Don't see it Don't Rent it. Don't see it Don't Rent it....

You haven't lived till you've been in a theater with the ultimate combo of screen talker, underage kids, and inappropriate food eaters. I shit you not, went to see the Americanized version of The Grudge... theater 70% empty... and this pale woman had 5 kids and a Publix grocery bag in the back row. Not slightly underage kids either... ages 4-7. Movie starts, previews go rather quietly... then it starts. She hands a bag of chips to each kid... and not the snack size. Crinkle crinkle crinkle "Oh hell no, don't go taking that job Sarah Meeechelle Gellaaaaaaar..." Screaming kid, crying kid, whiny kid, kid who's decided to make a serial killer face mask out of his crinkly bag of chips... and eerily quiet kid who never blinks and is always looking directly at you when you dart your eyes at the eternal disturbance. Halfway mark I hear the rustling of another large brown paper bag, and the scent of fried chicken fills the theater. WHERE DID SHE GET THAT OTHER BAG?!? HOW DID SHE GET IT IN THE THEATER?!?! WHY IS THE KID WITH A BAG ON HIS HEAD RUNNING UP AND DOWN THE AISLE?!?!?! Then again that was in South Florida, which as we all know has it's own laws of physics... so some of that was kind of expected. Just. not. all. at the same time!

“Shitting your pants at ‘The Bye-Bye Man’ is the same as shitting your pants at ’Oversexed Rug-Suckers From Mars’.” - Brad Jones, 2017.

Allison's sparkly jacket is everything in this video

The Bye Bye Bye Man, starring Justin Timberlake.

8:08 *"HAHAHAHAHAHA* -- What if this whole thing was like a con job..." That was some of the sharpest mood whiplash I've ever seen 😆

The Bye-Bye Man 2: Murder Bye The Book The Bye-Bye Man 3: Byeble Study The Bye-Bye Man 4: Goes Offroad Byeking

This is WAY more entertaining than the movie. I also dig Brad's Bugs Bunny beanie and Allison's jacket.

It wasn't until halfway through this review that I realized there's a fourth person in the backseat. Props to them for being that still for that long.

That reminds me of the time when a friend of mine and myself went to see Rob Zombie's Halloween 2 on opening night. The theater was chock full of chatting teenagers, a lot of them looked like they were 12 years old. It was like a migraine headache in movie theater form. The movie was ultra confusing due to the constant never ending stream of 100 decibel chatter. When the movie was over I turned over to my friend and said, "I now know why Michael Myers kills." A week later I went to a different theater to see the movie again, this time in a quieter theater. The movie was still confusing. So I came to the conclusion that Rob Zombie's Halloween 2 was not really a good movie.

Is that bye bye man in the right back seat?

It took me so long to realize that was an ear flap on Brad's hat. I thought he had a raw chicken sausage glued on there for like two minutes.

my worst crowd was for Shin Godzilla. some soccer mom brought her brood of 5 children between 6-12, and everytime godzilla was on screen these children would laugh and scream, and during the slower parts with the political intrigue and such they would just chitchat about how boring it was and kick my seat. the mother didn't say a word to these kids the whole time. Best part was i was complaining about them to my friend in the parking lot, and it turns out they parked right next to us and the mother heard and was giving me this dirty stare. Stared right back at her like "bitch you fucking heard me" and she eventually pulled out and left. moral of the story: leave your shitty kids at home.

I can tell you why it's only on one screen in town: Because it's called "Bye Bye Man".

When I first saw the poster for The Bye Bye Man, my first reaction was "Hobo Slender Man."

The Bye Bye Man sounds like something that was named by children.

Strokemon was scarier than this.

Shitty movie aside, that jacket is spectacular.

Can't wait for the sequel The Hey Hey Man.

So this movie, The Farewell Farewell Chap... isn't good?

Being an usher for this film was pain. Sorry you guys had to go through that. All PG-13 horror films do this.

Isn't The Bye Bye man just a version of Slenderman that couldn't get the right to use the name or likeness? Hell the literal trailers showed pictures straight from the original creepypasta but using the Bye Bye Man instead.

The Bye-Bye Man sounds like a name of a Spy Kids villain

So, basically, it's Candyman, but he's white and has a stand? 😂

brads bugs bunny hat is my spirit animal

The second I heard they cut this from a hard R to a soft PG-13, I knew I wasn't in for this movie. I think the worst audience I ever saw a movie with was Son of the Mask. You know an audience has to be bad when you wish they'd shut the fuck up during a horrible movie.

I love seeing Brad reply to people's comments on every upload Beneath that gorgeous hunk of a man is a very sassy core

They should make the monster a female in the next one and call it "Girl, Bye".

