Chucky Meets Frankenstein (1996)

IMDB says this came out in 2023, everyone else says 1996. No matter: After being chased down by an angry mob, the Frankenstein Monster is resurrected by Chucky. When we’re not watching a band practice, we’re seeing Chucky and Frankenstein’s greatest creation just walloping on people. Mostly, that effect is achieved by throwing the Chucky doll at people and Bela Lugosi wrestling with an octopus-style acting.

Director Tom Zarzecki also plays the host, Count Cat, a “horror host catpire from the CATpathian Mountains in the 13th dimensional land of Trithulania.” The film functions half as a horror-comedy and half as a promotional vehicle for Zarzecki’s musical interests. The tonal whiplash between a monster attack and a garage band session is what gives it that public access TV energy.
