Candyman (1992)
Directed by Bernard Rose
Quick Hit
Candyman hits like a supernatural dread machineāseductive, tragic, and leaves a bad taste on purpose.
Full Take
Candyman leans hard into supernatural horror energy, and Bernard Rose keeps the tone seductive without letting the movie drift. The best parts are the confidence and control: it takes its time, sets the trap, then slams the door. This is the kind of horror that lingers after the credits.
