drive.google.com/file/d/1ih3WBXGgoHEndFr_lRsWbfAO6E_Zvvvz/view?usp=drivesdk Check this out.A screenplay I wrote based on the Candyman mythos. Thanks in advance!
I really like how they added the shadow puppets. They really add a creepy atmosphere in the story. Three of the shadow puppets actually represent real deceased people that were all unjustifiably killed. Anthony Crawford George Stinney Jr. James Byrd Jr.
The Main 3 Candymen that are the most terrifying are; Anthony Crawford, James Byrd Jr. and George Stinney Jr. WHY? Because if you remember how Sherman Fields looks as a Candyman, his face is horrifically swollen and his eyes are bloodshot corresponding to being beaten to death by the police and as evident by what the puppet show is telling us; Anthony Crawford (The Man with The Scythe) - His body was used for target practice by the mob that murdered him and it was mutilated beyond belief, imagine what he would look like AS a Candyman, possibly a terrifying mutilated walking corpse with the scythe he carried as his “hook”. James Byrd Jr. (The Man dragged to Death by The Truck) - Before he was dragged for three miles, they spray painted his face, urinated and defecated on him, his torture came to end about halfway along the road of his dragging, when his right arm and head were severed when his body hit a culvert, now imagine how horrific he would look coming back as a Candyman; as you can see in the puppet show, half the skin of his head his missing, exposing his skull, teeth and eyeball. and FINALLY, George Stinney Jr. (The Boy on The Bike) - As you can see in the puppet show, he is a 14 year-old child (and the youngest of the hive) riding a bike with the hook in his hand, when he was executed for the crime he didn’t commit, his face was allegedly burned beyond recognition, his legend would be the most terrifying to both children and their parents if he came back with a deformed head and face (due to the electrocution), we don’t think anyone would want to go outside at night if you hear that he “still wonders the sidewalks at night” riding same bike he rode when he was alive looking to take a child away from their parents like they took him away from HIS. Think about that.
Some of these “Candymen” are real people. The 14 year ld boy who was electrocuted for killing two white girls was so shocking. I can’t believe the atrocities some, a LOT of, us face just because of the color of our skin. Black people (anyone for that matter) are born the way we are. It’s not like it’s a choice. I’ll never understand why people need a reason to hate other people. If there was no racism, it would be hair color, eye color, whateverexcuse. Humans will always find a way to hate. I’ll never forget that South Park episode where all religion was thrown out the window in favor of science, and there were still opposing factions of science fighting wars. That’s exactly what the hell would happen, sadly.
I couldn't agree more. 14 y/o George Stinney Jr. was a scapegoat for the 1940s "justice" system towards the marginalized black community and wasn't declared innocent until some 70-odd years later. This Candyman sequel really hits all the right notes about how the titular specter, as well as all the other members of the Hive, is an allegory for generational racial injustice and what kind of monster it makes as Burke states, _"Candyman is how we deal with the fact that these things happened! That they're still happening!"_
Watching this and researching on the real life cases that were interpreted on this piece makes me ashamed and disgusted to be a white person. To know that our race is capable of so much cruelty is beyond me.
They definitely got the fear they were looking for here. There's something about this that's just deeply unsettling. Seeing these horrible things happen to good people in a world that won't give them justice. Then the way they become something evil, driven not by justice or ambition, but hate. They're taken over by the need to be remembered, to be avenged, so much so that they lose who they were. They're names are lost. A good man becomes an obsessed monster, an innocent child becomes a killer. The horrible things done cause them to lash out at the world, no matter who deserves it. It perpetuates this terrible cycle. Blame becomes more alluring than any sweet. Hatred, more deadly than any venom.
I liked how they used shadow puppets in the film to tell the tales, it create a creepy atmosphere around it. Plus all these tales, or events, that happen just seem so meaning and deep. You have to think of how these innocent people became victims of hate and racism had become the monster of one big hive. All representing the hate that they received from the people that did this to them and lash and kill no matter who the people are. It's gives to a meaning of this theme of an endless cycle of hate that happening everywhere still to this day.
@@thakingofdetroit gotta say I read all of the first draft of the screenplay. Looks pretty damn good, I liked how you created the backstory. Really well detailed and more into the characters as well.
I actually do have a question about that kid on the bike well first off now that I think about it when I first saw this I think what I saw was Just a normal everyday innocent little African American teenage adult kid who was just enjoying riding his bike along side in the neighborhood and going up the hill about to go home for lunch when all of a sudden a very cruel little bully stitching girl who had pony 2 tails on the back of her head just pointed and snitched and at first I didn’t know what she was pointing at because at first I thought she was pointing at something or someone else but then as soon as I saw the other people pointing at the kid on the bike even the towns folk and the granny at first I was confused as to why where they pointing at him just like the kid in the film as he was continuing to ride his bike and then when I actually realized in my head that (I know it was still animation of shadow puppets but still real) it was actually back in the very cruel segregation times (back When MLK JR was around or not Or i don’t know) but anyway back to my point so when I actually saw the officer stopping the teenage boy on his bike saw that he was putted in prison and in court on day on his judgement day all of the cruel people blamed him for everything and he was found guilty and the judge sentenced him to death in the electric chair and after his death he was then reborn but from the bee sting but it wasn’t him no more because he now had a hook in his hand while riding his bike and started killing people at night and taking them away. Now after what I saw all of that here are the questions I have 1st, question: Why was he sent to jail? Like what did he do? Why was he blamed for Everything By the Towns people? Why was he found guilty and why did they sentence him to death in the Electric chair? Now here are very 2 important questions I must ask like Where Was This Kids Parents In All Of This? Also How In The Heck Was His Hand Replaced With A Hook Because I Didn’t See In The Film (except for the artist) That Not Only Did I Didn’t See His Hand Was Sawed Off Intact It Was Still Connected To His Wrist And Body And So Where All Of The Others (no joke Well I guess or I think for the mover who was moving in but got killed by a mad mob of people so it’s unconfirmed so we don’t know yet but we do know that he did have a hook for a hand just as the song and movie ended no joke.
So was the first one. If by BLM you mean complain him about bad cruel things happening to black people in history. Hell even black la had social commentary. Most of the old movies where done by the bleeding heart hippy liberals of their time. We just don’t see them as woke in hindsight because even the more traditional people’s values changed over time. Like, today you wouldn’t bat an eye at a 1960s TV show with a black and white couple. But that was “disrespectful” or “political” or “liberal” back then in its day

Preach it!!! That’s the whole point of Candyman. These people died so that we would learn a lesson, and for some reason it keeps happening.

None of them chose to be Candyman Hive wraiths, a cruel fate in the form of hatred and injustice made them so.

He's the one and only CANDYKID.
I hate them they did this to candyman and other people like candyman, they didn’t do anything wrong 😡
Agreed and I felt so sorry for the kid on the bike.
So I guess my real core question is What happened in that animation?
There are six candymen

Give my screenplay a read if you have a chance.
Ok
The first one was a farmer
The second one was a new neighbor moving next door
The third one was a boy on a bike
Would the World be better off without hate and racism?
This is a movie for BLM right?
So was the first one. If by BLM you mean complain him about bad cruel things happening to black people in history. Hell even black la had social commentary.
