Never watched the original, should I?
Genuinely the best horror film of the 90s. It's deep, man.
Holy shit. Ordered 1 copy!
Let me know when you see it! There's a fantastic video essay about how brilliant it is, but I'd recommend watching it after you see the movie.



If you like Jordan Peele's work, this reboot is in amazing hands for the subject matter.

I am living for the song they used in the trailer.

Seems to be a different vibe than the original. More Get Out/Us than gothic dark.

So this film is about
the main character turning into the Candyman? Seems like a Nightmare on Elmstreet 2 kinda deal.

Pretty much. Without the gay subtext, though.

That's a better date for it to be honest. And Halloween season will be awesome this year with this, A Quiet Place II, Last Night in Soho and Halloween Kills.
