SOURCE-Scream Factory Blu Ray
I'm surprised I haven't cover this film before. Been a fan of it since it came out and also love the short story it is based on. So when I saw the Blu Ray cheap at the local Walmart I grabbed it.
Virgina Madson and a friend are investigating a urban legend at the Cabrini Green projects in Chicago,Cabrini Green is also when the 70s show Good Times was set. Seems if you look in a mirror and say Candyman 3 times he will appear and kill you.
There is so much to love about this film. The acting is great. Madson is really good as the lead. Then you got the Tony Todd. He just IS Candyman. Every appearance of Candyman make my skin crawl.
Yep this is one of the few horror films made after the 70s that actually scares me some. It think it is cause of how well the film is made. The score plus the acting and the way the film is shot just gets under my skin.
This blu is loaded with extras. You get two cuts of the film. The theatrical cut we have all seen for decades. Then a slightly longer uncut version. Add in a few commentaries and a pile of extras and you get a hell of a deal on this Blu Ray.
Candyman gets a A.
