Candyman (2021)

A sequel to the horror film Candyman (1992) that returns to the now-gentrified Chicago neighborhood where the legend began.

 

Here's my problem with Candyman.  You have a great premise for a movie and a character that we're all terrified of, but for some reason no one can get his story correct or make a movie that actually works.  It's truly a shame.

 

FUN FACT:  William Burke is seen reading the Clive Barker novel "Weaveworld". Barker created the character of the Candyman in his short story "The Forbidden."
