    This is a boring b slasher. Even with some horror icons this just feels so bland. The look of the killer is probably the best thing in this. The acting isn't that good. The dialog is bad. The kills are bland with crappy cg blood. Even though this is only about an hour and…

    Really enjoyed the lore and setup here, it builds great Halloween vibes and delivers some really enjoyable kills along the way. However, it feels a bit wasteful with its runtime, and the sluggish pacing never quite matches the energy of the premise. It came so close to…

    We have finally arrived at the generation of filmmakers who have seen Rob Zombie's Halloween before John Carpenter's.

    Candy corn is polarizing. There are those who say it is bad. And there are those objectively correct individuals who understand that it is an integral, delicious thread that weaves together the warm, comforting quilt that is Halloween.  You can expect no such debate about…

    To be fair, that kid seemed mentally deranged BEFORE they put the voodoo powers in him.  I love that a group got together and put this into the Halloween movie realm.  -The decorations are old vintage classics. -The pumpkin themes and candy corn were dope af.  -Pancho…

    What a disappointment. The acting was pretty bad, the constant slow motion reactions and scenes were annoying, and the over dramatic sound score was irritating. The dialogue was pretty terrible as well.

    Was hoping I'd be able to add Candy Corn to my yearly Halloween rotation but I guess not. One of my favorite horror icons Tony Todd was in this film for maybe 10 mins and did absolutely nothing of note. Pj Soles made an brief appearance too, sitting at a desk and knodding a…

    Josh Hasty's Candy Corn

    Technically there were characters and a plot. And the kills certainly killed people. Would’ve given it a meh if it wasn’t for the ending. The one decently-written character gets killed off-screen. No, just no.

    The acting is trash. The story isn’t fully there. But the kills are great and for that it gets a thumbs up.
