Candyman
01:46:13
About
We turn our attention to 1992 and Bernard Rose’s exquisite reimagining of a Clive Barker short story; “Candyman”. A film in which Ardelia Mapp from The Silence of the Lambs realises all her white friends are trouble; John Connor’s foster dad is still a major piece of shit; and we all get seduced by the deep mellifluous voice of Lieutenant Commander Worf’s little brother. Along the way we discuss “The Field Guide To Evil”, the “Fear Street” trilogy and “Haunted”. Watch (or re-watch) to avoid spoilers, and join us.

Lee Good evening and welcome to horror.
Lee I'm Lee.
Chris I'm Chris.
Adam And I'm Adam.
Chris Oh, that that was that was good.
Lee That's quite pretty.
Adam Thank you.
Chris I don't think you can keep it up for too long though, or this will be a short episode.
Adam Yes.
Lee As well as then chunking and throwing up all over half way through the episode.
Adam The trouble is it's going to Barry White quite quickly.
Adam No, I'm not going to cut the part of sophisticated Lady, No, off.
Lee He's already turned into a Woman. Yeah.
Lee So, as you can probably tell from Adam's voiceover, we are going to be discussing 1992's Candyman this evening as our main event.
Lee But before we get too excited, and we get all carried away with ourselves and start talking about Candyman.
Lee Chris, what have you been watching in the last fortnight?
Chris I would love to be able to say something, but I'm going to have to have my bottom spanked here, because not a lot.
Lee You've been on holiday.
Chris I'll blame holiday and I was sure I'd come up something, but I just didn't manage to today, so we got back yesterday, late yesterday and yeah.
Chris So, there you go.
Chris That that was a an easy one.
Lee That's fine.
Lee I'm sure I'll make up for it next time.
Lee I think myself and Adam have got a shit to get, actually by the end of it, so yeah.
Lee We'll let you off this week, Chris, without a thrashing.
Chris Okay, get a couple of yeah, a couple of those a year.
Lee Oh yeah, I think we all need a couple of passes where you're like, I just haven't had time in the fortnight.
Lee It sounds like a long time.
Chris Yeah, sometimes it flies by.
Lee Yeah, absolutely.
Lee Adam.
Adam It's also it's that lovely thing of how much of a how much of a thing you're in where it's like,
Adam Do you know what, life's been pretty dreck for about for the past fortnight.
Adam And it's like, yeah, what what I really fancied watching was someone skinning people alive, you know?
Adam Just fucking offset that.
Lee So on that note, what have you been watching Adam since we were last?
Adam Well, I've got I've got one one that relates to
Adam our good friends, the not for everyone podcast.
Lee Oh!
Adam in that I've finally on on their recommendation, I've finally got around to watching Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia.
Lee Oh, I've heard you on that episode, but I've not seen it.
Adam Oh yeah, no, it's a proper like 70s crime drama Sam Peckinpah.
Adam And it's one of those it's one of those films where you're like, this genuinely feels like it doesn't have any of the sort of jazziness or sort of sensationalist sort of elements of later crime films where it's like,
Adam Hey, look at these cool hitmen.
Adam Or, you know, look, look, they talk about Madonna.
Adam Just before they go and shoot people.
Lee Ha ha.
Adam This this just genuinely feels like, oh no, look, this is this is what happens when grown-ups do horrible things.
Lee That sounds horrible.
Adam It's it is, I mean it's it's one of the best fucking concepts I've ever heard for film is it's basically a mob boss puts a hit out on this guy, but the bloke actually got killed in a car accident.
Adam So someone works out, oh well, if I go and dig the body up and cut the head off,
Adam I take that to him and I get paid even though I didn't kill the guy.
Adam It's not, you know what I mean, but it's sort of, yeah, and the sort of cross the sort of cross betrayals and things like that.
Adam That go hand in hand with that sort of thing.
Adam I mean, the only thing is is that, I mean, it's one of those films as well, that lovely 70s thing where literally everyone is clearly wankered because they are drinking from the bottle the whole time.
