CANDYMAN (1992) is not your standard slasher film. While it evokes terror and a haunting feeling, it is also loaded with social commentary that goes beyond normal horror movies tropes. The admiration for film goes hand-in-hand with the emotionally-charged, enlightened story, and leaves us never forgetting the undying legend of CANDYMAN. We’ll be goin’ all Clive Barker for this episode! ▶️Synopsis: While researching urban legends for her graduate thesis, Helen (Virginia Madsen) becomes captivated by a story about a boogeyman named Candyman (Tony Todd). Dispelling rumors of his actual existence to terrified locals, Candyman surfaces to frame Helen for murders and slowly swallows her into his everlasting myth. ⏩⏩Discussions include: A brief history on Chicago’s Cabrini-Green, the setting for CANDYMAN and why the original Clive Barker story was adapted; the real-life intensity shooting on location, combined with atypical special effects and acting techniques used to develop on-screen realness; why it was necessary to have the most profound connection between actors; cultural fears, prejudice and how CANDYMAN relates to reality. **Starring Virginia Madsen, Tony Todd, Kasi Lemmons, Xander Berkeley. Directed by Bernard Rose.** ▶️**PICKS OF THE WEEK** —Justin’s Pick: LORD OF ILLUSIONS (1995): When a fanatic magical cult reincarnates their ruthless leader, a private investigator is sought out to protect a famous magician and his wife from certain evils headed their way. **Starring Scott Bakula, Famke Janssen, Kevin J. O’Connor, Daniel von Bargen. Directed by Clive Barker.** —Lindsay’s Pick: NIGHTBREED (1990): A troubled man seeks out Midian, a mythical world haunting his dreams, and inhabited by demon social outcasts known as the Nightbreed. Simultaneously, his serial killing psychiatrist seeks to set him up for murders and destroy all the Nightbreed. **Starring Craig Sheffer, David Cronenberg, Anne Bobby. Directed by Clive Barker.** ▶️MURRAYMOMENT: After reaching a low moment in life, Billy is pulled from the brink upon seeing an inspirational painting. ▶️FINAL THOUGHTS:  Philip Glass’ uniquely atmospheric score and the immense appreciation for CANDYMAN’S final scenes.

The Ghouls are back with special guest, Simon, just in time for Black History Month! The gang screened HORROR NOIRE: A HISTORY OF BLACK HORROR directed by Xavier Neal-Burgin on Shudder. On this episode, Ghoul Chat discusses the uncomfortable racial undertones, stereotypes and tropes that permeated black history in horror cinema from the early years of BIRTH OF A NATION to the recent GET OUT directed by Jordan Peele. The team reviews what's new in the genre world before diving into the main topic; Alexz, Jeanette and Simon give a quick, spoiler free review of GLASS. No one really cared for the artsy horror show that is VELVET BUZZSAW. Will and Jeanette started watching Netflix's new zombie horror series KINGDOM. Lastly, everyone discusses their latest binges in true crime docs: the appalling ABDUCTED IN PLAIN SIGHT and transfixing and f**ked up TED BUNDY TAPES, along with the backlash of the corresponding trailer for EXTREMELY WICKED, SHOCKINGLY EVIL AND VILE (why is the title this long?)

The excellent new documentary, HORROR NOIRE: A HISTORY OF BLACK HORROR, is a love letter to the rich, powerful history of Black American artists in horror cinema. The story is told by the artists who made the movies, and they give their unflinching perspectives on the past, present, and future of black horror. Join me as I speak with Executive Producers Dr. Robin Means Coleman and Tananarive Due about their documentary, Black horror, and their "First Kisses" with horror! Dr. Coleman is currently the Vice President and Associate Provost for Diversity, and a Professor in the Department of Communication at Texas A&M University. She has also written many books about media and the cultural politics of Blackness, including the book that is the source material for this documentary. Tananarive Due is a filmmaker, author of 12 novels and educator steeped in black horror and Afrofuturism.
