I'm just going to come out and say it. Candyman is the best slasher movie. THERE!

Michael Mitchell
not a slasher movie, more of a ghost story
Cameron Ramirez
I wish more ghosts would rock fly coats like that guy.
Also, what's up with black people and ghosts? You can count the number of black ghosts in media on one hand.
Camden Myers
was candy man a real ghost that fed off of urban rumors about him?
or was he a brought to life by urban legend and only though he was a ghost?
Lucas Edwards
Didn't he want to fuck all of his descendants? How were they all white women?
Hunter Stewart
>we will never get an Clive Barker's ABARAT movie series
James Price
Watched this a while ago, pretty good
Alexander Gonzalez
the sequels are poop.
Nolan Edwards
Love for this nigga and Virginia Madsen. I watched this when I was 11 and to this day I still haven't done the whole mirror/say his name 5x thing.
Also, the fact that they rused Philip Glass to score this thing was brilliant.
Bentley Butler
I started saying candyman at a job for lulz and some lady freaked out tellin' me to stop. the fear is rea. what if I had tried to summon beetlejuice?
Cooper Wood
Simply put: nig nogs dont afraid of anything
Julian Torres
Asked her old she was when she watched it. There's something about this movie which seems to stay with people who watched it when they were young. I think the notion of being able to summon him so easily and with something as ubiquitous as a mirror is good nightmare fuel for kids. I know the whole "Bloody Mary" myth scared the shit out of me when I was a kid too.
Jayden Smith
Tony Todd is based.
Benjamin White
the movie is good, the theme is GOAT
Aaron Murphy
bump
Angel Barnes
Probably the last "scary" movie I saw. That ending is nightmare fuel.
Jeremiah Bennett
Nigs don't fuck with ghost shit. They've learned they're the first to die in most horror films, so it's best to avoid hauntings, scary legends, etc.
Lucas Sanchez
>that fucking midlife crisis cumdumpster
and he didn't even wait 2 weeks to move her in!
Parker Clark

Asher Rogers
>[n-word]
excellent thread guys but can we cool it with the n bombs
Daniel Foster
>blacks arent the first to die in most horror movies
James Gomez
The soundtrack made candyman.
Isaiah Morgan
>movie establishes that he only kills people who says his name five times
>doesn't kill someone who says his name
>kills everyone around her instead
I vaguely recall them trying to explain it, but I can only remember it feeling like a total asspull.
Jayden Torres
>she was writing her college thesis on debunking local urban myths
>he exists because of people's belief in him
he needed to make an example of her, prove himself so that his existence wasn't threatened, hence the framing her/dog killing/baby napping entire rest of the movie
Jaxon Rogers
its almost as if urban legends arent the truth
Noah Morris
That's fucking stupid though. What kind of urban legend ghost breaks its MO just to prove a point?
Kayden Scott
that trope went out with the 1980s and you aren't black enough to answer for black people in horror movies
Henry Nguyen
SMELLIN
SMEEELLLLINNNN
Henry Morales
>grew up in the same neighborhood as Cabrini Green
>was terrified of it BEFORE I saw this movie and made me think about a ghost haunting it
Not even once
William Flores
she was also apparently the spitting image of the woman he died for, but take that with a grain of salt since he's an urban legend and probably wasn't real in the first place :/. I dunno man

James Lee
good thing they tore it down years back or I'd still be afraid to walk within three blocks of it
Easton Parker
probably because they were the same thing
Aaron Gutierrez
Can confirm
Candyman actually scared me as a kid and I'd probably not say it into the mirror willingly right now unless I had to
Even though I'm logical the emotional memory remains
I know of others who feel this way, as in afraid of saying Candyman cause of seeing it as kids
Lucas Mitchell
it was always you
Benjamin Powell
test
Henry Perez
Caleb Young
One of my favorite scenes from any horror movie

Jacob Nelson
Some people don't play with voodoo shit, user.
Henry Miller
Came in here to post this. GOAT Ost.
Jacob Lopez
does he eat her candy
Anthony Butler
no, she kills him before being half burned and stung to death by bees
Justin Parker
so it's like that Black Mirror episode
Oliver Moore
It literally has the most kino opening credits sequence ever not even memeing
Colton Rogers
I'm going to take the opportunity to remind you all Rollerball is kino.