Adam And and also just it's just so happens that the main guy can outshoot anyone.
Adam So it's sort of, you know, there there is a sort of like, you were playing piano in a bar, weren't you?
Adam But you have but you have just seen off like the mafia and a whole village full of disgruntled people and you know, a whole.
Adam But that's that's beside the point, but it is genuinely, you know.
Adam It was a genuinely good film.
Adam And also one of those ones that just sticks with you.
Adam Because basically, I mean, it costs him a lot more than just going and digging up the the head and it's a real like it does feel like someone unraveling before your eyes of like, actually, this is a pretty nasty thing to have to go and do and it just gets worse and it clearly fucks you up as you go.
Adam So it's, yeah.
Adam I'm not sure if it's one for you, Lee, but it's definitely, yeah, I yeah.
Adam And I'm like I say, it's one of those ones that I've always heard about and never got around to watching.
Adam But because because Adam and Bobby did it, I thought, well, I'll
Adam And it turned up on Arrow sale for seven quid.
Adam So I thought I'll have a dose, I'll have a dose of that in full Blu-ray.
Adam So, yeah.
Adam But yeah, no.
Adam That's that's a good one.
Adam But the the main thing I watched, which kind of feels like a lot more films than I actually watched.
Adam is I've watched the Field Guide to Evil, which is a modern it's like, I think it's 2018.
Adam So it's only a few years old now.
Adam but it was basically the concept is it's an anthology film where they get.
Chris Oh, we know anthologies.
Chris We know how good they are.
Lee Love them.
Adam Well, it's it's in that it's in that sort of vein that the anthology seems to be much more these days where it's like, it's actually it's a collection of short films.
Adam I you've got several different directors to do it rather than one guiding overall hand.
Adam so you don't really get a wrap-around story, but you do get a like there's a a big book which is the Field Guide to Evil.
Adam And basically the concept is you've they've got eight well, it's actually nine directors because two of them are Ajo who direct together.
Adam but so you've got like eight filmmakers and they do eight films based on the folklore.
Adam Each one's based on the folklore of the their country of origin.
Chris
Chris That's interesting.
Adam And so you so you've got stuff you've got stuff from Austria, Germany,
Adam there's yeah, Poland, India,
Adam Turkey, the US and.
Adam I'm trying to think where else.
Adam but I mean mainly sort of a bit European-centric, but yeah.
Adam Hungary.
Adam but they're all really but it the filmmakers, you've got Can Evrenol who did Baskin.
Adam And the woman who directed the Lure, the directors of Goodnight Mommy, I've still goodnight Mommy, I've still not seen it, but it's the that was a film that was sort of like.
Adam And that's the that's the other thing that this has given me is that the people I don't know.
Adam It's really made me want to see some other stuff of theirs because it's sort of like, right, okay, that was a that was a good fucking 20 minutes.
Adam And I'd be impressed to see what you're going to do as a full length.
Chris Yeah.
Adam but I mean like each each story's like each story's like about 20 minutes long.
Adam So it's that good thing of if something's not quite clicking for you, you get something else shortly.
Adam And also again, it brings me back to that thing where I'm always saying about with horror films where it with horror films where it's like adaptations and stuff like that, with this, essentially, you just get the money shot of each piece.
Adam So rather than sitting there and it's like, you know, watching an hour and a half where it's like, oh, well, they'll tell you what the folklore is and then you wait around for it to happen and then it and then it occurs and that's the end of it or it's it occurs and then there's 15, 20 minutes of farting around about what the aftermath was.
Adam This is just literally, here's the grim bits, crack on.
Adam You know, so.
Adam but yeah, there's and but there's there's one which is.
Adam There's I mean, there's there's a couple that weren't all that, but then still good enough looking that I sort of like.
Adam you know, that I didn't I didn't mind that.
Adam but there's a couple there's a guy one of the directors got the story for Greece.
Adam which is like which looks like paintings from the front covers of fantasy like fantasy novels.
