Viewing Notes

The new Candyman film had me wanting to revisit this since they are directly tied to the same story that starts in this movie. This movie has definitely grown on me. Neat to see the parallels in the filmmaking (ex. the overhead shots during the opening credits compared to the upward angles in the new movie). Ideally it would be cool to view both films back to back.
