- Summary
-
- Oscar® winner Jordan Peele and filmmaker Nia DaCosta unleash a fresh take on the blood-chilling urban legend: Candyman. For decades, the housing projects of Chicago's Cabrini-Green were terrorized by a ghost story about a supernatural, hook handed killer. In present day, an artist (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II) begins to explore the macabre history of Candyman, not knowing it would unravel his sanity and unleash a terrifying wave of violence that puts him on a collision course with destiny
- "Candyman is a work held together by thoughtful choices, and it has a lot to say."--Time Magazine
- "There's no mistaking what "Candyman" is trying to say. Even so, the loud messages don't overwhelm the plot or characters because director DaCosta, in only her second feature, has made such an exciting, fun movie."--New York Post
- "Acute and skillfully made, "Candyman" is also pointedly political."--Boston Globe
