Synopsis 

The Blind Man of the first movie is back, living in a run-down mansion with a daughter he’s raising as a survivalist loner. The little girl, named Phoenix, of course just wants to be a normal kid, and has begun pushing back against her father’s restrictive ways. Meanwhile, a greasy crime boss in the neighborhood has set his sights on Phoenix and has sent some goons on an errand to kidnap the girl. Guess how well that turns out for them...

Next up, it’s a remake we’ve all been pretty excited for. It’s a name that horror fans have feared for years…that’s right, it’s Candyman!
