Hard Candy

Hard Candy Title Card

Hard Candy Still

“This is what they make those federal laws for, Jeff. This is officially sick.”

A spectacular movie, made for less than a mil, but doesn’t look like it even though it plays out like the indiest of indie films, unforgiving, intelligent, and well acted, it’s a wonderful piece of cinema — if you haven’t seen it go in knowing nothing about it, not even the blurb, there’s a twist very early on that’s explosive if you don’t know.
