Additional InformationThe thesis research of folklore graduate student Helen Lyle (Virginia Madsen) leads her into the urban underworld of Chicago's Cabrini Green housing projects. There the residents are genuinely terrified of Candyman (Tony Todd), a legendary figure with a hook for a hand. Skeptical, she 'summons' him in front of a mirror and discovers with horror that he's real and very deadly. This surprisingly taut horror thriller is based on Clive Barker's THE FORBIDDEN. Barker also executive-produces.

  • Horror Classic for any Horror fan!

    Psychological thriller horror with enough gore for any horror fan to sick their teeth into. If you like a nightmare on elm street, scream or hellraiser.....you'll enjoy candyman. It's shot from a realistic perspective with some very artistic scenes. Tony Todd plays the villian perfectly and his intimidating presence is felt in the tension of the film.
