The best uses of birthday suits in film history go more than skin deep. Candyman 1. 99. 2 Cinemassacre Productions. Wonderful review, James. I need to revisit this. This is true cinema horror drama. Very relevant to and revealing of the horrors of our society. As a kid, Ill never forget the experience of watching this film. Test your knowledge with amazing and interesting facts, trivia, quizzes, and brain teaser games on MentalFloss. This is one of the scariest films I saw as a child, perhaps the scariest that I actually watched all the way through. Most horror filmscharacters that I was afraid of as a kid was because I had heard about or glimpsed them but never actually watched their full films from start to finish. I was about 7 years old. My aunt, who was turning 1. If I wanted to join in and watch some horror movies and play some board games with some attractive young ladies that were older than me, then I had to dress up as a girl.

They watched some ghost movie, which I was too busy cutting up at the time to watch. Then they and I watched Candyman. SCARY MOTHERFUCKING SHIT That voice That whole mirror thing When the movie and party was over, they were all asleep and I was in the living room in the dark, curled up in a fetal position because I had to piss so freakin bad and I was so damn scared to go to the bathroom where there was a mirror. Finally the morning sun vanquished the fear and I was able to take that piss. Watch Garden Party Online Facebook there. For many weeks, I was afraid to go to the bathroom at night. Its so funny that I am such a fan of Tony Todds that I would now find it impossible to be scared again by that character. I see him now as a sympathetic relic, a victim, of the evils of our society. Actors Who Made Insanely Racist Statements. Racism is a huge and divisive issue in America, and around the world. While no one wants to be labeled a racist, its important to call out people who make statements that stereotype, demean, dismiss, or defame people of other races or nationalities. The purpose of these call outs isnt necessarily to punish a celebrity who said something dumbbut rather so we can all reach a greater understanding of how we discuss race, and how those discussions impact us all. Before we get started, lets be clear about a few things. First, were not saying that anyone who makes a racially insensitive statement is necessarily a terrible person. Some of the people on our list listened and learned after their unfortunate statements and moved forward better for it. Second, were NOT using the sociological definition of racism, which refers only to systemic, institutional oppression based on race. For the purpose of this list, racism is defined as simple bigotry based on race or nationality. Okay, now that were all on the same pageHere are 1. Justin Bieber. Were guessing that there arent a lot of Justin Bieber fans reading this list. E1o73nkb/tumblr_static_5wgbitfnaggsk4cgwccosc84g.jpg' alt='Candyman Full Movie' title='Candyman Full Movie' />But then, were kind of surprised that there are a lot of Justin Bieber fans to begin with. We dont blame a kid who realizes his lifes dream as a young teen for being a bit obnoxious and mouthy. But young Biebs has gone well past that. We know that hes been awful to fans on occasion, disrespected the flag of Argentina, and was unthinkably rude to a guy who was just trying to mop a floor. This Canadian singer and occasional actor makes our list for a racist joke he told even though he knew he was being filmed. For some fans, the tacit expectation that theyd be cool with a crude joke containing the N word was as awful as the joke itself. If you really want to see it, it can be found on You. Tube. Maybe we shouldnt hold teenagers to the same standard as adults, but 1. Kevin Sorbo. Remember when an unconsequenced murder in Ferguson, MO led to protests and even some rioting And then the cops showed up and proved that they dont use excessive forceby using excessive force Most of the country thought that was all terrible. Kevin Sorbo Hercules, Supergirl didnt. According to a rant on his Facebook page, Sorbo declared that the residents of Ferguson were animals and losers who blame The Man for their problems. He went on to assert that African Americans are probably sorry they elected Obama. Way to understand the big issues, Kevin. Most people, when someone is shot and killed, do tend to blame those who fired the shot rather than the one lying dead. But not Kevin Sorbo. Maybe he thinks playing fantasy characters gives him the power to know whats in the hearts of other people. Sorbo walked back his statements, a little, while suggesting that everyone should only read stories from conservative watchdog groups. James Woods. If youre a fan of grown up cartoons like The Simpsons and Family Guy, it can be easy to think that James Woods is a funny, cool guy with a