Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaBernard Rose originally conceived a sequel to his 1992 hit Candyman (1992) as not featuring the eponymous character at all but instead continuing to explore the nature of urban horror myths. This was quickly scotched when the producers figured that audiences would show up because they wanted to see Candyman eviscerate his victims.
- GoofsAs Annie's brother falls down the steps, he is obviously replaced by a stuntman with long hair.
Featured review
My Favorite Candyman
I believe that Horror is possibly the most subjective genre in film. Read the comments on the Candyman series, and you will run the gamut from praise to vituperation. I enjoy the Candyman series because of the mythical, haunting quality of it. The director creates a special aura upon the proximity of the Candyman; a crescendo of bees, sudden fear, and inexorable violence. This atmosphere separates Candyman from most other horror films in my mind. We do not simply experience fear; we are drawn into a story of supernatural revenge, played against an innocent beauty whose survival becomes our most sincere desideratum.
All of the "Candyman" elements seem to merge best for me in this excellent installment. I really love Kelly Rowan's portrayal as Candyman's devastated but determined protagonist. She is a compelling actress, and excels in her role as Annie. I find the resolution quite imaginative. Even the little boy who tries to aid Annie has a mystical quality about him. I highly recommend this film to sophisticated horror fans, and anyone who enjoys the melding of mysticism and modern culture.
