Candyman
0.5/4 stars

Okay, I'm sorry, but this is one of the lamest horror movies ever. It is about a guy who lived in a small country town, and was tortured and killed for loving the wrong movie. After he died, apparently, if you said his name, 'Candyman', five times, in the mirror, he will appear. So, in the town of which his apartment was in, unexplained deaths were blamed on the Candyman. So a uni student called Helen, went in search of the facts about the story, for research, even though she didn't believe in the Candyman.

I thought that this movie had a pretty good plot, but the actual movie wasn't any good at all. The blood was oh-so-obviously-fake, and it didn't really catch the attention of the viewer very well, I thought. There was one good thing about the movie, though. There was a good use of suspence. Like, for example, you knew something was about to happen, so you brace yourself for it, and then the Candyman jumps out, nearly giving you a heart attack. But then you get over it in like one second, and you once again realize what a crap movie it is...