Lee Oh, nice.
Adam It's like incredible and I'm assuming it's, you know, it's like natural scenery or whatever like that, but it's it just is so near hallucinogenic and it's basically the story of a celebration that a goblin tries to infiltrate.
Adam But all these drunk great blokes just basically kidnapped the goblin and forced him to bleed wine for them.
Adam with a with a with a particularly slipknot looking goblin as well, with a big nose.
Adam Which is quite it's it's quite good in the way because it's that sort of thing where you're kind of.
Adam You would think it was a crappy effect except in this it kind of it's like, oh no.
Adam That that's what this goblin looks like a crappy effect.
Adam If you see what I mean.
Adam Because everything else looked so fucking stunning that it's like,
Adam No, I know that this isn't I know his nose is not wobbling because they didn't care.
Adam Or they couldn't get it right.
Adam I know that they've thought, wouldn't it be great if he has a wobbly big old wobbly knob nose and sort of stuff like that.
Adam there's a couple of stories that a lot of it, especially like the European stuff, really evokes the witch.
Adam So it's that kind of a feeling, you know, that sort of like bleak forestry and that's that's another reason.
Adam I think you'd like it, Lee.
Adam There's a lot of like that sort of the witch, Hansel and Gretel, that hallucinatory forest dreamlike sort of element to it.
Adam particularly like the German and Austrian stories.
Adam and the final story in it, which is Peter Strickland's story and he's he directed the Barian sound studio.
Adam And.
Adam It is genuinely the best modern silent film I have ever seen.
Adam In that it feels exactly like a silent film and it has, you know, like.
Adam Like title cards for the speech and everything, so it follows all the.
Adam It follows all the patterns of an old silent film, but he's not tried to like put noise on the thing to make it look old or anything else like that.
Adam It's in color, everything looks the tints, it's beautifully rendered and everything and really sort of quite grim fairy tale sort of.
Adam Tim Burton without the quirk sort of looking sort of thing.
Adam And, yeah.
Adam I mean, that's just amazing.
Adam The the and also, yeah, just out of nowhere.
Adam I'm I'm watching it and I said I'm saying, that is Reece Shearsmith, isn't it?
Adam And Reece Shearsmith does the voiceover of one of the stories.
Adam There's like a story set in a story set in India like sort of colonial India, so it's all black and white.
Adam And at the start of it, there's some live action, but it keeps going to just sort of montages of old photographs.
Adam And I don't to me, they look like they've just got some old photographs.
Lee Yeah.
Adam And use them to sort of like illustrate the point.
Adam So, you know.
Adam But overall, it's one of those things where and I've seen I've seen sort of like reviews online.
Adam And a lot of people seem to be giving it a bit of a sort of, meh.
Adam And it's like,
Adam well, the nature of these sort of things is going to be up and down when you've got like different directors and stuff like that.
Adam But just as a proper you know, just as an interesting little exercise, it's really good.
Adam Plus apart from the the USA story is the story of the Melonheads.
Adam But it's all genuine folklore from around the world and none of it was stuff I knew.
Adam They haven't gone for obvious.
Chris It's interesting.
Adam stuff.
Adam You know, it's not like, you know, it's not like, I mean even like with the US thing, they've gone with the Melonheads, which is a fairly obscure.
Chris Yeah, I've not heard of that before.
Adam It's like it's almost like redneck folklore that is, I suppose you could describe it where it's basically these deformed cannibal children that live in the backwoods of America.
Adam but yeah, there's yeah, there's like a German possessing spirit that makes you ravenously hungry.
Adam there's the the Turkish one like Can Evrenol's one, which is probably which is probably one of the better ones.
Adam And it's probably the the most sort of from start to finish scary.
Chris
Adam which it kind of almost reminds me of it really evokes Drag Me to Hell.
Adam There's a lot of ghosts and scary old women.
Adam so.
Adam But it's that but that's a a a creature from Turkish folklore that is a a gin of
Adam childbirth of like of post-childbirth depression.
Adam Essentially.
