going for over 35 years now. Plus, the series was never intended to be that dark. There is supposed to be comedy, and it's supposed to be camp, and if dark shit happens, it usually happens to minor characters or additional antagonists.
That's why this level of horror doesn't work. Not only is it the fact that this is happening to legacy characters who fans have grown to love and root for over years, it's the fact that the actual trauma they have experienced is just glossed over or played off basically as a joke.
It just doesn't work, and it's one of the main issues I have with the show as a whole. It also feels kinda disrespectful that the legacy characters who have been surving this stuff for years suffer with this whilst the teens who seem to NEVER LEARN from their experiences manage to escape similar fates every time (because honestly, we all know the teens will be out of those dolls by the end of 4x01 if the show gets renewed)

So there is no reason for Kyle to be claiming that he is in love with Nica

Okay, so Andy messaging the triplets to check on them and Nica before him and Nica are dating. The triplets immediately take this photo of Nica and Andy starts to malfunction
Tumblr media
It took Andy a full 10 minutes to respond because he felt like he was having heart palpitations from how beautiful Nica looked in that picture.

Those qualities Nica has were clearly obvious, he doesn't understand why he's suddenly being asked that

It's just an observation, he just won't tell Kyle that because she'll try and turn it into something else

If there is one thing about Nica, it's that she's determined as hell. Andy gets so stressed but knows there is no talking her out of it 😂
