Where to start? The "English" folks that all sound 'Murican? - The painfully rigid dialogue, (that no one speaks like?) The "did I miss the plot" feeling? Gave up after 40minutes. Bad bad movie.

Decent, quiet, and slower paced, The Candy Witch is more about human failings than the supernatural (although it is there). Subtle approach keeps the trappings of a haunting ghost to a minimum, and that only makes the plot more the focus. Nothing new here, but a decent watch.

Good for a gorefest, if that's what you're after. The witch is damn ugly, effects state-of-the-art, and tortured suffering realistically acted, but the paranormal investigations are really just a tangential trendy touch and plot revelations long expected before they finally happen.

After hearing reports of a local haunting, a ghost hunter and his girlfriend decide to head over to investigate where they find evidence that a malicious spirit called The Candy Witch is haunting the family for a past indiscrimination against her and must protect them from the spirit. For the most part, this one was a solid and enjoyable effort. Among the brightest aspects here is the general air of dread and suspense throughout which is highly enjoyable. There's some fantastic atmosphere created here through the witch's sudden appearances and stalking unaware victims which are often shot in the dark or under a sudden change of the situation, making the opening sequence of the woman trying to find a potential disturbance only to be confronted by the being, a fine series of encounters inside the house as they set up their investigations or the series of appearances around the village feature some chilling moments. That turns into plenty of fun once this one lets loose and decides to move away into more vicious encounters. Even though it's nonlethal, the bathtub encounter with the blood in the water and the figure standing over him gets quite creepy, and the series of attacks throughout the rest of the film are just as good. The theme of using candy as killing tools is quite original as it manages to produce some inventive kills and attacks which is a rather novel time. The last plus here is the fun investigation angle being employed here, where there's a fun mystery about the true nature of the haunting and what's going on in the family's experiences, making for some enjoyable elements in the film. There are some issues with this one. Among its biggest factors is the completely underwhelming and barely noticeable main player in the film who doesn't do anything special to showcase his supposed abilities. Much is made about the gift he's supposed to have, yet there's very little evidence of that throughout here, settling instead for having him sense something is off yet nothing more happens, it's dropped entirely to focus on the girlfriend who's much more proactive and he comes off bland as a result. As well, the films' obvious low-budget limitations shine through where the overall lack of gore in the kills, the weak effects and overall look of this one just screams low-budget indie. This might not be a true detriment to some but it's enough to lower this one somewhat. Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Violence, Graphic Language and a clothed sex scene.

Lea and reese were only 2 that have any acting talent in the whole movie. Slow and boring throughout. The only thing scary about this movie is the way the rest of the actors look and acted.

Story wise this film was pretty good and some and I mean some of the acting passable but the film had so much wooden acting and boring parts in between the scary scenes that it was as if you are watching two movies. The mum who was getting haunted was the best actor in the whole film, some if the supporting actors were passable but my problem was with the main actor: Jon Callaway boy was he bad, his acting was so wooden I thought there was a staircase in the film, yes that's how wooden he was. Also what the heck was that hair he had, I thought it had it's own role in the movie. Also has this man had botox or what, that look he had with his forehead always with the same creases in it, it never moved. Being the main actor his scenes either made me laugh at how bad he was or I was so bored that by the time the scare scenes came I wasn't bothered anymore. All in all a total let down. Good scare scenes but a boring movie with a pointless story in between the horror. Also for a better movie next time, GET A BETTER MAIN ACTOR NOT SOMEONE FROM IKEA. Don't bother.

Ruth (Heather Jackson ) request the assistance of paranormal investigator Reece (Jon Callaway ). Reece has "the gift" that his father had which got his father killed. They are investigating "The Candy Witch" who was a maid at the household and then left. She was accused of doing horrible things. The case was in part paranormal and in part an investigation into facts. The witch ghost was Kate Lush with makeup. No special effects there. The big negative I felt was the lack of character of Reece. This is apparently what the script writer wanted, but it was boring. Guide: F-word. Sex. No nudity.

Two ghost hunters have been summoned to protect a family against something known as The Candy Witch. This might be their hardest case yet, filled with so many twists and turns, as this evil curse begins to kill nearly everyone connected to it. Writer-director Rebecca J.Matthews also made the amazingly titled Pet Graveyard and has movies named Witches of Amityville Academy (my OCD for watching every movie with Amityville in its title is my curse, much worse than any Candy Witch), Jurassic Island, Bats: The Awakening and Cam Girls in the works. Great names. Hopefully they are all better films than this. That said, someone gets killed with boiling chocolate and another with cotton candy. I've never seen that, so it has that going for it.
