I like how he says “Candyman ain’t a he, he’s the whole hive” implying that there isn’t one Candyman. Obviously it’s talking about how the Candyman chooses a new victim to fill his role to keep the legend going.
@@Question-Log mmmm. I was definitely trying to understand that part. But what threw me off is how they said “the whole hive” and then instantly showed a bunch of cops. With this being a primarily black cast, I thought they were trying to do ANOTHER worn out social commentary on the police brutality schpeel
It's referring to demonic possession/influence. Remember "Legion" in the Bible? It's a subject that has recently been used more and more frequently within Hollywood/entertainment (Movies like The Conjuring, Billie Eilish and Kendrick Lamar music vids, etc etc) The purpose is to numb people to realization that the devil truly does strive to demonically attack through any means/media possible. Good news is that if you've been saved by obeying the Gospel through repentance, confessing Christ as your Savior and being baptized for the remission of your sins, you can be protected from the devils flaming arrows and covered by the blood of Jesus.

When I was a kid when I saw this(I was born in 89), THIS was the movie I remember that scared me the most. Not Halloween, not Friday the 13th, not Nightmare on Elm street. Nah, the original Candyman movie scared the shit out of me 😂😂😂
I'm not religious nor spiritual or even believe in ghosts but aint no way I'd ever roll the dice when it comes to summoning shit. Edit:Ima do it to get rid of that irrational fear. If I die I die.
Funny, I once saw Tony Todd (the original Candyman) at several dive bars (Poison Girl, Cecil's) in Houston having a tipple minding his own business, and everyone that recognized him was calling him Candyman. I can tell he was annoyed but gracious enough to chat up with everyone who says hello. Cool bloke though.
I AM SO EXCITED FOR THIS!!!! I also love how they used the original actor of candyman too. This shows they respect and love the franchise. Also the update story looks great!
Ya, it fucked me up. But it had a very unique style and direction, if this movie is just your average slasher flick, it isn't going to live up to the original at all. The fact that the writer went for the easy and topical choice of ultra racist white cops hurting poor innocent black men might suggest they were going for low hanging fruit and aren't capable of creating a masterpiece like the original. Working in racism is fine, but doing it in a way which looks lazy suggests the rest of it will be lazy as well.
I think the ghost of Kyiv did a great job in this movie. They put him in a self defense situation to which the candyman prevailed. Truly brave and inspiring.
Excited for this But Mixed on how they switched up the origin, but we'll see glad Tony Todd is BACK! EDIT just saw it and I really like how they adjusted and modified the origin for this one
I have mixed feelings too I didn't think they would take this route. Because the route they're taking it's kind of similar what's happening today. No offense
Agree about the change in origin. I think the origin brought a lot more depth to the character. Hopefully they can some how make it work, but a sketchy dude giving kids candy sounds like lazy writing in my opinion.
Anyone else realize it’s the same lady who played Anthony’s mother in the first one? I’ll never forget her telling the story of hearing her neighbor get killed. That really sent chills
It’s weird how before we didn’t really know the origin of candyman just knew that he was and he was a bad guy, based off of the origins. Now he was a good guy coming out of the wall with a hook in his hand just trying to innocently give a child a piece of candy and the real monster was the white police. The child’s scream was what doomed the candy man. He was then brutally murdered by the police.
I have a theory that the guy giving out candy to the kids isn’t connected to Candyman at all, he’s just a weirdo and people start calling him Candyman because of what he did, but no one knows that by calling him that, it gives the original Candyman myth power, allowing him to return
@@tintinismybelgian I was thinking the guy that gets shot in this would just be some weird guy putting razors in candy to hurt kids, then after getting dubbed Candyman that would give the original spirit enough power to come back and kill again but after researching a bit more I think the guy giving out candy is going to be part of the hive or a different iteration of his origin (like how a lot of myths have different aspects in them depending on who tells you it)
The intent, in my opinion, stands in a bit of an accurate representation of urban mythology. If you look at any myth, there is more than one version of it and has changed over the course of time. The same character And yet not, the same story yet different, thus holding to the idea of Candyman being more than just a singular individual.
What people seem to forget is why he’s so connected to the Candyman story is because he was the baby that Candyman was trying to take with him in the first Candyman movie
"The whole damn hive" line speaks volumes, we're not only getting Daniel and Helen but a whole crew of vengeful spirits. I'm looking forward to this next month
But why did they change how he died?? That was the entire point in the original.. in the 1800s he fell in love with a white girl, she loved him, and the racist towns people covered him with honey and he was stung to death by bees.. it's a sad and bullshit statement.. to make him now be beaten to death by cops. Because candy man was an actual innocent.. not a multi felon dope addict who died of a fyntenal overdose.
