Very underrated

I agree with you. It's one of the best horror movies of the '90s. Tony Todd's performance is excellent and legendary.

For the first hour or so, it's about as good as most horror movies get.

I agree. Until the scene where Helen wakes up in Ann Marie's apartment, the film is terribly scary and frankly superb.

I wish the film had not gone the way it did, it was way too visceral and gory....but also the story went all over the place.

I'd say this cloud is Cumulo Nimbus.
Didn't he discover America?
Penfold, shush.

I agree. Candy Man was one of the greatest Horror movies of the 90s and I liked the sequel but wasn't particularly fond of the third.

The good thing about Candyman is that it wasnt a slasher film that delivered as a scary horror film.

But I didnt like the sequels. They werent scary.
