A sequel to the horror film Candyman (1992) that returns to the now-gentrified Chicago neighborhood where the legend began.
30 years after Tony Todd terrorised us in 1992’s Candyman, Nia Dacosta takes us back to the now gentrified Cabrini Green as artist Anthony (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II) and his partner Brianna (Teyonah Parris) move into a swanky new loft apartment that sits in stark contrast to the ghettos of the past. It’s almost as if someone wanted to wipe the slate clean and erase The Green’s past; as if there was something (or someone) they wanted to forget about…
“Candyman…“