Adam It's postpartum depression as a creature.
Chris
Adam As a thing that affects you and it's sort of, but again, like I say, all of these things are brand new to me.
Adam And I just love I love folklore and that kind of thing anyway.
Adam Which kind of feeds very much into tonight's main feature.
Adam But I think that yeah, just just on that level where it's like,
Adam if nothing else, you'll watch it and you'll be like, I'd like to know more about that.
Lee Yeah.
Chris Yeah.
Adam Or I want to read up on that.
Adam Because they are all, you know, nothing, I don't think anything for it is you know, nothing's fictional, it's all based on real, I mean it's a term I use quite a lot, real folklore, but you know what I mean?
Adam It's like it's actual actual folklore.
Adam So.
Adam
Adam I'd definitely recommend it, I think I'd definitely recommend it to you guys.
Adam I don't know whether we'd cover it or whether just see you can see it.
Adam Because I think more than anything, it just even on a very basic ground level.
Adam There might be a couple of dodgy effects, particularly some of the Melonhead stuff.
Adam
Adam But in general, it just looks stunning, it's really well shot.
Adam And it like I say, it veers towards the theatrical, it veers towards the fantastical in its approach.
Adam And yeah, yeah, it's definitely definitely one to seek out.
Chris Yeah, sounds great.
Lee Excellent.
Adam And that's all the weather.
Lee Thank you very much.
Lee I'll put that on my list for for a very soon viewing then.
Lee I'll have to make sure I see that.
Lee
Adam I think, I'm not sure, but I think it's because I've got it on I got I managed to pick up an Italian Blu-ray of it.
Adam but it's I think it's on Shutter.
Adam Or it's on it's on Shutter or Prime.
Adam One or the other.
Adam I'm.
Chris Yeah, I'm I'm seeing it on Prime.
Adam Yeah.
Adam So, I'm I'm not sure I'm not sure if it's a paid to watch or anything, but I know it's on there.
Lee Fantastic.
Lee I shall give that a go, thank you very much.
Lee so I have caught up with parts two and three of Fear Street.
Lee The new thing.
Adam Oh yes, yes.
Lee I know I sort of raved about the first part.
Lee It it genuinely is better, believe it or not.
Adam Oh, cool.
Lee I I've just looked on IMDb and everybody else says the same.
Lee Oh, don't say the same.
Lee But the the rating, so the first part is 6.2 and then 6.8 and then 6.7.
Lee So yeah, people agree, they sort of, you know.
Lee It it the the second two are better than the third.
Lee And I love the first one.
Lee It was a really fun, a really fun story in and of itself.
Lee and they did a really good job of shifting it around in the time.
Lee So the first part I say takes place in 1994.
Lee And the soundtrack is so full of it that I've actually gone and bought a load of CDs this week.
Lee I've just bought Smash by the Offspring.
Lee and I bought Dookie by Green Day, there wasn't any Green Day on it, but it just put me back in that old mindset of 1994, so good.
Lee yeah, so I've gone back and bought loads of stuff I used to listen to.
Lee
Lee Yeah, the second one is a slasher.
Lee And the third one is set back in, as you were saying, Adam.
Lee it's that, you know, during the witch hunts and stuff, it's set in 1666.
Lee and they tie all the all the stories all tie together in one big piece.
Chris Excellent.
Lee But it sort of tells the story backwards and then brings it.
Adam Oh, cool.
Lee it's really good.
Lee I really enjoyed it.
Lee very different, but really clever.
Lee I said the only thing I didn't like about it and I won't give anything away cuz I know you guys haven't seen it, but for anybody who has, the big heart thing.
Lee I don't know why there was any need for that.
Lee It was it was like they put it was like you were saying, Adam.
Lee Like all of it, it is fantastical because it's as you can tell from the trailer, this isn't the spoiler.
Lee it's basically a whole town that's cursed because of a witch who was put to death.
Lee and this is how it's kind of affected different ages and different people through the.
