![]() october horror film the devil's candy sean byrne And speaking of metal, the soundtrack is a real treat for someone like me who enjoys rock at the harder end of the spectrum with artists like Ghost, Machine Head, and Slayer. The cast is solid including Kiara Glasco as the heavy metal loving daughter. At the same time the artist father begins hearing disturbing whispers of his own.īyrne displays an excellent understand of horror and really seems to know when to go with the tropes of the genre and when to subvert them. The former resident of the house (played by genre veteran Pruitt Taylor Vince), a decidedly odd-in-a-disturbing way character who likes to play a Gibson Flying V at full volume to drown out the whispering voice he hears, returns after years of institutionalization. A mother, father, and daughter move into a big, new country home that’s had its price reduced due to some (seemingly unsuspicious) deaths that took place there. It’s central premise is the classic man-versus-devil tale, but told with an amazing flair for the suspenseful and (always nice to see in a horror film) great character development. All I can say is I hope he keeps doing what he’s doing because The Devil’s Candy is by far the best scary movie I’ve seen this Halloween season. ![]() ![]() The Devil’s Candy (2017) was written and directed by Sean Byrne who also directed the excellent 2012 horror flick The Loved Ones. ![]()