Wtf? You missed the whole point, what they are saying is anybody that died under fucked up circumstances and were innocent can become their own legend if mentioned enough. More or less there wasn't just one Candyman but a "Whole Hive", Daniel Robitaille was the 1st and Og Candyman but he created a congregation to live on and continue his legacy
The first trailer is honestly scarier, but I really like the aesthetic being shown so far. And it’s great that Tony Todd will return as the title character & they’ll expand the mythos of Candyman and how he infects the minds after and before the original film
It’s not Candyman without Tony Todd so thank god they have the sense to bring him back. The guy just oozes menace, one short scene in the first Final Destination film and he stole the whole film.
So finally I just got a chance to watch this beautifully made film,I've seen all the others back In the day and I watched intently to see what will happen next in my own words it was great! But it was what was playing as the credits were rolling that caught my 👀...in the beginning of the movie there were little stick shadow puppets,so as credits rolled the little paper shadow puppets were back,I immediately noticed the Emmett Till story,and a story about a little boy who was sent to death by electric chair, which made me wanna know the story,so I looked it up and I j wanna say thanks for the shadow puppets and RIP George Stinney🕊️
For people who don’t understand: this movie takes place 25-30 years after the original. Baby Anthony has grown up… Helen saved him the first movie… as far as Candymans death from the original.. surely they will explain
I don’t want to sound white but I’m white and I love how many black actors are in this movie! It makes it so deservedly special! I love the cast, every single actor is just on point! So looking forward to watching this yall! 🙌🏻
@@Fallout4277 Nope, I haven't. The closest I've come is watching a Cinema Snob review of it a couple of years ago. In either case, if the film-makers of this version go in a new direction, it could be a different interpretation of the spiritual/metaphysical entity.
You're spot on Gagi! Tony Todd's presence was the best part of the original! I'm trusting Jordan Peele to understand that and utilize him properly in this film. Fingers crossed!!
To put everyone’s mind at ease about the titular character this time round. Tony Todd will be back as the original Candyman in some capacity but they're focusing more on expanding the mythos into something called The Hive so that there are multiple Candymen throughout the movie.
Welcome to the kill count where we tally the victims in all our favorite horror movies. I’m James A Janisse and today we will be looking at Candyman the 2021 reboot…….
I think everyone is getting caught up on the scene in the trailer missing the fact that the actor they show giving out candy isn’t the real actor who played candyman. I think it will serve as a plot theme to show how the story/urban legend gets twisted with time and how the truth has been forgotten making the real candyman even more mad. Just my thoughts.
He isn't just a he, he's the whole damn hive meaning he made several candymans to continue on his legacy. He made a hive of vengeful spirits under his name. He trying to reclaim Anthony again and put him under his legacy aswell
A lot of people seem to be confused. Candyman is similar to Freddy where they need people to believe in them. In the first film Helen was doing a thesis on urban legends. The thing about Urban Legends is they change constantly but keeping the similar focus. So maybe the story of the guy told was an urban legend. Also remember in the first film Helen did find a bunch of razor blades in candy that was never explained. In this film I think that’s what Anthony is also going to be is trying to find the true story. Some of you seem displeased with the police aspect and race commentary when in reality. Candyman has always had commentary on race and poverty. In the first film when they catch the fake Candyman Helen says “they’ve been looking for this guy for a while but one white woman gets hurt and they shut the entire building down to find him”. In the 2nd film the cop was majorly incompetent. In the 3rd film there was a super racist and predatory cop so this is nothing new.
We need a director’s cut asap, they left so much on the cutting floor. 1)Helen being in the movie 2)Anthony having the shakes yelling 3)Tony Todd voiceovers
@@seanpasttrip795 can’t really provoke something that’s happening in real time. Was it a little on the nose? Some can argue maybe, especially the way he was killed by the cops. The film itself sheds light to what people such as myself can go through, especially those that live in poor communities
@@tyree556 Interesting point tyree556. But being from a minority background myself and experiencing some very difficult times I feel such films just drags us back again and again stirring up more hatred. Racism is racism and will be so forever. Todays society is blinkered, so I will defend any race, people just feel sorry for themselves all the bloody time, and I'm bored with it all. Grow up humanity.
@@manuelirvingzarate How the hell do you know? The only marketing we got for that movie was like 2 really short teasers and a couple of pictures. Nonetheless, I’m still excited for this movie
I just watched the original the other day and noticed that too! Now im wondering if the man telling the story is "Jake". The little boy who lived in Cabrini Green and set the fire at the end!
