Certificate X Cult Film Screenings presents The Candy Snatchers

Event information

"For 16 year old Candy, dying would have been easier! What are they doing to candy?"

A long lost exploitation movie, considered a classic by all that have seen it which became a sought-after cult film due to word-of-mouth and reputation. A trio of petty criminals comprised of Jessie (Playboy Playmate and B-movie queen Tiffany Bolling), her brother, and a hulking Army vet, decide to kidnap the daughter of a local diamond mogul, innocent 16-year-old Candy. The three capture her and bury her alive with only an air pipe between her and her death. But it turns out the girl's father is really her stepfather, and couldn't care less what fate befalls her!
A difference of opinion regarding the gang's next move signals a decent into depravity with only an abused autistic boy available to save Candy! The plot flirts with rape, incest, drugs, dismemberment, and murder, but what really sets this apart from other exploitation pics of the time is that it is a really well made, quality production.
