Encyclopedic overview
Child's Play 3 is a 1991 American supernatural slasher film written by Don Mancini and directed by Jack Bender. Brad Dourif reprises his role as Chucky while new cast members include Justin Whalin, Perrey Reeves, and Jeremy Sylvers. It serves as a sequel to Child's Play 2 (1990) and the third mainline installment in the Child's Play franchise.
It was executive-produced by David Kirschner, who produced the first two Child's Play films. Although released only nine months after Child's Play 2, the story takes place eight years following the events of that film, and one month before the events of Bride of Chucky (which was made seven years later). The film follows Andy Barclay (Whalin) now 16, enrolling at Kent Military School. Andy is unknowingly followed by a revived Chucky (Dourif), who sets his sight on a younger kid cadet Ronald Tyler (Sylvers).
