Say his name… if you dare. In this episode of Chopping It Up, we dive into the horror classic Candyman (1992) and its chilling 2021 reimagining. From the haunting atmosphere of Cabrini-Green to the deeper themes of racial trauma, gentrification, and urban legends, we break down what makes both films terrifying, thought-provoking, and relevant. How does the original’s gothic horror compare to Nia DaCosta’s modern vision? Does Tony Todd still reign supreme? And most importantly… would you say his name five times?

Join us as we dissect the hooks, the scares, and the social commentary behind one of horror’s most iconic legends.
