Candyman 3: Day of the Dead (1999) is currently available on Hulu. The storyline for this picture involves The Candyman tracking down one of his descendants and trying to convince her to join him in eternity. He will try to frame her for a series of murders so she has no choice. Can she escape the Candyman? This movie is directed by Turi Meyer (episodes of Buffy and Smallville) and stars Tony Todd (Candyman), Donna D'Errico (Brooklyn Nine-Nine), Alexia Robinson (Total Recall) and Lupe Ontiveros (As Good as it Gets). The storyline buildup in this one was pretty average, primarily because the main character's acting was horrific. The gore was still pretty solid and Todd was awesome as always. I actually really liked how this movie ended. The first 2/3rds of the movie was blah but the last 1/3rd was pretty solid and worthwhile. Overall this is an absolute must see, but a step down from the first two. I'd score this a 6/10 and recommend seeing at least once.
