Review of Candyman

Candyman (2020)
8/10
Brilliantly done, but a little too over political

Warning: Spoilers
Spoiler alert. Was pleasantly suprised by this sequel to the original. The storyline and recap from the original was absolutley fantastic in this. The acting was spot on and theres no cheap scares here either. The candyman in this is actually creepier and scarier than the original. I did feel that there was just maybe too much focus on the political side of things though and very short scenes were candyman was actually there meaning there was less horror and much more political messaging. I know that was probably intentional but as a horror fan I would of prefered if it was the other way around. It was brilliant how some parts were based on Carbini green again. All in all way better than Candyman 2 and 3, defo was worth waiting for and love the new concepts behind him it really was scary.
