Candi’s Corner Review – Evil Dead: The Musical
by Blog Contributor Candace Cordelia There Will Be Some Blood….Evil Dead: The Musical On the fifth day since its opening, a healthy dose of people came out to see Evil Dead: The Musical, on a Sunday, which did not surprise me as Philly is a city filled with zealous horror lovers such as me, and from the looks of the crowd, I was surrounded by avid Evil Dead fans as well. I didn’t know what to expect with this musical, except a lot of singing, dancing, and blood. I was right! Well, except for the lots of blood part.

What A: RUSH (Directed by Ron Howard)
I had every real intention of being a race car driver when I grew up. For my 6th birthday, I got the cutest yellow race car, the kind you can sit in and drive. Today it would have been electrically powered, but back then it had foot pedals. Then as I got older, each Christmas, I would ask for a bigger and better race track. Before drifting off to sleep, I’d imagine the controls in my hand and how great it was going to be to speed around that track and beat my sister. At the arcade, I cared not a wit for Pacman or Donkey Kong, I went…
