Product Description

Amazon.ca

A stylish though inferior sequel to its classic predecessor, Bill Condon's Candyman: Farewell to the Flesh deepens our knowledge of what made the murdered Daniel Robitaille turn into the monster that haunts dreams and mirrors. But some of it is still pretty routine: schoolteacher Annie takes a long time to connect her family's plantation-owning past and her own artistic talent with the legend, and is far too ready to say the Candyman's name five times in a mirror to debunk her pupils' fears.

The setting: New Orleans at Carnival time with a disc jockey whimsically reminding us that Carnival is the last farewell to pleasure before the rigors of Lent. Tony Todd, who returns as the Candyman, gives a quiet dignity and sadness to the monstrous specter with a hook for a hand. His life was torn from him and he is mad for vengeance, yet he has an artistic temperament and loved Annie's kinswoman Caroline. Condon captures an attractive elegiac tone in much of this, as well as moments of brutal horror. --Roz Kaveney

4.0 out of 5 stars more stylish than the first Mar 21 2008
By falcon TOP 1000 REVIEWER
Format:DVD
i liked this follow up to the original Candyman movie.i found it
entertaining and the acting is pretty good.i also liked that there was
a back story that fleshed out the title character and gave him some
humanity.i didn't find the movie scary and there wasn't a lot of
gore,so gore hounds will be disappointed.the story itself doesn't have
a lot of depth to it,other than the back story.still the movie goes
along at a good clip,and it's very stylish,more so than the first one
was.was it as good as the original?i think so.i don't think it was
better,but it was as good.in terms of entertainment,i thought it was a
good movie.if you expect to be scared,you might be disappointed
here.otherwise,you might like it.for me,Candyman 2:Farewell to the
Flesh is a 4/5

4.0 out of 5 stars inferior but entertaining sequel
Yes, this is a sequel, so yes, it is not nearly as good as the original. It lacks the atmosphere, the charge, and the emotional depth of the first Candyman film. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Not as good but still effective
THis entry in the Candyman series is actually not as bad as one may think. This time the story revolves around a woman (as usual) who is a direct decndent of the cnadyman. Read more

2.0 out of 5 stars Fast becoming a standard slasher series.
In much the same manner of "Halloween", "Friday the 13th", and "Nightmare on Elm Street", the "Candyman" series is one that should have stopped at part 1. Read more