Lee but yeah, then they put this really, really fantastical bit in it that doesn't explain anything and actually just I have more questions than if it hadn't been in there and it vaguely annoyed me.
Lee
Lee But not enough to not enjoy it.
Lee I think I'll definitely go back and rewatch all of these, they're really good.
Lee
Lee Yeah, and it's one of those, if you've ever got like a sick day or something where you're just not feeling yourself and you're like, oh, I'm just going to spend the day in bed and I'm not going to do anything.
Lee Or if.
Adam I'm spending the day in bed, I'm feeling myself.
Adam I'll just tell you that now.
Lee So yeah, or if you've just got a day and you just want a triple movie marathon, they're fairly short, they're all only an hour and 45-ish each, I think.
Lee
Lee Yeah, and I I do think I'll go back at some point and watch them all in a day back-to-back and and have.
Lee Yeah, an enjoyable time and a shitload of ice cream.
Lee So.
Lee That's on my list.
Lee so that was one that I really enjoyed.
Lee now for one that I didn't enjoy so much.
Lee And this is the third series of this show.
Lee And the first season was all right.
Lee The second season was awful, the third season is now even worse.
Lee and I'm still watching it.
Lee And I'll put it's I've always do it, I'll put it on and I know it's going to make me aggy.
Lee I've got more notes about this than I've got about fucking Candyman.
Lee That was how annoyed I was about it.
Lee
Lee But yeah, but this is also Netflix, so, you know.
Lee Although I sort of falled over Fear Street a bit.
Lee This is my counter to it, it's the haunted TV series that they're doing.
Lee
Adam Okay.
Lee Are you aware of this, Adam?
Adam no.
Adam This isn't this isn't like the this isn't there because obviously they did Haunting of Hill House and then they did Yeah.
Adam The haunting is it that is not is not connected to those.
Adam It's not that.
Adam All right.
Adam Okay.
Adam In that case, I have no idea.
Chris Real people sharing.
Lee Yeah, yeah, sharing real experiences.
Lee So basically it's someone who's had a haunting or a particularly traumatic experience and they sit them down in this old scary study and they have all their family and friends around.
Lee And they basically tell the story of this horrible thing that happened to them.
Lee
Lee And me being me, obviously, I skip all that.
Lee So like season three, the first one was about somebody grew up in a cult and I was like, yeah, I don't I don't want that.
Lee I want to jump straight into the my house is haunted.
Lee Right?
Lee So that's what I did.
Lee Now.
Lee This was set me up from the beginning, I shouldn't have done this.
Lee So I set up late one night, about 11:0 at night.
Lee Jennifer had gone to bed, I was like, do you know what, I'm going to have a couple more beers and then I'm going to go to bed, so I'm just going to put this on.
Lee And it was a guy saying like just put it out there.
Lee I know I've said this on the show, but I will reiterate before I lay into people who say they've been haunted, I don't believe in ghosts.
Lee I do believe that when people say they've had experiences, I don't think they're lying.
Lee I think they believe the things they're saying.
Lee I think misidentification.
Adam Yeah.
Lee And, you know, like we said before, Jennifer and I thought we'd seen a ghost.
Chris You could easily, yeah, accept what happened.
Lee Yeah.
Lee If we were believers, that would have been the end of it.
Lee We saw a ghost.
Chris You're happy to stop there.
Chris You don't want to try and prove that it isn't.
Chris Yeah.
Lee Really.
Lee Because you're like, well, I know what I saw and that was what I saw.
Lee We we would totally taken in by what we saw on on that evening.
Lee
Lee So that's so that's where I'm coming from.
Lee But on this, and this is the problem.
Lee It's things like this.
Lee So this guy says, we moved into this house and in the barn, and we moved in, it had been empty for a long time and we moved in, and in the barn there were all these scary old photographs.
Lee And old newspaper articles about horrible things that happened in the house, including the previous owner who had hung himself in the barn.
Lee So the previous owner had hung himself in the barn, who bought the fucking newspaper about the article, cut it out and put it in the shed.
Lee Where did it come from?
