DeVour (2005) The build-up had me intrigued along with a likeable Jensen Ackles’ performance and my soft spot for Shannyn Sossamon, but once it revealed where it was heading and including the pay-off it sort of lost me. Some interesting ideas, although not particularly fresh, but in the end it becomes an unfulfilled mess.

THE DEVIL'S NIGHTMARE 1971 Erika Blanc can look damn creepy with her eyebrows hidden and minimal makeup.

Some interesting ideas, although not particularly fresh, but in the end it becomes an unfulfilled mess.  and it wasn't until we joined Amazon in 2007 I finally got it. I used to forget the names of a lot of movies I rented from the video shop especially when they sold them but thanks to the internet that rarely happens now. We haven't watched it yet but plan on re-watching the 'Candyman' movies starting tonight. 
 I still kinda enjoyed it, but I think my expectations were different at the beginning. I thought i was going to see something like ‘Brainscan’ or ‘Stay Alive’, and it does play out like ‘Brainscan’ in the first half... but the latter half went away from that angle, and didn’t have me entirely gripped when we learn what was at play. Funny enough, I actually purchased the DeVour DVD from a video ezy store closing down sale last month. Love the first candyman and the following sequel is solid enough. However I can’t bring myself to watch Part 3.

The Nightcomers (1971)
Mostly well-acted (Marlo Brando, Thora Hird and especially Stephanie Beacham) and nothing subtle (well it is Michael Winner directing) about this psychosexual period drama that plays as a prequel to Henry James classic "Turn of the Screw".

Sole Survivor (1983)
Other than some scratchy performances you get a nicely eerie, and deliberately slow-burn low-budget supernatural horror film. Would make a good double screening alongside David Hemming’s adaptation of The Survivor 1981.

Insidious (2010/11) - 8/10 (rewatch) Still a very atmospheric and well-made film. I understand the criticism about it being too much like Poltergeist, but I viewed it as a throwback/homage. Best of the series.  |

I think I still own the VHS of this film. I remember seeing a VHS copy with a cover that sort of rips off ‘Fright Night’.

However I can’t bring myself to watch Part 3. You also had the likes of Shannyn Sossamon and Dominique Swan. It might have fallen through the cracks for Ackles’ fans, due to it being a straight-to-video/DVD release? I think I read something on this board couple months back of a Candyman remake. Doesn’t really stir up much of an interest for me though. Tony Todd is so iconic in the role. His booming voice, and towering presence is the Candyman for me. But in this day and age, it doesn’t surprise me it’s getting a remake especially within the context of this story. Curious about Clive Barker’s involvement, if any. Wonder if Blumhouse would get him involved with Hellraiser again, like they did with Carpenter for the latest Halloween film?
