The Bye Bye Man (2017)

The Bye Bye Man (2017) 

This garbage is a prime example of how an already flawed horror movie concept can be made even worse with studio intervention and money whoring. It's obvious that the studio had no faith in the team producing this and wanted to hedge its bet by making it a PG-13 title instead of giving it a chance with an R. I'm sure we've all seen movies that are "so bad they're good," but in the instance of The Bye Bye Man, it's so bad it makes me want to gouge my eyes out and castrate myself. This movie is a money grubbing whore of a garbage fire. It's the real reason for children developing cancer.

Whomever allowed some of these edits to make it to the big screen should never be allowed to work in the industry again, and neither should the young lead actress. She probably meant well, but she apparently is incapable of expressing any emotion with her entire face. It's almost as if someone repeatedly beat her in the head with a brick until she literally turned into one. Some of the shameless attempts to hide the gore and blood, to allow for a PG-13 rating, are so bad that it would have been better if they had simply edited in stock footage of animals hurling themselves off a cliff to their death. A better title for this "movie" would have been "Shameful Money Grab Man."

I feel bad for Carrie-Anne Moss, although she should know better by now about projects like this. The scariest part about this project was the fact that it was allowed to be made at all. Absolutely everyone involved in this project should feel ashamed of themselves.
Was the above review useful to you?
