Candyman
01:46:13
About
We turn our attention to 1992 and Bernard Rose’s exquisite reimagining of a Clive Barker short story; “Candyman”. A film in which Ardelia Mapp from The Silence of the Lambs realises all her white friends are trouble; John Connor’s foster dad is still a major piece of shit; and we all get seduced by the deep mellifluous voice of Lieutenant Commander Worf’s little brother. Along the way we discuss “The Field Guide To Evil”, the “Fear Street” trilogy and “Haunted”. Watch (or re-watch) to avoid spoilers, and join us.

LeeGood evening and welcome to horror.
LeeI'm Lee.
ChrisI'm Chris.
AdamAnd I'm Adam.
ChrisOh, that that was that was good.
LeeThat's quite pretty.
AdamThank you.
ChrisI don't think you can keep it up for too long though, or this will be a short episode.
AdamYes.
LeeAs well as then chunking and throwing up all over half way through the episode.
AdamThe trouble is it's going to Barry White quite quickly.
AdamNo, I'm not going to cut the part of sophisticated Lady, No, off.
LeeHe's already turned into a Woman. Yeah.
LeeSo, as you can probably tell from Adam's voiceover, we are going to be discussing 1992's Candyman this evening as our main event.
LeeBut before we get too excited, and we get all carried away with ourselves and start talking about Candyman.
LeeChris, what have you been watching in the last fortnight?
ChrisI would love to be able to say something, but I'm going to have to have my bottom spanked here, because not a lot.
LeeYou've been on holiday.
ChrisI'll blame holiday and I was sure I'd come up something, but I just didn't manage to today, so we got back yesterday, late yesterday and yeah.
ChrisSo, there you go.
ChrisThat that was a an easy one.
LeeThat's fine.
LeeI'm sure I'll make up for it next time.
LeeI think myself and Adam have got a shit to get, actually by the end of it, so yeah.
LeeWe'll let you off this week, Chris, without a thrashing.
ChrisOkay, get a couple of yeah, a couple of those a year.
LeeOh yeah, I think we all need a couple of passes where you're like, I just haven't had time in the fortnight.
LeeIt sounds like a long time.
ChrisYeah, sometimes it flies by.
LeeYeah, absolutely.
LeeAdam.
AdamIt's also it's that lovely thing of how much of a how much of a thing you're in where it's like,
AdamDo you know what, life's been pretty dreck for about for the past fortnight.
AdamAnd it's like, yeah, what what I really fancied watching was someone skinning people alive, you know?
AdamJust fucking offset that.
LeeSo on that note, what have you been watching Adam since we were last?
AdamWell, I've got I've got one one that relates to
Adamour good friends, the not for everyone podcast.
LeeOh!
Adamin that I've finally on on their recommendation, I've finally got around to watching Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia.
LeeOh, I've heard you on that episode, but I've not seen it.
AdamOh yeah, no, it's a proper like 70s crime drama Sam Peckinpah.
AdamAnd it's one of those it's one of those films where you're like, this genuinely feels like it doesn't have any of the sort of jazziness or sort of sensationalist sort of elements of later crime films where it's like,
AdamHey, look at these cool hitmen.
AdamOr, you know, look, look, they talk about Madonna.
AdamJust before they go and shoot people.
LeeHa ha.
AdamThis this just genuinely feels like, oh no, look, this is this is what happens when grown-ups do horrible things.
LeeThat sounds horrible.
AdamIt's it is, I mean it's it's one of the best fucking concepts I've ever heard for film is it's basically a mob boss puts a hit out on this guy, but the bloke actually got killed in a car accident.
AdamSo someone works out, oh well, if I go and dig the body up and cut the head off,
AdamI take that to him and I get paid even though I didn't kill the guy.
AdamIt's not, you know what I mean, but it's sort of, yeah, and the sort of cross the sort of cross betrayals and things like that.
AdamThat go hand in hand with that sort of thing.
AdamI mean, the only thing is is that, I mean, it's one of those films as well, that lovely 70s thing where literally everyone is clearly wankered because they are drinking from the bottle the whole time.
