And now...Candyman being remade?!
August 15, 2008
Sony Pictures is reportedly considering remaking their 1992 horror cult classic Candyman, based on the character created by novelist Clive Barker in his story The Forbidden. According to Shock Till You Drop, Sony wants to exploit their brand-name horror icon the way that other studios have brought (or are bringing) back Leatherface, Jason, Michael Myers, and Freddy Krueger. The site adds that no writer or director is set yet, but rumor has it that the Candyman, a.k.a. Daniel Robitaille, will be white in the remake. He was played in the three previous installments by African-American actor Tony Todd. |

What the HELL is wrong with people? |
Say it isn't so....I really liked this movie. A remake is going to murder it...
|
Haha- I think it's funny that the same people who give me grief over my opinions of remakes of classic horror films get upset when films from THEIR chilhoods are getting remade.
|
one of my all time favs.... I couldn't watch horror movies for years because of it.. and if they make the dude white.. ... someone better burn the studio down...

OY VEY
First they make Jim West black...now this...WTF everybody knows The Candy Man is black http://www.gmmy.com/crooners/sammy/SAM1.JPG |
Heyyyyy... they could use Christina Aguilera's latest as the theme tune!
|
Wtf is candyman without Tony Todd? The whole reason the candyman was killed from the first place was because he was black.
|
I can't wait for the House of 1000 Corpses remake.
