Fuck off
Your lack of intelligence to understand the movie doesn't make it bad. This is an effective allegory on the dangers of organized religion.
The map only leads them to very specific places. It doesn't get them out of every encounter.
You are deeply stupid
No, it's not a fair point. The post shows a complete lack of understanding of this brilliant film
The movie is an allegory and a brilliant one at that. Your inability to understand it doesn't make the movie bad. It just makes you stupid.
If you feel sorry for Kevin, you missed the point of the movie.
I think the important thing about the ending is that Alice was having these fears and dreams of being left alone and ignored by her family. In those dreams, her family couldn't help her and sometimes couldn't see her. And that was the source of her stress.
The family thought they had closure at the end of the movie. So they decided to move and go on with their lives. Little did they know that Alice's ghost actually WAS in the house and now... they moved out and she was left in the house alone.
Well this is 8 years too late but I didn't see the film until yesterday.
The guy was very submissive. He was heartbroken when she decided to have sex with his friend when he refused the threesome. After crying over it, he became submissive again. He got in his dog form and went in there because he knows how much she likes the dog form. It was his way of submitting to what she wanted. He had done it more than once in the movie before, giving in to her by becoming the dog again.
It wasn't that they were climaxing, it was that as he submitted to her again, she didn't care. She didn't want the threesome, she just wanted the friend. She ignored him when he came into the room, even though he submitted to what she wanted. At that moment, he realized that he always was the one giving and she gave nothing in return.
I find it amusing that no one on the board gets it exactly. The segment was just called Bitch because she was a bitch. It was called Bitch because he was a bitch and he showed her what it is like to be a bitch. She wants to be bitchy, let her find out what it feels like to be a bitch and be raped by mail dogs.
It makes perfect sense. Candyman relied on his stories in order to instill fear.
"I am the writing on the wall, the whisper in the classroom. Without these things, I am nothing."
Candyman relied on belief that he existed and was committing crimes from beyond the grave in order to have power. While the gangster wasn't really Candyman, he used the name of Candyman. And once he was arrested and would go on trial, belief in the ghost Candyman would falter. People would fear him less when a gangster with his name would go to prison.
"You were not content with the stories." "I was obliged to come."
When you research an urban legend, you tend to find out it didn't really exist. Since Helen was exposing his story as nothing but a fake story, he had to defend it.
"Be my victim."
A lady researching the Candyman urban legend comes across a human gangster who uses the name. She exposes him and states that Candyman is NOT REAL. The little stopped believing in Candyman and so will others. But, then, for some strange reason, that very woman kills a dog, kidnaps a baby and murders her best friend. Then, while restrained at a psychiatric hospital, she kills an administrator and escapes.
That is a pretty bizarre story and the type of people who believed in Candyman before would start believing in him. Helen and the baby would both die in the fire, giving belief in the Candyman story.
Helen however escaped with the baby and the fire consumed Candyman. The legend became about her and not him.
