Will you dare to say his name? Nearly 30 years after the original cult classic (https://bit.ly/vicep337) Candyman returns to the big screen but not in the way you think. Captain Nostalgia and Black Nerd Magic deconstruct this new film's social commentary on racial injustice, civil unrest, its connections to the original film and much more.
