and who could forget candyman, the man who apears behind you if you say his name 5 times into a mirror. quite a scary movie, untill you try it yourself and nothing happens. kinda a disapointment smile

TedO
Yeah, but the very first time you do it after watching the movie... a pretty big relief if you ask me stick out tongue

BackFire349
yep.

kruegerKid
I hear you guys, I thought the movie was great but the sequels sucked.

TedO
I never saw the sequels... after that comment I'm glad I didn't

Evil Dead
Oh god did the sequels suck.............but yeah........Candyman was pretty a-ok as a horror movie.........I think othe low budget movies like Wishmaster (and it's sequels) were better but Candyman had a good concept............

kruegerKid
I agree Wishmaster was much better and got even better in each sequel, Candyman got worse with each sequel.

Candyman always kinda creeped me out because it made me think of being a kid and trying to convince each other to stand in front of the mirror saying "Bloody Mary"

I enjoyed the movies, but not enough to ever buy them.

Candyman was to be filmed in Clive Barker's and my home town of...Liverpool. Birthplace of the Beatles and John Wilkes Booth.

I think the original Candyman is overrated for what it is. I rented "Candyman 2: Farewell to the Flesh" and decided quickly that the 3rd installment would have to be one of the worst movies ever made, because the other 2 fell flat.

Just another one of those decent idea/bad movie deals.

I never finished watching candyman. I started, but I didnt get into it.

Hello! The first "Candyman"movie is one of my favourite movies: the story and the whole concept are interesting and really good.
The third part ("Day of the Dead"wink was okay, but the second was really bad in my view.

Did anybody of you notice that you can see a big microphone in the second movie of this series? Not a big mistake by the crew, but it was fun to watch.

ladygrim
i didnt like candyman as it was to creepy with the link thing between him and 'bloody mary

I really liked Candyman. Tony Todd is freakin' awesome!

Question: The graphics with the bees coming out of his mouth were really good, so were they fake bees or was his head fake or what?

Wendigo
I thought the first was real good,I seen the second It was terrible,so bad that I am not going to bother seeing the third shifty

seever333
no they were real bees, but they were just born... for the first couple of days after bees are born, they cant sting.....i forget where i heard that, but thats why

unless you do it and you get Tony Todd standing behind you "so, what do you want....hey i had to take the f*ckin bus over here, what do you want. hey f*ck you, you know how hard it is to get through traffic this time of day? you make me sick, b*tch"

(anyone wanna hazzard a guess at which tv show i stole that from, come on, its easy)

Definitley one of my favorites! supposedly based on a short story by Barker. Does anyone know which one it is, and from which collection?

EsteemedLeader
the funny part is, i dont think i ever finished saying it 5 times into the mirror. i think i still owe it 2...

kmcdude
Me and a few mates did it right on midnight and nothing happened same with Bloody mary

Wasn't that from Family Guy they did it with big bird or something? Any way I've tried it too but nothing happened until my brother tried and the mirror broke but I think it was just him.

mutilated_body
if you ask me, id say he got the idea from the whole Bloody Mary thing

kmcdude
I agree

paulwalkersgirl

Tony Todd has such an amazing voice, with fantastic elements of eerieness and sophistication. The same can be said for David Keith, the voice for HBO's Spawn animated series. Come to think of it, wasn't Tony Todd in Tom Savini's 1991 remake of Night of the Living Dead?

evildeaddesigns
I THOUGHT THE IDEA IS GREAT AND SOME OF THE SCENES TOO, BUT OVER ALL, I FELT THAT IT COULD BE MUCH BETTER...