@@scano36 that’s the first thing I thought, I feel like the man that was accused of giving the kids the candy just took the fall for tony Todd and jake and his mom is going to let him in on the secret of who the real Candyman which is genius
Never even knew who Peele and the show he was on not everyone knows this racist weirdo "oh it's scary lemme make it an all black horror movie" (white ppl make up the majority paying to see your shit)
I like the attention to detail for when the logos appear, they're mirrored, like how to summon Candyman, you need to say his name five times in front of a mirror.
@@michaelororke379 also, your playlists are public. We know you listen to Lil Uzi and Future. For someone who hates when we talk about our blackness you sure do seem to enjoy the culture. 🧐
I'm a teacher of art and have been getting my students hyped for this movie since last year. The children of today know nothing of this 1992 masterpiece and now I'm ready after so many years to see how Candyman greets this new generation.
@@temuujinsukhbaatar7345 Agreed. The first half was great but the second half kind of falls off. It’s still good but nowhere near the masterpiece some people claim it is.
Just to be able to grow up watching every one (except lll) is amazing. I hope I'm able to see these last 2 Halloween movies. Michael Meyers the best on screen killer of all time. And it ain't close
Here's a therory on why this origin is different from the original. "Candyman ain't a he. Candyman the whole damn hive." I think this reference the fact that a lot of vengeful spirits all surround the Candyman urban legend. This movie might involve around those different spirits until eventually leading to the original Candyman. Anthony will probably become the next Candyman and thus a new part of the urban legend. Candyman is like a hive that's always growing.
Oh my goodness how many times I gotta say this to people the OG candyman’s origin is in the trailer you see him getting his hand cut off like y’all need to look at the full trailer before you go to the comments and type how mad you are about the origin
@@jadencarmon6973 the origin story was a short story. In the story, the Candyman was not a black man. His face was yellow with blue wrinkles? Something like that. There were insects but they were not bees, they were some sort of flying ant. The only urban legend referenced was candy and razors lying on the floor in the candyman's lair. It is hard to say whether or not the writer was influenced by the Chicago killer known as the Candyman. That part has been worked into the movie though, but again, it was not in the book. The book seems to focus more on urban legends. The Candyman wants Hannah to come with him so that she can live forever but not have to live. In other words, she will be talked about, her story and her disappearance will be spoken of forever, but she will not have to live or deal with life. If the stories begin to dissipate or people begin to doubt, then he returns I guess.
@@CPKerney that's where the aspect of him being a local myth comes from. No one will keep telling it the same, people will change it. Lot of us believe that angers Candyman and wants to remind everyone of his original origins and his existence through the baby he took so long ago
His shots are very distinctive, too. You can pick out a Peele movie that way just as sure as a Wes Anderson or Kubrick movie. He's got a very particular cinematic vision.
The original Candyman is the scariest movie ever! Any kid growing up in Chicago was terrified of him. We would ride through Cabrini Green quite often because you had to pass through it to reach Downtown! I’m kind of nervous to see this one 🤣🤣🤣 but I’m glad they brought back some of the same actors.
Funny because countless white people always die in horror films but know one says anything about that. Where did the black guy always dies thing even start
I’m just thrilled they brought Tony Todd back for this! He is a living legend of horror and the only actor who can bring this amazing character to life again.
Just watched this today and this it's one of the best horror movies I've seen in recent years Also I like how it's more of a soft sequel to the first Candyman and not a full on reboot (I actually thought it was gonna be a reboot based on the trailer) But I gotta say, this movie really is something (Something great)
@@Victory987 ...... Ok Bruce wayne I literally don't even get how a movie of fiction and me hating other races correlates in your head but ok But then again you have a joker pfp so I can't be too surprised
Looks like they’re leaning into the whole urban legend/folklore element with Candyman having different origins depending on who’s telling the story. That’s a cool idea.
It’s weird how before we didn’t really know the origin of candyman just knew that he was and he was a bad guy, based off of the origins. Now he was a good guy coming out of the wall with a hook in his hand just trying to innocently give a child a piece of candy and the real monster was the white police. The child’s scream was what doomed the candy man. He was then brutally murdered by the police.
@@AaronTM.. what makes it even more fucked up and scarier is that if you look deeper into each of the candyman, ‘the hive’ as it’s called, you can see that some of them are based off of real life tragic events of people who actually were killed
@@charlottea.cavatica1696 It was intentional as "Candyman" deals with urban legends and the titular character is inspired by multiple urban legends, most notably the Hook (killer with a hook for a hand) and Bloody Mary (vengeful spirit called up by saying their name in a mirror).

