Detailed item info
Movie description
Folklorics graduate student Helen Lyle's (Virginia Madsen) thesis research leads her into the urban underworld of Chicago's Cabrini-Green housing projects, whose residents are genuinely terrified of "Candyman" (Tony Todd), a legendary figure with a hook for a hand. Skeptical, she "summons" him in front of a mirror and discovers with horror that he's real and wants her to join him in his "mythic" world; when she refuses, he murders those in her wake, leaving her to be charged with the crimes. She tries to explain who the real culprit is, but her efforts fail, and authorities commit her to a mental hospital. This taut horror thriller is based on "The Forbidden," by Clive Barker, who also executive-produced.

Credits
Producer:Alan Poul, Sigurjon Sighvatsson, Steve Golin
Cast:Kasi Lemmons, Xander Berkeley

Sound:HiFi Sound, Stereo Sound,

Notes
Shot in DeLuxe color.

Although the film credits say the film is based on a story by Clive Barker, it is also loosely derived from an actual series of murders that took place in a Chicago housing project.  Finding that in a certain building two apartments' bathroom mirrors backed up on each other with nothing in between, a killer was able to rip through the vanity to get from one apartment to another.

Editorial reviews
"...The imagination of Clive Barker is authentically strange....[Madsen is] enterprising..."
New York Times - p.C10 - Janet Maslin (10/16/1992)

"...The Candyman cometh, and terror fans rejoice. Finally, a modern-day bogeyman who pierces the psyche..."
USA Today - p.7D - Susan Wloszczyna 

"...Madsen and Lemmons, courageous and plucky, make sympathetic heroines..."
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert (10/16/1992)