AdamAnd and also just it's just so happens that the main guy can outshoot anyone.
AdamSo it's sort of, you know, there there is a sort of like, you were playing piano in a bar, weren't you?
AdamBut you have but you have just seen off like the mafia and a whole village full of disgruntled people and you know, a whole.
AdamBut that's that's beside the point, but it is genuinely, you know.
AdamIt was a genuinely good film.
AdamAnd also one of those ones that just sticks with you.
AdamBecause basically, I mean, it costs him a lot more than just going and digging up the the head and it's a real like it does feel like someone unraveling before your eyes of like, actually, this is a pretty nasty thing to have to go and do and it just gets worse and it clearly fucks you up as you go.
AdamSo it's, yeah.
AdamI'm not sure if it's one for you, Lee, but it's definitely, yeah, I yeah.
AdamAnd I'm like I say, it's one of those ones that I've always heard about and never got around to watching.
AdamBut because because Adam and Bobby did it, I thought, well, I'll
AdamAnd it turned up on Arrow sale for seven quid.
AdamSo I thought I'll have a dose, I'll have a dose of that in full Blu-ray.
AdamSo, yeah.
AdamBut yeah, no.
AdamThat's that's a good one.
AdamBut the the main thing I watched, which kind of feels like a lot more films than I actually watched.
Adamis I've watched the Field Guide to Evil, which is a modern it's like, I think it's 2018.
AdamSo it's only a few years old now.
Adambut it was basically the concept is it's an anthology film where they get.
ChrisOh, we know anthologies.
ChrisWe know how good they are.
LeeLove them.
AdamWell, it's it's in that it's in that sort of vein that the anthology seems to be much more these days where it's like, it's actually it's a collection of short films.
AdamI you've got several different directors to do it rather than one guiding overall hand.
Adamso you don't really get a wrap-around story, but you do get a like there's a a big book which is the Field Guide to Evil.
AdamAnd basically the concept is you've they've got eight well, it's actually nine directors because two of them are Ajo who direct together.
Adambut so you've got like eight filmmakers and they do eight films based on the folklore.
AdamEach one's based on the folklore of the their country of origin.
Chris
ChrisThat's interesting.
AdamAnd so you so you've got stuff you've got stuff from Austria, Germany,
Adamthere's yeah, Poland, India,
AdamTurkey, the US and.
AdamI'm trying to think where else.
Adambut I mean mainly sort of a bit European-centric, but yeah.
AdamHungary.
Adambut they're all really but it the filmmakers, you've got Can Evrenol who did Baskin.
AdamAnd the woman who directed the Lure, the directors of Goodnight Mommy, I've still goodnight Mommy, I've still not seen it, but it's the that was a film that was sort of like.
AdamAnd that's the that's the other thing that this has given me is that the people I don't know.
AdamIt's really made me want to see some other stuff of theirs because it's sort of like, right, okay, that was a that was a good fucking 20 minutes.
AdamAnd I'd be impressed to see what you're going to do as a full length.
ChrisYeah.
Adambut I mean like each each story's like each story's like about 20 minutes long.
AdamSo it's that good thing of if something's not quite clicking for you, you get something else shortly.
AdamAnd also again, it brings me back to that thing where I'm always saying about with horror films where it with horror films where it's like adaptations and stuff like that, with this, essentially, you just get the money shot of each piece.
AdamSo rather than sitting there and it's like, you know, watching an hour and a half where it's like, oh, well, they'll tell you what the folklore is and then you wait around for it to happen and then it and then it occurs and that's the end of it or it's it occurs and then there's 15, 20 minutes of farting around about what the aftermath was.
AdamThis is just literally, here's the grim bits, crack on.
AdamYou know, so.
Adambut yeah, there's and but there's there's one which is.
AdamThere's I mean, there's there's a couple that weren't all that, but then still good enough looking that I sort of like.
Adamyou know, that I didn't I didn't mind that.
Adambut there's a couple there's a guy one of the directors got the story for Greece.
Adamwhich is like which looks like paintings from the front covers of fantasy like fantasy novels.
LeeOh, nice.
