Who can take a franchise?
(Who can take a franchise?)
Sprinkle it with blood
(Sprinkle it with blood)
Cover it with politics and a white saviour or two

The Candy Man (the candy man)
The Candy Man can (the candy man can)
The Candy Man can 'cause he mixes it with blood
And makes the world confront uncomfortable home truths about systemic racism almost 30 years ago

That's right today is an Alex-led episode (boo!), BUT he's talking about horror being a catalyst for social conciousness (yay!).

We talk about the legacy of Candyman (1992) and how forward thinking and progressive its message was, particularly in the timeframe it came out in. 

Enjoy!
