Series creator/writer Don Mancini returns to the director's chair for the fifth sequel this fall. 

Moviehole is reporting that in lieu of the long-gestating reboot of the entire CHILD'S PLAY saga, Don Mancini will get underway on a DTV sequel entitled CURSE OF CHUCKY this September, with plans to the bring the killer doll back to his scarier roots. 

Here's the plot as described, "Chucky arrives to wreck havoc within a family that’s regrouped for a funeral. In the wake of her mother’s passing, a young woman – in a wheelchair since birth – is forced to put up with her sister, brother-in-law, niece and their nanny as they say their goodbyes to mother. When people start turning up dead, the fearless Nica discovers the culprit might be a “strange doll” she was sent a couple of days earlier."

The site reveals a lack of Tiffany alongside the nastier tone and kills, apparently disregarding BRIDE and SEED and picking up after CHILD'S PLAY 3. Of course, the essential Brad Dourif is to return.