AdamIt's like incredible and I'm assuming it's, you know, it's like natural scenery or whatever like that, but it's it just is so near hallucinogenic and it's basically the story of a celebration that a goblin tries to infiltrate.
AdamBut all these drunk great blokes just basically kidnapped the goblin and forced him to bleed wine for them.
Adamwith a with a with a particularly slipknot looking goblin as well, with a big nose.
AdamWhich is quite it's it's quite good in the way because it's that sort of thing where you're kind of.
AdamYou would think it was a crappy effect except in this it kind of it's like, oh no.
AdamThat that's what this goblin looks like a crappy effect.
AdamIf you see what I mean.
AdamBecause everything else looked so fucking stunning that it's like,
AdamNo, I know that this isn't I know his nose is not wobbling because they didn't care.
AdamOr they couldn't get it right.
AdamI know that they've thought, wouldn't it be great if he has a wobbly big old wobbly knob nose and sort of stuff like that.
Adamthere's a couple of stories that a lot of it, especially like the European stuff, really evokes the witch.
AdamSo it's that kind of a feeling, you know, that sort of like bleak forestry and that's that's another reason.
AdamI think you'd like it, Lee.
AdamThere's a lot of like that sort of the witch, Hansel and Gretel, that hallucinatory forest dreamlike sort of element to it.
Adamparticularly like the German and Austrian stories.
Adamand the final story in it, which is Peter Strickland's story and he's he directed the Barian sound studio.
AdamAnd.
AdamIt is genuinely the best modern silent film I have ever seen.
AdamIn that it feels exactly like a silent film and it has, you know, like.
AdamLike title cards for the speech and everything, so it follows all the.
AdamIt follows all the patterns of an old silent film, but he's not tried to like put noise on the thing to make it look old or anything else like that.
AdamIt's in color, everything looks the tints, it's beautifully rendered and everything and really sort of quite grim fairy tale sort of.
AdamTim Burton without the quirk sort of looking sort of thing.
AdamAnd, yeah.
AdamI mean, that's just amazing.
AdamThe the and also, yeah, just out of nowhere.
AdamI'm I'm watching it and I said I'm saying, that is Reece Shearsmith, isn't it?
AdamAnd Reece Shearsmith does the voiceover of one of the stories.
AdamThere's like a story set in a story set in India like sort of colonial India, so it's all black and white.
AdamAnd at the start of it, there's some live action, but it keeps going to just sort of montages of old photographs.
AdamAnd I don't to me, they look like they've just got some old photographs.
LeeYeah.
AdamAnd use them to sort of like illustrate the point.
AdamSo, you know.
AdamBut overall, it's one of those things where and I've seen I've seen sort of like reviews online.
AdamAnd a lot of people seem to be giving it a bit of a sort of, meh.
AdamAnd it's like,
Adamwell, the nature of these sort of things is going to be up and down when you've got like different directors and stuff like that.
AdamBut just as a proper you know, just as an interesting little exercise, it's really good.
AdamPlus apart from the the USA story is the story of the Melonheads.
AdamBut it's all genuine folklore from around the world and none of it was stuff I knew.
AdamThey haven't gone for obvious.
ChrisIt's interesting.
Adamstuff.
AdamYou know, it's not like, you know, it's not like, I mean even like with the US thing, they've gone with the Melonheads, which is a fairly obscure.
ChrisYeah, I've not heard of that before.
AdamIt's like it's almost like redneck folklore that is, I suppose you could describe it where it's basically these deformed cannibal children that live in the backwoods of America.
Adambut yeah, there's yeah, there's like a German possessing spirit that makes you ravenously hungry.
Adamthere's the the Turkish one like Can Evrenol's one, which is probably which is probably one of the better ones.
AdamAnd it's probably the the most sort of from start to finish scary.
Chris
Adamwhich it kind of almost reminds me of it really evokes Drag Me to Hell.
AdamThere's a lot of ghosts and scary old women.
Adamso.
AdamBut it's that but that's a a a creature from Turkish folklore that is a a gin of
Adamchildbirth of like of post-childbirth depression.
AdamEssentially.
AdamIt's postpartum depression as a creature.
