Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaProduction was brought back to the Cabrini Green neighborhood where Candyman (1992) was filmed. Though the high-rise buildings have long been demolished, the Rowhouses still exist.
- GoofsHaley reads from the program describing Say My Name at the Night Driver gallery. The program reads 'In foreground, Helen Lyle: a white, privileged, graduate student whose obsession with her research into a [sic] an urban legend called, "Candyman," led to her bizarre self-emulation in the housing projects courtyard in the early 90's.' The word "emulation" is confused with "immolation", which means death by fire.

Detective Lipez: Who are you?
Anthony McCoy: I am the writing on the walls. I am the sweet smell of blood on the street. The buzz that echoes in the alleyways. They will say I shed innocent blood. You are far from innocent, but they will say you were. That's all that matters.

Featured review
I was super excited for the return of Candyman but unfortunately was met with this cinematic piece of garbage. This is not a horror film. Nor was it suspenseful or well..... entertaining. It is very corny however. There is basically no storyline or character development. You will never be submerged into the plot due to lack of a real one. The use of Tony Todd was absolutely disrespectful. Tony Todd is Candyman. You would never try to replace Robert Englund as Freddy Kreuger so why do it to Mr. Todd? All the other 1 star reviews are on point. And Candymans catchphrase "Be My Victim" wasn't used at all.
