Candyman
Candyman is a movie that fits a lot of themes into one concise package. A serial killer is terrorizing a low-income area of Chicago, but as it turns out, that serial killer isn't human, or even really interested in killing people. This movie digs more into the idea of systemic poverty as the ultimate crime, so much so that the socio-economic implications feel stronger than the murder itself.
Let the Right One In
Vampire movies have become a cultural scapegoat in recent years, but this one is a true horror film. When one little boy builds a crush on an undead individual, things got turned upside down quite fast. What ensues is a tale of love, loss, demons, undead terrors, and so much more. Just be sure to let the right one into your home and your heart!
