The Candy Shop

The Candy Shop is centered around egocentric airbrush artist, Antwon Lemiuex. With his love of women and the female anatomy, he opens the first lingerie shop in the hood that specializes in sexy body paint - from sexy lollipop swirls to $100 bills, so you walk out feeling like a million bucks! Everyone gets entangled with CJ, the local bootleg hustler, selling everything from baby goats to dialysis machines, and superstar Kock Deisel, the epitome of a hard gangster rapper, who's out to take over the Candy Shop.

Directed by Alton Glass, The Candy Shop leans on a strong ensemble — Omar Gooding, Guillermo Díaz, Ray Stoney — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 2008.
