“Who can take a sunrise, sprinkle it with dew
Cover it with chocolate and a miracle or two
The Candy Man, oh the Candy Man can
The Candy Man can ’cause he mixes it with love and makes the world taste good.”

I love that they finally made a wholesome family film based off that lovable Sammy Davis Jr. song!….

Wait…, what? Okay, I’m being told that this movie is not what I mentioned above, but is in fact from a sick and twisted story that Clive Baker (of Hellraiser fame) wrote.

Hmmm…I guess I shouldn’t have just popped this dvd in, left the room, and let those kids I was babysitting, watch it…
