I watched this movie because Corey Taylor is in it, however I wish I hadn't. The stories are terribly told, terribly acted, and terribly bad. Save yourself the discomfort and just watch C-SPAN for 2 hours.

It's hard to find a decent horror movie nowadays I was moderately liking this movie, the scary-clown-imp thart arced all the segments was freaky-scary. Then came the third (3rd) segment, where the boyfriend gone bad on his ex-girlfriend and looting the girl's home with his bud, was shown wearing a red MAGA hat. He could have been wearing a Yankee hat, a Red Sox hat, an Orioles hat, but no -- the liberal-left media had to insert a dig on Republicans. You'd think that horror would be one genre that could be kept "political free". So this average movie that would have gotten a 5 or a 4 star rating now gets a 1, b/c the producers had to be unprofessional -- just SMH.

It's not coherent with a very confusing wrap around in another wrap around that almost made this movie worth it. There was just too many stories, too many things not being tied together.

Can't pick a better name for the movie. It's like trick or treating and getting home emptying your bag out. A few segments are like getting full candy bars, while a couple others are like getting candy corn. It's worth a one time watch. I'll give it a 5/10 and 1 extra for the creepy clown.

On Halloween night 666 FM features Chilly Billy (Corey Taylor) and Paul (Zach Galligan) spin requested horror stories. The anthology at times has stories which cross which I like. I enjoyed the tales which had the right amount of humor and horror. The range runs from a nasty step-dad, bad kids, prostitutes, ghost hunters, a rave and a morgue to name a few. Guide: F-word. Sex. No nudity.

If you were old enough to have watched the 80s horror comedy series such as "Tales from the Crypt" (1989) or "Amazing Stories" (1985), and you were then hip enough to have seen Michael Dougherty's Halloween opus, "Trick r Treat," (2007), then you're very likely going to enjoy this modestly budgeted little gem, "Bad Candy" (2021). Directed by Scott B. Hansen & Desiree Connell, "Bad Candy" stars Zach Galligan, Corey Taylor, Riley Sutton, and is well written by the two aforementioned directors. There is quite a lot of talent here. In spite of a reasonably tight budget, this film boasts a surprising amount of gritty special effects (some conventional, some CGI) which gave the overall appearance a type of comic book vibe. "Bad Candy" is segmented into a series of tales, but unlike "Trick r Treat," they don't eventually converge, which, in this case, doesn't matter. Sometimes ambiguity is a perfect vehicle to elicit "thinking," which lately seems to be a lost art when it comes to interpreting concepts that clearly defy explanation. I think some reviewers jumped the gun with their over the top negative judgements. Time is always the wiser, and a teachable reminder that "box office bombs" like "Its A Wonderful Life" (1946) and "The Wizard of Oz" (1939) were once maligned as critical and financial failures, but they are now glowingly praised as perennial, universally adored classics.

So we watched this largely for Corey Taylor and we typically like horror anthology movies but this is a giant swing and a miss. There were a couple of entertaining moments but this thing tries too hard to be an over the top Trick R Treat without any appeal of Sam. Definitely skip.

Reminds me a lot of 'Trick 'r Treat', with a clever interwoven set of smaller stories. The cinematography is great, really hands down well done on that. The acting was convincing and I liked some of the costumes. The audio presentation and music were also excellent, nothing over the top but very fitting and an excellent sound track. There are some jokes too, I found this funny at times. Some tales at the start are classic horror/slasher but as the film plays out more and more of it starts to get strange and had me stumped trying to predict where it was going. This film has some clever writing in that regard. 7/10 enjoyable watch with lots of excellent visuals and some throw backs to classic horror.

If you skipped the political story, which was the worst one, or stripped the scene of polticial views (which contrast with the vet story), then it would have been an 8, and I would have told friends. But nope: for political BS? 1 star. Hope it fades from history.

The first few stories started off with a bang! LOVED the visuals and production design. They captured the overall Halloween "feel" 100%, the Jack 'O Lanterns, the fog, the decorated houses! Great job design team! Problem is it quickly went south less then halfway through. The necrophilia story, a gorgeous, sexy, tatted woman that nobody likes....riiiiight. The writing just got a little lazy with this and the next story (the home invasion by the Trump supporters..lol). Also the wrap-around starring Zach Galligan & Corey Taylor didn't quite connect well with the stories. Overall, this COULD'VE been a good compliment to the likes of Michael Dougherty's "Trick 'R Treat" as an every Halloween watch, but the lazily written stories make it a mixed Halloween bag of good and bad treats.