Chris
AdamAs a thing that affects you and it's sort of, but again, like I say, all of these things are brand new to me.
AdamAnd I just love I love folklore and that kind of thing anyway.
AdamWhich kind of feeds very much into tonight's main feature.
AdamBut I think that yeah, just just on that level where it's like,
Adamif nothing else, you'll watch it and you'll be like, I'd like to know more about that.
LeeYeah.
ChrisYeah.
AdamOr I want to read up on that.
AdamBecause they are all, you know, nothing, I don't think anything for it is you know, nothing's fictional, it's all based on real, I mean it's a term I use quite a lot, real folklore, but you know what I mean?
AdamIt's like it's actual actual folklore.
AdamSo.
Adam
AdamI'd definitely recommend it, I think I'd definitely recommend it to you guys.
AdamI don't know whether we'd cover it or whether just see you can see it.
AdamBecause I think more than anything, it just even on a very basic ground level.
AdamThere might be a couple of dodgy effects, particularly some of the Melonhead stuff.
Adam
AdamBut in general, it just looks stunning, it's really well shot.
AdamAnd it like I say, it veers towards the theatrical, it veers towards the fantastical in its approach.
AdamAnd yeah, yeah, it's definitely definitely one to seek out.
ChrisYeah, sounds great.
LeeExcellent.
AdamAnd that's all the weather.
LeeThank you very much.
LeeI'll put that on my list for for a very soon viewing then.
LeeI'll have to make sure I see that.
Lee
AdamI think, I'm not sure, but I think it's because I've got it on I got I managed to pick up an Italian Blu-ray of it.
Adambut it's I think it's on Shutter.
AdamOr it's on it's on Shutter or Prime.
AdamOne or the other.
AdamI'm.
ChrisYeah, I'm I'm seeing it on Prime.
AdamYeah.
AdamSo, I'm I'm not sure I'm not sure if it's a paid to watch or anything, but I know it's on there.
LeeFantastic.
LeeI shall give that a go, thank you very much.
Leeso I have caught up with parts two and three of Fear Street.
LeeThe new thing.
AdamOh yes, yes.
LeeI know I sort of raved about the first part.
LeeIt it genuinely is better, believe it or not.
AdamOh, cool.
LeeI I've just looked on IMDb and everybody else says the same.
LeeOh, don't say the same.
LeeBut the the rating, so the first part is 6.2 and then 6.8 and then 6.7.
LeeSo yeah, people agree, they sort of, you know.
LeeIt it the the second two are better than the third.
LeeAnd I love the first one.
LeeIt was a really fun, a really fun story in and of itself.
Leeand they did a really good job of shifting it around in the time.
LeeSo the first part I say takes place in 1994.
LeeAnd the soundtrack is so full of it that I've actually gone and bought a load of CDs this week.
LeeI've just bought Smash by the Offspring.
Leeand I bought Dookie by Green Day, there wasn't any Green Day on it, but it just put me back in that old mindset of 1994, so good.
Leeyeah, so I've gone back and bought loads of stuff I used to listen to.
Lee
LeeYeah, the second one is a slasher.
LeeAnd the third one is set back in, as you were saying, Adam.
Leeit's that, you know, during the witch hunts and stuff, it's set in 1666.
Leeand they tie all the all the stories all tie together in one big piece.
ChrisExcellent.
LeeBut it sort of tells the story backwards and then brings it.
AdamOh, cool.
Leeit's really good.
LeeI really enjoyed it.
Leevery different, but really clever.
LeeI said the only thing I didn't like about it and I won't give anything away cuz I know you guys haven't seen it, but for anybody who has, the big heart thing.
LeeI don't know why there was any need for that.
LeeIt was it was like they put it was like you were saying, Adam.
LeeLike all of it, it is fantastical because it's as you can tell from the trailer, this isn't the spoiler.
Leeit's basically a whole town that's cursed because of a witch who was put to death.
Leeand this is how it's kind of affected different ages and different people through the.
Leebut yeah, then they put this really, really fantastical bit in it that doesn't explain anything and actually just I have more questions than if it hadn't been in there and it vaguely annoyed me.
