Candyman (2021)

An  artist discovers the truth behind the legend of Candyman.

The recent 'Candyman' is a sequel and not a remake of the first film, not daring to try to change a cult film so loved by horror fans. It has some interesting and original ideas and even somewhat changes the legend, although a glimpse of the new myth was suggested at the end of the first film, when the heroine takes over the morbid role. With a modernized vision, a victimization that's a little more unfair than in the original case, the new Candyman does its job decently and is worth watching.

Director:  Nia DaCosta  
With: Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Teyonah Parris, Nathan Stewart-Jarrett, Colman Domingo

Rating: 8/10