Lee Why are you not asking questions, you pillock?
Adam Fucking point.
Lee
Lee The second one was a girl who got a music box with a locket in it.
Lee And every time she wore the locket and opened the music box, a ghost would come and try to strangle her.
Lee And, you know, she kept seeing it and it was awful.
Lee And then.
Adam On the box.
Lee And then she says, nothing happened because I didn't open the box for a long time.
Lee Then I moved in with an older man who had a younger daughter, and when she opened it, the haunting went to her.
Lee I was like, why the shit do you still own this thing?
Lee I don't know.
Lee Put the locket on, open the box, a ghost appears in the mirror and tries to strangle you.
Lee That box is going on the fire within the next 15 minutes.
Lee I'm not keeping it and taking it when I move house, you stupid pillock.
Adam Or re-gift.
Lee Yeah.
Adam Must be someone that working don't like.
Lee And then the third one, I only got to watch half before we started recording this evening's one.
Lee but it was it was a a family moved into a house.
Lee And it's that thing, this is what annoys me about the show.
Lee Is they make so much of it, I haven't finished this episode and I'm willing to admit that, but basically it it started with a load of people listening to black metal.
Lee And wearing a scary mask and sacrificing a cat and all this stuff.
Lee And then it goes to the girl actually telling the story.
Lee And what she actually said is, the people who moved out, we saw them leaving.
Lee They didn't seem very happy with us, they seemed very off.
Lee So therefore, they were definitely weird.
Lee And they left some weird shit in the garden.
Lee So when my mom fell down the stairs, we decided there's definitely a demon cat in the house.
Chris Yeah, makes perfect sense.
Chris What where?
Lee All this stuff.
Lee They said.
Lee So the reason they thought that, the mom fell down the stairs and they said it was a she felt a presence had pushed her.
Lee And I was like, it's a brand new house with a rickety old set of stairs that she doesn't know and she's fallen down and broken her ankle.
Lee And then the girl says, I saw the demon cat and I tried to kill it and it just disappeared and vanished.
Lee And then two days later, I found out I had typhoid and I was dying and my temperature was 108 and I went blind.
Lee And it was like.
Lee So the cat clearly gave her typhoid.
Lee It wasn't that she was 108 degrees, hallucinating and a that it definitely that a ghost cat has given her typhoid.
Lee Because the people who are forced to move out to let them into the house, clearly were demon worshippers.
Lee Because they had a scary mask that they forgot to take with them and left it in the garden.
Lee Like it's just.
Lee Such.
Adam I'd like to think I'd like to think demon worshiper.
Adam Has take most of that kit with him.
Lee Yeah, what that's the other thing, it was like it was the high priest in this flashback wearing the mask.
Lee And this guy ripped open the cat and poured the blood all over this naked woman.
Lee And he was dancing around in the background.
Lee I was like, oh yeah, and then when they left, what, they just left it in a bin bag with a load of beer cans and left it floating around in the pool.
Lee Like.
Lee If that's your high priest of your cult's like important thing, I don't think you just move out and leave it floating in the pool with some junk.
Adam I think I think Claire made a very good point that it's or they just bought it to freak you out.
Lee Yeah.
Adam From a fucking joke shop.
Lee Yeah, you're like if you're getting forced out of your house and somebody else can move in, yeah, you're quite right.
Lee You would, you know, shit in the oven.
Lee Or leave a scary mask in the house.
Lee Like.
Lee Oh.
Adam Yeah, shit in the oven.
Adam Crashing the carpet.
Adam Fish in the back of the telly.
Adam You know, all the all the stuff.
Adam Yeah.
Adam Mind you, there was I saw a thing I think it was something Claire showed me where it was just some bin men finding some bin men had found someone had thrown out a ouija board.
Adam And they just put, we're keeping this and we're going to put it back in three weeks.
Lee Ha ha.
Lee Brilliant.
Lee Absolutely brilliant.
Lee yes, so I need to stop torturing myself with this.