Lee
LeeBut not enough to not enjoy it.
LeeI think I'll definitely go back and rewatch all of these, they're really good.
Lee
LeeYeah, and it's one of those, if you've ever got like a sick day or something where you're just not feeling yourself and you're like, oh, I'm just going to spend the day in bed and I'm not going to do anything.
LeeOr if.
AdamI'm spending the day in bed, I'm feeling myself.
AdamI'll just tell you that now.
LeeSo yeah, or if you've just got a day and you just want a triple movie marathon, they're fairly short, they're all only an hour and 45-ish each, I think.
Lee
LeeYeah, and I I do think I'll go back at some point and watch them all in a day back-to-back and and have.
LeeYeah, an enjoyable time and a shitload of ice cream.
LeeSo.
LeeThat's on my list.
Leeso that was one that I really enjoyed.
Leenow for one that I didn't enjoy so much.
LeeAnd this is the third series of this show.
LeeAnd the first season was all right.
LeeThe second season was awful, the third season is now even worse.
Leeand I'm still watching it.
LeeAnd I'll put it's I've always do it, I'll put it on and I know it's going to make me aggy.
LeeI've got more notes about this than I've got about fucking Candyman.
LeeThat was how annoyed I was about it.
Lee
LeeBut yeah, but this is also Netflix, so, you know.
LeeAlthough I sort of falled over Fear Street a bit.
LeeThis is my counter to it, it's the haunted TV series that they're doing.
Lee
AdamOkay.
LeeAre you aware of this, Adam?
Adamno.
AdamThis isn't this isn't like the this isn't there because obviously they did Haunting of Hill House and then they did Yeah.
AdamThe haunting is it that is not is not connected to those.
AdamIt's not that.
AdamAll right.
AdamOkay.
AdamIn that case, I have no idea.
ChrisReal people sharing.
LeeYeah, yeah, sharing real experiences.
LeeSo basically it's someone who's had a haunting or a particularly traumatic experience and they sit them down in this old scary study and they have all their family and friends around.
LeeAnd they basically tell the story of this horrible thing that happened to them.
Lee
LeeAnd me being me, obviously, I skip all that.
LeeSo like season three, the first one was about somebody grew up in a cult and I was like, yeah, I don't I don't want that.
LeeI want to jump straight into the my house is haunted.
LeeRight?
LeeSo that's what I did.
LeeNow.
LeeThis was set me up from the beginning, I shouldn't have done this.
LeeSo I set up late one night, about 11:0 at night.
LeeJennifer had gone to bed, I was like, do you know what, I'm going to have a couple more beers and then I'm going to go to bed, so I'm just going to put this on.
LeeAnd it was a guy saying like just put it out there.
LeeI know I've said this on the show, but I will reiterate before I lay into people who say they've been haunted, I don't believe in ghosts.
LeeI do believe that when people say they've had experiences, I don't think they're lying.
LeeI think they believe the things they're saying.
LeeI think misidentification.
AdamYeah.
LeeAnd, you know, like we said before, Jennifer and I thought we'd seen a ghost.
ChrisYou could easily, yeah, accept what happened.
LeeYeah.
LeeIf we were believers, that would have been the end of it.
LeeWe saw a ghost.
ChrisYou're happy to stop there.
ChrisYou don't want to try and prove that it isn't.
ChrisYeah.
LeeReally.
LeeBecause you're like, well, I know what I saw and that was what I saw.
LeeWe we would totally taken in by what we saw on on that evening.
Lee
LeeSo that's so that's where I'm coming from.
LeeBut on this, and this is the problem.
LeeIt's things like this.
LeeSo this guy says, we moved into this house and in the barn, and we moved in, it had been empty for a long time and we moved in, and in the barn there were all these scary old photographs.
LeeAnd old newspaper articles about horrible things that happened in the house, including the previous owner who had hung himself in the barn.
LeeSo the previous owner had hung himself in the barn, who bought the fucking newspaper about the article, cut it out and put it in the shed.
LeeWhere did it come from?
LeeWhy are you not asking questions, you pillock?
