Candyman & Fright Night (Double Feature) UK
Candyman:
A children's ghost story comes to terrifying life in this gut-wretching thriller about a graduate student whose research into modern folklore summons the spirit of the dead. Helen Lyle (Virginia Madsen) laughs when she interviews college freshmen about their superstitions. But when she hears about Candyman, a slave spirit with a hook hand who is said to haunt Chicago's notorious Cabrini-Green housing project, she thinks she has a new twist for this thesis. Braving the gang-ridden teritory to visit the site of a brutal murder, Helen arrogantly assumes Cadnyman can't really exist...until he appears, igniting a string of terrifying, tragic slayings. But the police don't believe in monsters, and they charge Helen with the grisly crimes. And only one person can set her free: Candyman.
Fright Night:
Charley Brewster is a normal American teenager whose mother thinks he watches too many late night horror films. Charley's life is pretty uneventful - until he becomes convinced that his suave, yet sinister, neighbour Jerry Dandridge (Chris Sarandon) is a vampire. No-one, least of all the police, will believe that Dandridge is the vicious killer responsible for a spate of bizzare murders. Charley finds an ally in Peter Vincent (Roddy McDowall), a former horror film star and host of TVs Fright Night Theatre, in his quest to nail the debonair bloodsucker. But then the nightmare really begins...