@@robb4951 Well, It was made by Jordan Peele and his crew. All of their movies are like that so I went into it totally expecting it. It's more of a social commentary with horror elements than the the other way around. It isn't subtle either.
@@enderzebak2863 The first Candyman was the scariest movie I ever saw as a kid. Sadly as an adult movies can't scare me in the same way (Hereditary was close though lol) but I thought this trailer looked like it will be a worthy reboot and I for one can't wait.
My grandma was obsessed with scary movies and still is I knew about Candyman since I was 5, I've never played about his name not even once Lowkey pushed it away like Freddy memory lol
Tony Todd said he was contacted for clothing deals and action figures,and that they wouldnt go through such effort for a quick cameo. Damn I can't wait to see this
I'm beyond hype for this. Loved Peele since 'Get Out' and consider 'Us' a masterpiece... Candyman been my favorite since I was a kid, now I get to see it skillfully remastered as an adult, before my birthday! Happy birthday to me! 🐝👀
Get Out was mild fun, entertaining fluff. 20 years ago it would have been a straight to DVD release. Peele is just in the right place at the right time with critics obsessing over racial politics and giving over the top praise for his films. Nothing against him.per se but he's yet to make a truly great film.
@Opp Kage I would definitely recommend you watch THEM on Amazon Prime. It's not Jordan Peele but it is certainly a spiritual twin. It's a ten-part series based on a black family moving into a white suburbia paradise in early 1950s LA. It has a supernatural/spiritual storyline behind it (cliche family move into new house and it's haunted) but the terrifying aspect is that the unfiltered unrelenting racism the family get beaten with is much much worse than the demonic. If you search online, Stephen King has said in interview that the first episode of this series scared the living crap out of him. If you're a fan of Candyman and Get Out and Antebellum i would definitely recommend this series. At different parts it has made me want to scream, cry, and vomit from how intense it gets.
I'm the same and I'm white. Black people don't usually freak out about ghosts, demons, etc if anything it's a rarity to see any afraid when it comes to things like that. I'll believe a black person regarding ghost encounters over anyone else and it's not even close

