Candyman (2021)

When it’s all done, they’ll tell his story, and Candyman will live… forever. This week PJ and Derek are joined by Producer Ty as they step back up to the mirror to summon Nia DaCosta’s Candyman (2021). In this episode they explore how the film expands the mythology beyond a single monster into a chorus of voices shaped by racial trauma and artistic obsession. Reimagining the urban legend for a new generation, while interrogating legacy, gentrification, and the way violence is remembered, repeated, and repackaged. 📺
