Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. The main character, Helen, is played by which actress?

Answer: Virginia Madsen

Kasi Lemmons played Bernadette, Helen's best friend. Vanessa Williams played Anne-Marie, the young African-American woman whose son was kidnapped by the 'Candyman'. Carolyn Lowery played Stacey, Helen's husband's girlfriend. Virginia Madsen was also in the movie "Electric Dreams" released in 1984, which was one of my favourite movies when I was a kid.

2. What was the Candyman's real name?

Answer: Daniel Robitaille

Daniel Robitaille was an ex-slave who was punished for falling in love with a rich (white) land-owner's daughter. He had his hand cut off, was covered in honey, then stung to death by bees. Tony Todd was the actor who played Candyman, Xander Berkley played Helen's unlikable husband Trevor, and Phillip Purcell was a professor in the movie.

3. What was the name of the baby 'Candyman' kidnapped that Helen was arrested for?

Answer: Anthony

Anthony was played by Latesha Martin.

4. What was Helen holding when Bernadette was killed?

Answer: Knife

Helen tried to yell to Bernadette not to come in, but of course she did anyway. It was after this attack that Helen's husband had her committed to a mental institution. It didn't take him long to move his girlfriend in.

5. What kind of dog did Anne-Marie own? (It had its head cut off when the baby was taken.)

Answer: Rottweiler

Helen woke up in Anne-Marie's bathroom covered in blood and holding a meat cleaver. She could hear Anne-Marie screaming, and when she went into the baby's bedroom, Anne-Marie attacked her. Helen defended herself by cutting Anne-Marie's arm with the cleaver.

It was then that the police kicked in the door to find Helen leaning over Anne-Marie with the cleaver raised over her head. Didn't look good for Helen!

6. Which famous horror writer wrote the story for "Candyman"?

Clive Barker has written many great books and movies, including "Hellraiser" (the novel was called "The Hellbound Heart"), "Nightbreed" (from the novel "Cabal"), and "Lord of Illusions".

7. Finish this quote: "I am the writing on the wall, the whisper in the ______"?

Answer: Classroom

"Without these things, I am nothing. So now, I must shed innocent blood. COME WITH ME!." This was said by Candyman to Helen while she was in one of her trance states. He also said "Be my victim." a few times during the movie.

8. What is the name of the district in Chicago that Helen and Bernadette go to, to investigate the Candyman myth?

Answer: Cabrini-Green

They visit an apartment building in Cabrini-Green, which is where they first meet Anne-Marie. Anne-Marie thinks they're cops, and isn't very friendly until she finds out they are students writing a thesis.

9. What is the name of the university Helen and Bernadette attend?

Answer: University of Illinois

The University of Illinois is based in Chicago. It was formed in 1982 by the merging of two campuses; the Medical Centre campus and the Chicago Circle campus.

10. What does the little boy throw into Helen's grave near the end of the movie?

Answer: A Hook

All the people from Cabrini-Green show up at Helen's funeral, the boy throws the hook in, then they all turn around and leave.