@@tintinismybelgian I was thinking the guy that gets shot in this would just be some weird guy putting razors in candy to hurt kids, then after getting dubbed Candyman that would give the original spirit enough power to come back and kill again but after researching a bit more I think the guy giving out candy is going to be part of the hive or a different iteration of his origin (like how a lot of myths have different aspects in them depending on who tells you it)

The first trailer is honestly scarier, but I really like the aesthetic being shown so far. And it’s great that Tony Todd will return as the title character & they’ll expand the mythos of Candyman and how he infects the minds after and before the original film

So finally I just got a chance to watch this beautifully made film,I've seen all the others back In the day and I watched intently to see what will happen next in my own words it was great! But it was what was playing as the credits were rolling that caught my 👀...in the beginning of the movie there were little stick shadow puppets,so as credits rolled the little paper shadow puppets were back,I immediately noticed the Emmett Till story,and a story about a little boy who was sent to death by electric chair, which made me wanna know the story,so I looked it up and I j wanna say thanks for the shadow puppets and RIP George Stinney🕊️
George Stinney killed two young girl! He deserved the chair.

Really bro...
Tonny todd is candyman, dude was born to play this character...
Or just be in any horror movie that was made for he has a voice and presence that sends a terrifying chill down my spine
So, is this malevolent spirit connected to the innocent guy who died or is it the original source of the candy with razor blades? It's a bit unclear.
@@tintinismybelgian okay I don't mean to insult you but have you watched the first Candyman
@@Fallout4277 Nope, I haven't. The closest I've come is watching a Cinema Snob review of it a couple of years ago. In either case, if the film-makers of this version go in a new direction, it could be a different interpretation of the spiritual/metaphysical entity.

No one can replace the original actor,his voice is,and it will be,unique.
Tony Todd is supposedly in the movie. not sure if he's the Candyman but he is in it. you can even hear his voice say "candyman"
He's confimed to be reprising his role in the film
You're spot on Gagi! Tony Todd's presence was the best part of the original! I'm trusting Jordan Peele to understand that and utilize him properly in this film. Fingers crossed!!
@@themoviebrosreact Jordan Peele is the producer, not the director. Just throwing that out there.
@@elvispresley2214 That’s correct but he also wrote the screenplay so he has direct creative impact on the film even though he did not direct it. 😊
To put everyone’s mind at ease about the titular character this time round. Tony Todd will be back as the original Candyman in some capacity but they're focusing more on expanding the mythos into something called The Hive so that there are multiple Candymen throughout the movie.
From what I got with this trailer The Hive is "The System"
Bruh. So the leading actor would be just the "vessel" for HIM to come back
Daniel Robatielle is just one tragic story, there are millions of tragic stories of unjustified killings.

I think everyone is getting caught up on the scene in the trailer missing the fact that the actor they show giving out candy isn’t the real actor who played candyman. I think it will serve as a plot theme to show how the story/urban legend gets twisted with time and how the truth has been forgotten making the real candyman even more mad. Just my thoughts.
Yeah… we been knowing that’s the original actor. It’s in the credits and been in the news articles he’s coming back to play the role.
@@Hakunamutata916 Maybe Tony Todd will still be the main actor, but he'll like, take other forms and such?

He isn't just a he, he's the whole damn hive meaning he made several candymans to continue on his legacy. He made a hive of vengeful spirits under his name. He trying to reclaim Anthony again and put him under his legacy aswell
A lot of people seem to be confused. Candyman is similar to Freddy where they need people to believe in them. In the first film Helen was doing a thesis on urban legends. The thing about Urban Legends is they change constantly but keeping the similar focus. So maybe the story of the guy told was an urban legend. Also remember in the first film Helen did find a bunch of razor blades in candy that was never explained.
In this film I think that’s what Anthony is also going to be is trying to find the true story. Some of you seem displeased with the police aspect and race commentary when in reality. Candyman has always had commentary on race and poverty.
In the first film when they catch the fake Candyman Helen says “they’ve been looking for this guy for a while but one white woman gets hurt and they shut the entire building down to find him”. In the 2nd film the cop was majorly incompetent. In the 3rd film there was a super racist and predatory cop so this is nothing new.
Well said. Exactly.
@@Cheshirestog thank you lol. Candyman is one of my favorite horror films. He’s apart of my top five boogeymen.

@@seanpasttrip795 can’t really provoke something that’s happening in real time. Was it a little on the nose? Some can argue maybe, especially the way he was killed by the cops. The film itself sheds light to what people such as myself can go through, especially those that live in poor communities
@@tyree556 Interesting point tyree556.

