Still a fun watch for nostalgia sake
The Candyman 3: Day of the Dead Blu-ray has a 1080p transfer that is overall a pleasant affair, but not a knockout. The film appears to be derived from a dated master that has not had a huge amount of work done to it. From scene to scene, the film can look either incredibly clear and nuanced or a bit soft and lacking fine detail. However, this is the best that the film has ever looked on home entertainment. The audio quality is decent, but the film itself is not a good movie. It has a meandering story and wooden performances, but Tony Todd's dedicated performance brings some much-needed energy to the feature. The real treat for fans is the extensive bonus features, including interviews with Todd and the rest of the team. Overall, the Candyman 3: Day of the Dead Blu-ray is a decent release with a good selection of bonus features.

Worth It
Glad Best Buy seems to always carry new Vestron Video releases. Lived up to expectations per usual!

A new life for a maligned sequel
So word on the street (my own opinion and comments I've read) is that this movie is a good deal better than people remembered it being. I bought this blu-ray to complete my Candyman collection and to cautiously give the movie another look. It really was a pleasant surprise as it held up better than I remember. I almost wonder if its original presentation -- straight to VHS or cable airings, all in cropped 4:3 standard definition quality, is what mostly gave this the reputation of being significantly worse than the first two entries. Personally, I enjoy this movie more than the second. Disc gives a good presentation of the movie with a nice amount of extra features and an entertaining and informative commentary track. Recommended! If you like any of the other Candyman films, give this one a chance.

A worthy addition to the Vestron line
Not the best sequel in the world, but its good to complete your collection and has entertainment value. Wanted to comment on the bluray, Vestron does a great job, likely the best this release will ever receive.

Be My Victim Part III
After years of waiting, the third Tony Todd led-Candyman film is on blu-ray. Would recommend.
