GBW Minisode #3: Candyman (2021)

Hello, and welcome to another episode of The Good, The Bad, and The What!? The show in which we discuss three films that we have deemed "good," "bad," or "what!?" within a subgenre, theme, motif, director or actor's filmography, and more! This week, Ryan and Chris kick off the "new" format (i.e. switching between a full, three-film episode and a minisode of a new release) with a discussion about Nia DaCosta's legacyquel of "Candyman." We start with our non-spoiler thoughts, with a spoiler discussion around the 13-minute mark (which we give plenty of warning about in the episode), and do our best to unpack DaCosta's ambitious take on the horror icon.  You can find this and future episodes on our website thegoodbadwhat.com. You can subscribe to our show on Apple Podcasts, Anchor.fm, Spotify, Stitcher, iHeartRadio, Google Podcasts, and more! Feel free to email us at [email protected] if you have any questions, comments, or just want to say hello. You can follow us on Twitter and Instagram @thegoodbadwhat.
