THE CANDY WITCH

The Candy Witch Movie Review

Ghost hunter Reese (Jon Callaway) and his girlfriend and assistant, Kat (Abi Casson Thompson), visit a family being haunted by a ghost they dub "The Candy Witch". What we find out about the ghost, however, makes us wonder who the real bad guy is here. This low-budget flick from 2020 packs a whole lot of a lot of stuff we have seen in a lot of other movies. Needless to say, if you are coming into this anticipating something original, you won't find that here. The witch/ghost herself (Kate Lush) looks like what you would find in a medium-priced haunted house attraction.

See?

Cheap makeup aside, there is an impressive amount of gore and bloodshed in this movie, and when they bypass the even cheaper looking CGI, it's fairly impressive. The acting is what you would likely expect from a movie of this magnitude--nothing great, nothing horrible. The kills include the Candy Witch using items such as a candy cane and, my favorite, cookie cutter, so there's some sort of Christmas thing kind of going on here too. This all leads us to an ending that is abrupt and, much like the rest of the movie, forgettable.
