Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaProduction was brought back to the Cabrini Green neighborhood where Candyman (1992) was filmed. Though the high-rise buildings have long been demolished, the Rowhouses still exist.
- GoofsHaley reads from the program describing Say My Name at the Night Driver gallery. The program reads 'In foreground, Helen Lyle: a white, privileged, graduate student whose obsession with her research into a [sic] an urban legend called, "Candyman," led to her bizarre self-emulation in the housing projects courtyard in the early 90's.' The word "emulation" is confused with "immolation", which means death by fire.

Detective Lipez: Who are you?
Anthony McCoy: I am the writing on the walls. I am the sweet smell of blood on the street. The buzz that echoes in the alleyways. They will say I shed innocent blood. You are far from innocent, but they will say you were. That's all that matters.

Featured review
Well, it has all the components - say his name five times, the hook for a hand, and the bees! And the 'puppet' animation, especially over the end credits is amazing! But the story seemed very muddled, and I'm not even sure I understand what happened at the end. I like the idea of the hive, and of Candyman standing for all the racial injustices suffered in this country, I just found the story itself to be very confusing.
But that puppet stuff - true works of art!
