The excellent production design, camera work, and music create an alluring yet unsettling atmosphere. But beneath the surface of this updated "Candyman" is a disastrous screenplay with one-dimensional characters, clunky dialogue, and commentary that's as subtle as a hook hand to the throat.

Okay so I'll say that I was hyped over this one all summer long I had been excited since I saw the previews but I'll say that I was a little let down here the movie isnt all that scary and moves like a snail I'm saddned that this is the way it is cause it could have been and being made by Jordan Peele it really should have been a wonderful film.but oh my God this is just a shitsterpeice it had everything going for it it had the hype it had the fact that it was close to October it had an amazing creator but it just doesn't work here I wish it had but sadly guess not I can't say it's a total let down cause I enjoyed it as what it was a mystery not a horror movie I wish it would have worked as what it was billed as which was a scary horror film I give it a 7 out of 10
