I have yet to see the Candyman remake from the year 2021, but I really liked a lot this promotional teaser which depicts the tragic backstory of the titular character via shadow puppetry.
The result is quite beautiful, depicting a harsh tale of racism and societal injustice in an incredibly stylish manner.
Without a single spoken word, it manages to deliver its message in a rather blunt manner through its haunting use of imagery.
A very creative way to promote a horror film, which captured my interest from the very first second. And personally, I think this teaser was way better than the actual trailer of the movie, which felt a bit generic in comparison.
8.5/10.