good sense of humor. What you might not get from those performances is that in real life, Woods is less like a guy youd want to hang out with and more like the loser he played in Casino. Shame, that. Earlier this summer, Woods took flack for his mean spirited tweet about a trans child and his family, asserting that the child would eventually murder his parents, dismember them, and stuff them in a freezer. Charming. When hes not insulting children online, Woods complains about liberals, refers to Black Lives Matter as a hate group, and often calls anti police violence demonstrators animals. Most recently, Mr. Woods was flamed for comparing the removal of statues honoring Confederate heroes with a non existent attempt to remove the statue of the flag raising at Iwo Jima. Shaquille ONeal. Sadly, basketball great Yao Ming has had to listen to racist bullcrap from a few angles. An ESPN writer but not the editor, oddly was fired for his use of the phrase, Chink in the Armor in reference to Mings opponents. It wasnt even the first time the phrase was used by the network. Sadder, some of that racist shade came from Shaquille ONeal. In an interview, ONeal is quoted as saying, Tell Yao Ming Ching chong yang wah ah so, mocking the Chinese language with all the skill of a 3rd grade bully. Fans were shocked, the NBA threatened a fine, and Shaq was called out by news outlets at home and abroad. The only person who didnt complain was Yao Ming himselfwho essentially said that while he wasnt offended, he imagined most Chinese people would not see the humor in the statement. Hint if its a private joke between friends, maybe keep it private next time. Under enormous pressure, Shaq gave a halfhearted apology for the remark, the old IF anyone was offended, I apologize. Weak sauce, Shaq. Hulk Hogan. Is anyone really shocked that the loudmouth wrestler in a flag bandana has antiquated views on what it is to be an American Probably not. Still, its a drag to think of someone whos been idolized by children as a virulent racist. Its also a little galling that one of the instances outing him as such was a sex tape that he ended up making millions of dollars on. In 2. 01. 5, Hogan was dropped from the WWE like a racist rock after an enraged tirade about his daughter, Brooke, dating an African American man. The tirade, part of a leaked sex tape, contained numerous uses of a common racial slur, enraged fans, and forever branded him as a garbage person. A half hearted apology referred to his use of slurs, but made no mention of the actual content. Regardless of the vocab you use, keeping your children away from those of other races is pretty dang racist. Charlie Sheen. Is there anything offensive that Charlie Sheen hasnt done at some point Hes routinely dishonest, violent toward women, a nightmare to work with, intoxicated in public, and yes, racist. How For starters, Charlie Sheen is a birther, which means he joined the cadre of idiots publicly musing that our 4. President wasnt born in this country. Say it aint so, Wild Thing One might think a guy whose real name is Carlos Irwin Estevez would be cooler to people from other countries. Youd be wrong. Sheen is also a consummate drug addict and violent guy, which makes him seem far more like his character from Ferris Buellers Day Off than wed care to admit. Sheen has also used racial slurs when they made no sense, such as calling his ex, Denise Richards, the N word. Um, what When condemned, Sheen trotted out the tired line that he cant be racist because hes friends with a black personin this case, Tony Todd. Video Girl Full Movie. We have to wonder what Tony Todds fans think of him keeping such low company. At the same time, we wouldnt presume to argue with Candyman. Miley Cyrus. The concept of cultural appropriation is a tricky and divisive one. Technically, anyone who wears a bathrobe with a tie or uses Arabic numbers and letters is borrowing from another culture. Still, affluent white people affecting trends from other, often oppressed, cultures is a hot button issue for a variety of reasons. The former Disney star took the typical trajectory after leaving the networkbecoming as outrageous and provocative as she was able. Thats none of our business sips tea but the racism, on the other handyuck. In 2. 00. 9, Cyrus posed for a candid picture with friends, using fingers to pull their eyelids into a slant eyed pose commonly used to mock Asians. When she was called out, Cyrus gave a half hearted apology that was oblivious to the racist implications of the photo. Eventually, someone must have sat her down for a long conversation were guessing it wasnt Billy Ray because a few weeks later, Miley Cyrus did appear to understand the error of her ways. Her next apology seemed more sincere. John Wayne. If your Dad or Grandfather is reading this over your shoulder, now might be a good time to send them away.
