Tony Todd returned for Turi Meyer‘s Candyman: Day of the Dead, starring alongside Donna D’Errico. “The Candyman is back, trying to convince his descendent, an artist, to join him.”

As Bloody Disgusting’s Jason Jenkins wrote back in 2019, “Failing to capture the atmosphere or class of the series’ preceding entries, Candyman: Day of the Dead cheapens a previously respectable franchise with its overriding concerns with cheap gore and T&A. This film was a disappointment the first time around nearly two decades ago, and it’s aged into an even more unwatchable mess in the years since its initial release.”

Jason added, “With the exception of Tony Todd’s typically strong performance and a scant sequence or two, the enigmatic character is failed miserably by this film as a whole.”
