A much better film than the second one. The setting of the military academy allows the film to adopt a Full Metal Jacket or Heartbreak Ridge angle with Andy at the mercy of drill instructors as well as the psychopathic doll. The acting is a step up as well with Justin Whalin's Andy nowhere near as annoying as whiny Alex Vincent whilst fellow cadet Kristen (Perrey Reeves) gives Andy more to think about than just dolls.

I have now seen all seven of Don Mancini's Child's Play films on Blu-ray and on the whole it's a very good series. The latest two Curse of Chucky (2013) and Cult of Chucky (2017) being the best with 1990's Child's Play 2 comfortably the worst but even that had it's moments.
Wait... you think Child's Play 2 is worse than Seed of Chucky?

Okey-dokey....
