Taunted by numerous stories and rumors over the years, a woman's attempts to disprove the Candyman legend inadvertently releases him upon her friends and forces her to try to stop him from continuing on.This actually turned out to be quite a bit of fun and is much better than expected. One of the better elements here is the fact of this one managing to tie in the family legacy incredibly well, perhaps even better than any of the other entries throughout here. The relationship itself is one thing, but bringing in the visions of the mother as well as the connection through them makes this one so entertaining and manages to really connect this one quite well. That brings up the main storyline point here with this one brining the blood and gore through some rather inventive and enjoyable encounters here. The more chilling and enjoyable ones are based on the nightmares so this one's more thrilling moments come from the supernatural elements like the opening attack in the bathroom, the confrontation with the deformed mother coming from the bloody tub despite being in the public bathroom and the finale in his hive-home for the final struggle causes this one a lot of fun as this all comes off as exciting, extended action scenes build around pretty big scares. Other scares, as in the patrol car ambush or the gallery attack show-off the ability of this one to use the supernatural antics in the real works do it makes for a series of pretty intriguing and chilling scenes that also bring about some nice fore as well. It does have a few flaws, the main one being the rather overdone manner where the killer's targets toward the main victim here spends the whole film tormenting them instead of actually doing something about it. Despite the repeated claims of wanting her as one of the victims, he never really makes any effort to go after her and instead utilizes the psychological torment of going after her friend and family to get the job done which really makes no sense since he clearly has plenty of time to go after her instead. Otherwise, this one comes off just fine as it is.Rated R: Graphic Violence, Graphic Language, Nudity, and a brief, mild sex scene.

Perhaps you are wondering if there is a reason this is the last flick in the series for eleven years by now. Easy: this stinks. What do you mean, "that's not enough"? Fine. This should never have been a franchise to begin with. The original was brilliant, far surpassing any reasonable expectations in terms of substance for the genre that has an undeservedly poor reputation. These two both spell out what the first did so well at hinting at(are movie-goers this stupid? If they are, we really should shift money from Hollywood to education), have Todd(who, himself, did not like this) use his awesome voice(solely responsible for one of the two stars I award it) to deliver lines that no one would listen to if anyone else(well, maybe James Earl Jones, and a handful of others could do it, too) spoke it, *and* show us flashbacks to *things we already know happened*!(again, does this pass for storytelling now? This time, it seems to be to incorporate additional raunchy material) This opens with a half-naked hot chick, and if you find yourself not able to stand her right away(don't feel bad, none of us can take her seriously), stop watching immediately. She's the lead, you're not going to be given a reason to care about her(other than, I guess, her appearance), and she doesn't get any better as this goes on. Like the plot(what there is of one), it only gets worse as it goes, and increases in stupidity. Does she look familiar? She was a playmate, on Baywatch, and... oh, wait, that's it. Yeah, that's why you didn't recognize her face. She does what we know she can do, look good... and nothing else(oh, and scream... that, she can do, too). Other than Tony, Prison Break's Brad Bellick is the only person resembling an actor giving an actual performance in this(the kid is atrocious, and she isn't alone). This follows the second, and instantly a simple application of logic destroys it. The girl has now grown up... so either that one took place twenty years before it was made, or this one is set... well, at least ten years from now or so. Don't let all that futuristic technology frighten you. This so phones in the retelling of the myth at the beginning, a trend this follows from the '95 one, that you have to wonder why these people were making it at all, if they were so indifferent to it. The rules are changed(don't worry, this, too, awkwardly works in people saying the name five times to a mirror), and I hear the hook is, as well, though I can't tell. Our titular villain has a genuine motivation, and it makes so much sense that the only way I can see anyone siding against it is a lack of abstract thinking. Every character is obnoxious and most are powerfully forgettable. This isn't creepy(a couple of attempts are downright laughable) and there is no atmosphere, if it does try for them. It has a ton of jump-scares that don't pay off. The FX aren't awful, if they don't have an effect on the audience, as there is nothing in this we can get into. It moves at a snail's pace(or seemed like it, as *nothing* happened!), and its running time of 85 minutes is also what it is too long by. There is a lot of bloody violence, some gore and sexuality, and a little nudity. The DVD comes with a theatrical trailer, a minimal photo gallery and one of the lousiest menu systems I've experienced. I recommend this to those of an endlessly optimistic persuasion. Everyone else, save yourselves the pain. As with the recent remake of Romero's classic, it is quite frankly not The Dead's Day. 2/10

I was kinda looking forward to seeing how they ended the Candyman trilogy and the story actually looked entertaining. I remember when I was younger getting a peek at the movie on HBO, but I think I remember falling asleep, so it was at least something I could put to rest of what the rest of the movie was about. Candyman 3: Day of the Dead turned out to be an ordinary sequel with nothing to remember and it wasn't up to par with the original Candyman.Caroline, the great great grand daughter of Candyman, is still haunted by the dreams of what her family and Candyman had to go through. No one believes her of course that he is still real, Candyman is back though and he is murdering her friends one by one while she gets the blame. She tries to uncover the legend and figure out what he wants from her, but she might end up loosing the only true friend of her's.This film was sadly typical and even for a horror movie it was plain pathetic, I do like a little cheesiness every once in a while, but for a great story like Candyman, this was really sad. Well, I can see why they didn't make a fourth installment to the Candyman series, big surprise there. Well, at least I'm done... or am I? *Insert cynical laughter here* 2/10

Candyman 3 day of the dead is pretty much one of the best horror movies you can find. The plot is not any thing special because it is pretty much the same plot as candyman 2 farwell to the flesh but the movie itself completely makes up for it believe me. This movie is about a women named Caroline(Donna D'Errico) who is an ancestor to the candyman(Tony Todd). Candyman wants to bring Caroline back to the grave with him. This movie is probably the second goriest movie in the series behind the original candyman. I would highly recommend this to a fan of Candyman or Scream. I give this 2 thumbs up.Roosterz review for parents, My ratings are either Minor,Mild,Moderate,Heavy,Strong,Graphic or pervasive.Sex:Moderate Violence:Graphic Nudity:Moderate Gore:Graphic Language:Heavy.