AdamFucking point.
Lee
LeeThe second one was a girl who got a music box with a locket in it.
LeeAnd every time she wore the locket and opened the music box, a ghost would come and try to strangle her.
LeeAnd, you know, she kept seeing it and it was awful.
LeeAnd then.
AdamOn the box.
LeeAnd then she says, nothing happened because I didn't open the box for a long time.
LeeThen I moved in with an older man who had a younger daughter, and when she opened it, the haunting went to her.
LeeI was like, why the shit do you still own this thing?
LeeI don't know.
LeePut the locket on, open the box, a ghost appears in the mirror and tries to strangle you.
LeeThat box is going on the fire within the next 15 minutes.
LeeI'm not keeping it and taking it when I move house, you stupid pillock.
AdamOr re-gift.
LeeYeah.
AdamMust be someone that working don't like.
LeeAnd then the third one, I only got to watch half before we started recording this evening's one.
Leebut it was it was a a family moved into a house.
LeeAnd it's that thing, this is what annoys me about the show.
LeeIs they make so much of it, I haven't finished this episode and I'm willing to admit that, but basically it it started with a load of people listening to black metal.
LeeAnd wearing a scary mask and sacrificing a cat and all this stuff.
LeeAnd then it goes to the girl actually telling the story.
LeeAnd what she actually said is, the people who moved out, we saw them leaving.
LeeThey didn't seem very happy with us, they seemed very off.
LeeSo therefore, they were definitely weird.
LeeAnd they left some weird shit in the garden.
LeeSo when my mom fell down the stairs, we decided there's definitely a demon cat in the house.
ChrisYeah, makes perfect sense.
ChrisWhat where?
LeeAll this stuff.
LeeThey said.
LeeSo the reason they thought that, the mom fell down the stairs and they said it was a she felt a presence had pushed her.
LeeAnd I was like, it's a brand new house with a rickety old set of stairs that she doesn't know and she's fallen down and broken her ankle.
LeeAnd then the girl says, I saw the demon cat and I tried to kill it and it just disappeared and vanished.
LeeAnd then two days later, I found out I had typhoid and I was dying and my temperature was 108 and I went blind.
LeeAnd it was like.
LeeSo the cat clearly gave her typhoid.
LeeIt wasn't that she was 108 degrees, hallucinating and a that it definitely that a ghost cat has given her typhoid.
LeeBecause the people who are forced to move out to let them into the house, clearly were demon worshippers.
LeeBecause they had a scary mask that they forgot to take with them and left it in the garden.
LeeLike it's just.
LeeSuch.
AdamI'd like to think I'd like to think demon worshiper.
AdamHas take most of that kit with him.
LeeYeah, what that's the other thing, it was like it was the high priest in this flashback wearing the mask.
LeeAnd this guy ripped open the cat and poured the blood all over this naked woman.
LeeAnd he was dancing around in the background.
LeeI was like, oh yeah, and then when they left, what, they just left it in a bin bag with a load of beer cans and left it floating around in the pool.
LeeLike.
LeeIf that's your high priest of your cult's like important thing, I don't think you just move out and leave it floating in the pool with some junk.
AdamI think I think Claire made a very good point that it's or they just bought it to freak you out.
LeeYeah.
AdamFrom a fucking joke shop.
LeeYeah, you're like if you're getting forced out of your house and somebody else can move in, yeah, you're quite right.
LeeYou would, you know, shit in the oven.
LeeOr leave a scary mask in the house.
LeeLike.
LeeOh.
AdamYeah, shit in the oven.
AdamCrashing the carpet.
AdamFish in the back of the telly.
AdamYou know, all the all the stuff.
AdamYeah.
AdamMind you, there was I saw a thing I think it was something Claire showed me where it was just some bin men finding some bin men had found someone had thrown out a ouija board.
AdamAnd they just put, we're keeping this and we're going to put it back in three weeks.
LeeHa ha.
LeeBrilliant.
LeeAbsolutely brilliant.
Leeyes, so I need to stop torturing myself with this.
LeeBecause I just it's not good for my blood pressure.
LeeI get so angry with this show.
