Candyman w/The Jolly Leftist
The original Candyman film spawned numerous sequels, all of which fell flat and were not true to the original. Enter the new era of Candyman was ushered in by Director Nia DeCosta and writer Jordan Peele. The movie acts as a direct sequel to the OG Candyman film and does a great job of making it so you didn't need to see it to understand the new one. Horror films should be viewed through a leftist and marxist lense, and this film is no different. There are class, race and other issues that are glaring once you look past the gore and jump scares. I'm joined by three-peat guest Emlie - The Jolly Leftist - who lends are expert eye for Horror films.