Lee Because I just it's not good for my blood pressure.
Lee I get so angry with this show.
Lee You can't have many left though, can you?
Lee How many is there?
Lee I think there's five or six, I think there's six in a series or something.
Lee And as I say, I I I skip the ones that are like, yeah, I was once nearly killed by a serial killer or yeah, I was part of a cult and that sort of stuff.
Lee Because it they they don't really appear to me.
Lee I watched the alien ones and the haunting ones.
Lee
Lee Yeah, it get really, really aggy about it.
Lee
Lee So, before I burst a blood vessel.
Lee Let's get on to the this evening's main event, Adam's request.
Lee and quite rightly so.
Lee Because I think probably spurred by the fact that there is the new remake coming out.
Lee So we wanted to remind people that there is actually an early good one.
Lee
Adam
Adam Well, I to be honest, the new one that's coming out, I'll we'll get into it.
Adam I quite excited for.
Lee Oh.
Adam Because.
Adam Although they've done although they've done the one thing that annoys me, they've called it Candyman.
Lee
Adam Which.
Adam It's like Halloween, like the 2018 Halloween.
Adam It's like,
Adam Find something else, please.
Adam Even if you call it Halloween 2018, I know that's shit, but it rhymes.
Chris Yeah.
Adam And at least I'm not going to confuse Google.
Adam Looking for the John Carpenter one and getting that one and vice versa.
Adam So.
Adam You know.
Adam Apart from that.
Adam The I will say the new one does actually look.
Adam Yeah, well we'll get into it, but it looks pretty like it could be pretty fucking decent.
Adam And the main reason, admittedly, was I just kept seeing the fucking trailers for the new one.
Adam And they use the theme tune, they use Helen's theme, like the.
Chris Yeah.
Chris That's sensible.
Adam Yeah.
Adam And so it's just been buzzing around my head.
Adam Like a chest full of bees.
Adam And this is this is almost exorcism just to get it out because I'm like, I really must watch Candyman just because that music's just been, yeah, just been traipsing around my head for about a month and a half.
Adam So.
Lee So, Chris, was this your first viewing of Candyman?
Chris Not my first viewing.
Chris but I did watch it when when did it come out?
Lee 92.
Chris 92, so I was 12.
Chris Probably, I probably watched it a few years after it came out, I would think.
Chris I may have been 15, 16.
Chris I just I remember it being talked about at school.
Chris So it it, you know, in that meta way it had built up a myth around it, being itself, but.
Chris Yeah.
Adam I am the whisperer in the classroom.
Chris So.
Chris yeah, but I I definitely did watch it, but it was very late at night.
Chris I don't think I watched it again.
Chris And so it was sort of a bit of a dreamlike, you know, memory.
Chris but I just remember thinking it was amazing, but it was the concept of saying the name five times because we then did that for the next two years.
Chris Connor's going to say the name five times in the mirror, you know.
Lee Five times is too many.
Lee This is this is the.
Lee It's funny.
Lee We were doing a quiz recently, my brother for my birthday bought me a book of horror quizzes.
Lee
Lee and it's like 10 questions on each thing and it'll either be a film or a director or an actor, yeah, and we did the Candyman one.
Lee And yeah, I I realized how little I remembered it.
Lee But yeah, the options was how many times you have to say his name.
Lee Is it twice, three times or five times.
Chris I think everyone would go for three.
Lee Yeah.
Chris Surely.
Lee Surely.
Lee No, I wouldn't do it five times.
Chris That just sounds like a spoof, doesn't it?
Lee Yeah.
Chris But isn't it to prove, I don't know, like.
Chris You know, you're really dedicated if you're going to stand there.
Chris Yeah.
Adam Well, funnily enough, that's what Claire said to me.
Adam She was like, I think in that sort of in a pissing about way, she was just going, oh, well, I know a very important fact about Candyman that you probably don't know.
Adam And I was like, what's that?
Adam And she said, if you say his name three times, he appears.
Adam And I was like, I think it's five in the film, not to shit on your joke.
