Season 3 of Syfy’s Chucky series is in the bag. The truncated run of four episodes was cut short due to the writer's and actor's strikes, so as we await the back half of episodes, we spoke with Chucky creator Don Mancini about the Child's Play doll’s dealings in the White House, the cast of victims new and old, the shocking celebrity cameos and, of course, the Chucky kills.

Mancini is the rare horror filmmaker who has stuck with his creation throughout the years. He wrote or co-wrote all seven films in the franchise (which have included Bride of Chucky, Seed of Chucky, Curse of Chucky, Cult of Chucky, and so on and so on) and heads up the current SyFy Chucky series too.

“You have to ground this stuff in something identifiable,” Mancini tells IGN. “It has to be about something. It can't just be a doll saying ‘Fuck’ and knifing people because that would get old.”