LeeYou can't have many left though, can you?
LeeHow many is there?
LeeI think there's five or six, I think there's six in a series or something.
LeeAnd as I say, I I I skip the ones that are like, yeah, I was once nearly killed by a serial killer or yeah, I was part of a cult and that sort of stuff.
LeeBecause it they they don't really appear to me.
LeeI watched the alien ones and the haunting ones.
Lee
LeeYeah, it get really, really aggy about it.
Lee
LeeSo, before I burst a blood vessel.
LeeLet's get on to the this evening's main event, Adam's request.
Leeand quite rightly so.
LeeBecause I think probably spurred by the fact that there is the new remake coming out.
LeeSo we wanted to remind people that there is actually an early good one.
Lee
Adam
AdamWell, I to be honest, the new one that's coming out, I'll we'll get into it.
AdamI quite excited for.
LeeOh.
AdamBecause.
AdamAlthough they've done although they've done the one thing that annoys me, they've called it Candyman.
Lee
AdamWhich.
AdamIt's like Halloween, like the 2018 Halloween.
AdamIt's like,
AdamFind something else, please.
AdamEven if you call it Halloween 2018, I know that's shit, but it rhymes.
ChrisYeah.
AdamAnd at least I'm not going to confuse Google.
AdamLooking for the John Carpenter one and getting that one and vice versa.
AdamSo.
AdamYou know.
AdamApart from that.
AdamThe I will say the new one does actually look.
AdamYeah, well we'll get into it, but it looks pretty like it could be pretty fucking decent.
AdamAnd the main reason, admittedly, was I just kept seeing the fucking trailers for the new one.
AdamAnd they use the theme tune, they use Helen's theme, like the.
ChrisYeah.
ChrisThat's sensible.
AdamYeah.
AdamAnd so it's just been buzzing around my head.
AdamLike a chest full of bees.
AdamAnd this is this is almost exorcism just to get it out because I'm like, I really must watch Candyman just because that music's just been, yeah, just been traipsing around my head for about a month and a half.
AdamSo.
LeeSo, Chris, was this your first viewing of Candyman?
ChrisNot my first viewing.
Chrisbut I did watch it when when did it come out?
Lee92.
Chris92, so I was 12.
ChrisProbably, I probably watched it a few years after it came out, I would think.
ChrisI may have been 15, 16.
ChrisI just I remember it being talked about at school.
ChrisSo it it, you know, in that meta way it had built up a myth around it, being itself, but.
ChrisYeah.
AdamI am the whisperer in the classroom.
ChrisSo.
Chrisyeah, but I I definitely did watch it, but it was very late at night.
ChrisI don't think I watched it again.
ChrisAnd so it was sort of a bit of a dreamlike, you know, memory.
Chrisbut I just remember thinking it was amazing, but it was the concept of saying the name five times because we then did that for the next two years.
ChrisConnor's going to say the name five times in the mirror, you know.
LeeFive times is too many.
LeeThis is this is the.
LeeIt's funny.
LeeWe were doing a quiz recently, my brother for my birthday bought me a book of horror quizzes.
Lee
Leeand it's like 10 questions on each thing and it'll either be a film or a director or an actor, yeah, and we did the Candyman one.
LeeAnd yeah, I I realized how little I remembered it.
LeeBut yeah, the options was how many times you have to say his name.
LeeIs it twice, three times or five times.
ChrisI think everyone would go for three.
LeeYeah.
ChrisSurely.
LeeSurely.
LeeNo, I wouldn't do it five times.
ChrisThat just sounds like a spoof, doesn't it?
LeeYeah.
ChrisBut isn't it to prove, I don't know, like.
ChrisYou know, you're really dedicated if you're going to stand there.
ChrisYeah.
AdamWell, funnily enough, that's what Claire said to me.
AdamShe was like, I think in that sort of in a pissing about way, she was just going, oh, well, I know a very important fact about Candyman that you probably don't know.
AdamAnd I was like, what's that?
AdamAnd she said, if you say his name three times, he appears.
AdamAnd I was like, I think it's five in the film, not to shit on your joke.
