Movie Reviews of Candyman 2 - Farewell to the Flesh
Movie Review: The myth finds its historical roots
Summary: 5 Stars
This second film is even better than the first one. First we move to New Orleans, during Mardi Gras. The myth becomes history. We slowly rediscover the real slave who was lynched by the white planters just after the Civil War. The heroin is the direct descendant of him and Carolyne, his white lover. He was born on the plantation of the heroin of the film, in the slave quarters. And the myth is now entertwined with voodoo magic and Candyman's soul is emprisoned in a mirror. The gory chase is then to find this mirror and to destroy it in order to alleviate the spell, the curse. The rest is nothing but details and the details are what the film is all about. But, in spite of that, the myth will go on and survive, especially because the heroin will give birth to a daughter who she will name Carolyne. A myth, no matter how you destroy it, always survive in the memory of the people who carry it in their minds. The white culture of the US is totally inhabited with the black culture of the slaves the whites so often and with so much pleasure killed in agony and suffering. The Whites and the Blacks cannot in any way be separated because they are only one sole body of lore and myth. American culture is today two-sided and those two sides cannot in anyway be split apart.

I thougth that this film would of been better but it wasn't. It was a corney, chessey, and cheap sequel. The film had no value in special effects and meaning, and it wasn't as close to be good as the cult classic orignal. I only gave it two stars because it had the same music, and themes, as the orignal, and that it had characters and pictures from the orignal.Movie Review: The Corney Candyman seequel

Candyman: Farwell To The Flesh is a dissapointing and chessey sequel. The cast is good, the story isn't, and the setting isn't orignal. The film could of been better and it was no where near as good as the first one, but the third Candyman movie is better. This film isn't all that great but I recommend it, and I only gave it two stars because the beginging was good because it had details from the first one.Movie Review: Mirrior, Mirrior, whos the scariest of them all??
Summary: 2 Stars
Candyman Farwell To The Flesh is very dissapoint- ing and unsurpsing. It is dissapointing and it was no where near as good as the first one. The only reason why it got 2 stars was because it had the same music from the first one, and the begining was good, only because it has characters from the first one. Expect better?? Candyman 3 Day Of The Dead is very good, and the best Candyman sequel.Movie Review: No Candies Tonight!
Summary: 5 Stars
Are you sick of "supposed to be scary" low budget films, then this one`s for you. The film includes great, horrifying scenes, completed with great actors and a good concept. I have seen a lot of horror films over the years, so I don`t get easily scared, but this one scared my ass off. Tony Todd is excellent for the part as "Candyman", and he shows no mercy for the people who stand in his way.
