Candyman (2021) _(very vague spoilers)

It wanted so bad to be Lovecraft Country and pissed out of the pot so thoroughly. It not only did unintentionally poorly in the racial commentary (as did Us, with its coded Mighty Whitey narrative), but effed up the 1992 film. It was better than the original's sequels, of course, but that's not saying much.
