Candyman (1992), Farewell to the Flesh, Day of the Dead, Candyman (2021) Episode 223

We’ve got our usual lineup of four movies and a short film this week— This time, it’s a wild assortment of weirdness!

This week, we’ll cover all of the “Candyman” films: the original from 1992 and the reboot from 2021 as well as the two sequels to the original, “Farewell to the Flesh” and “Day of the Dead.”

For our bonus reviews over at horrorbulletin.com, we have:

• “Murder to the Tune of Seven Black Notes” (1977) another Lucio Fulci film about premonitions and murder

• And “The Psychopath” (1966) a very weird British “whodunit” about a mental case.