Dumb movie warning you
@@kimlibrisk9968 did you watch it?
Here's a therory on why this origin is different from the original.
"Candyman ain't a he. Candyman the whole damn hive."
I think this reference the fact that a lot of vengeful spirits all surround the Candyman urban legend. This movie might involve around those different spirits until eventually leading to the original Candyman. Anthony will probably become the next Candyman and thus a new part of the urban legend. Candyman is like a hive that's always growing.
Not bad but this aint a retelling.
It's a continuation of the original.
He's an Apparition, look into it I think you'll be surprised
@@skythewolf35 why is the back story different? This trailer omits the original story.
Oh my goodness how many times I gotta say this to people the OG candyman’s origin is in the trailer you see him getting his hand cut off like y’all need to look at the full trailer before you go to the comments and type how mad you are about the origin
@@jadencarmon6973 the origin story was a short story. In the story, the Candyman was not a black man. His face was yellow with blue wrinkles? Something like that. There were insects but they were not bees, they were some sort of flying ant. The only urban legend referenced was candy and razors lying on the floor in the candyman's lair.
It is hard to say whether or not the writer was influenced by the Chicago killer known as the Candyman. That part has been worked into the movie though, but again, it was not in the book.
The book seems to focus more on urban legends. The Candyman wants Hannah to come with him so that she can live forever but not have to live. In other words, she will be talked about, her story and her disappearance will be spoken of forever, but she will not have to live or deal with life.
If the stories begin to dissipate or people begin to doubt, then he returns I guess.
@@CPKerney that's where the aspect of him being a local myth comes from.
No one will keep telling it the same, people will change it.
Lot of us believe that angers Candyman and wants to remind everyone of his original origins and his existence through the baby he took so long ago
How did I know this was Jordan Peele, he has such a unique way of storytelling
He’s so talented
@@mrpopo5097 the movie was cheeks
His shots are very distinctive, too. You can pick out a Peele movie that way just as sure as a Wes Anderson or Kubrick movie. He's got a very particular cinematic vision.
Because the social commentary is very on the nose and obvious.
@@mrpopo5097 oopppp
The original Candyman is the scariest movie ever! Any kid growing up in Chicago was terrified of him. We would ride through Cabrini Green quite often because you had to pass through it to reach Downtown! I’m kind of nervous to see this one 🤣🤣🤣 but I’m glad they brought back some of the same actors.

Now he was a good guy coming out of the wall with a hook in his hand just trying to innocently give a child a piece of candy and the real monster was the white police. The child’s scream was what doomed the candy man. He was then brutally murdered by the police.
@@AaronTM.. what makes it even more fucked up and scarier is that if you look deeper into each of the candyman, ‘the hive’ as it’s called, you can see that some of them are based off of real life tragic events of people who actually were killed

Yes I LOVE get out and us..as well!! 😊
How were they masterpieces? Peele is just M. Night with extra steps. All his movies are just bad, mediocre at best
US was shit
Get Out was mild fun, entertaining fluff. 20 years ago it would have been a straight to DVD release. Peele is just in the right place at the right time with critics obsessing over racial politics and giving over the top praise for his films. Nothing against him.per se but he's yet to make a truly great film.
@Opp Kage I would definitely recommend you watch THEM on Amazon Prime. It's not Jordan Peele but it is certainly a spiritual twin. It's a ten-part series based on a black family moving into a white suburbia paradise in early 1950s LA. It has a supernatural/spiritual storyline behind it (cliche family move into new house and it's haunted) but the terrifying aspect is that the unfiltered unrelenting racism the family get beaten with is much much worse than the demonic. If you search online, Stephen King has said in interview that the first episode of this series scared the living crap out of him. If you're a fan of Candyman and Get Out and Antebellum i would definitely recommend this series. At different parts it has made me want to scream, cry, and vomit from how intense it gets.
Sam hyde’s full length feature film
I don’t know why I get soo scared when I see a all black cast in a horror movie. Makes it soo much more real feeling.
Probably because you are black and have a black family
I'm the same and I'm white. Black people don't usually freak out about ghosts, demons, etc if anything it's a rarity to see any afraid when it comes to things like that. I'll believe a black person regarding ghost encounters over anyone else and it's not even close
