Episode description
Shocktober 11: Shock from the Book of Shocks continues this week fiends and familiars as we move into another classic horror franchise. This week we say his name and talk about Nia DaCosta's 2021 take on Candyman. This legacy-sequel picks up in a renovated Cabrini-Green giving us ample material to parse through. We're talking gentrification, art and messages, on the nose criticism, and much, much more as we sink our hooks into this one. Let's just hope we don't get stung.