I only just realized there is a second person in the back seat

Their description of the audience is why I never watch horror movies in cinema.

did she come back from a Bruno mars music video?

I just noticed that Brad's hat has ears. I love it even more now!

I sat next to a 4 year old during the screening of Wolf Of Wall Street.

Funnily enough the Bye Bye Man is played by Doug Jones who played Pan/the Pale Man in Pan's Labyrinth. Quite a step down.

Someone brought a baby to Django Unchained.

this is why i go to movies at 4 pm on weekdays. me and a bunch of senior citizens at the early bird shows

Every time I see Brad and Allison are together I remember Cinema Snob accidently punching Obscurist Lupa in the snoz at the end of their review of Asylums version of Sherlock Holmes.

Allison's jacket looks like a Michael Jackson glove

One of my favorite (if not my favorite) midnight screening review ever! Have watched this like 10 times, never gets out

The ICUP Man

It must be really hard for the hidden person in the backseat to hold his laughter.

The pg-13 rating in horror movies is the most annoying thing ever. I feel like the industry is holding back just so they can grab more money from the younger audiences, thus making the movies more sinister like instead of being more gorey.

The sequel should just be called, "Give us your money, you mindless, popcorn-eating f*ckers." from the movie, "Idiocracy": "And that's all it was for 90 minutes. It won eight Oscars that year, including best screenplay."

Pretty creative name for a movie. "The Bye Bye Man" Worse audience then Transformers 3? Whoa. You were really really pissed in that review. Also always- nice to see Alison

I have been to so many opening nights and big teen film events and I've never in my life seen a police officer there to keep tabs on people. Holy SHIT that must have been a horrible crowd. You guys definitely deserved those free passes.

that guy in the backseat has the superpower of staying still

the Hash-Slinging Slasher is a more dignified horror name

I had a similar theater experience with Krampus. Literally EVERYONE in the theater was talking throughout the entire film, people were still filing into the theater 30 minutes in, on their phones, and asking questions out loud that could have been answered if they paid any attention to the movie. A large amount even started to walk out five minutes before the ending. It's probably best to avoid PG-13 rated horror movies at 7pm on a weekend.

"I can sit on the keyboard and get SOMETHING (from the search engine)..." Anyone with a cat and a computer can attest to the truth of this statement.

Maybe they thought it was The Bye Bye Felicia Man

I didn't realize there was someone directly behind Brad in the backseat until nine minutes into the review.

nice review but it only took me 6 or 7 minutes before i noticed there were four of you in the car lol

You guys. I LOVE this review so much. I just got out of hospital again and feeling miserable, stuck in bed so decided to re-watch this one and I am literally laughing out loud. Thank you so much. Y'all are awesome.

Lol, I'm glad you guys are in Springfield. When this happened in Memphis, TN there were fights in the parking lot. But no gunshots, so yay?

So, this monster is basically that candle guy from Freakazoid but shitty?

Carrie-Ann Moss? Doug Jones? Faye Dunaway was in this too apparently! What was the script to "The Bye Bye Man" just too appealing?

Bye Bye Miss American Pie Man

Nice jacket, Allison! Bringing some of that 80's flair to The Bye Bye Man!

It was amazing hearing you rant for half an hour.

Sounds like the train is a cousin of the truck that haunts Nicholas Cage.

"Hey, Scotty!" "Bye Bye Man!" *freeze frame but horrible shit happens*

In the UK, with a gorgeous tiny country cinema (reworked from a pre-war theatre). We have wine and coffee there. Some kids tried to act like in your movie once (at '300'). We turned around and TOLD them to shut up during the sex scene. They shrank down in their seats and stayed quiet for the rest of the movie 😂😎

God it's been a while, I've forgotten how much I've missed January episodes of Midnight Screenings! This is hilarious!

Allison Come on that jacket belongs to ABBA & everyone knows it. You stole it. Now I realise that we can all be tempted to be the Dancing Queen. Still I think it would be best for everyone involved if you just went back to the 70´ties & said sorry & gave it back. No one will benefit from 70´ties fashion making a return...Trust me

People using flashlight in a movie hall drives me crazy. Like the light from the screen is not enough for these blind people.

Bye Bye Hard 2: Bye Bye Harder; Bye Bye Hard With A Vengeance; Live Free Or Bye Bye Hard.

I feel sorry for you guys. Why can't theaters have signs that say "Don't be rowdy. Be polite." or have a bumper like the one for no smoking, no recording, or texting. That like rule one at a theater, sit down and shut up!

is that Phelan sitting next to Allison or do they just have a dead body sitting in the car with them?

I love the From Dusk till Dawn references

The Pee-pee-poo-poo Man

Can't wait for the sequel: The Bye Bye Bye Man, staring N*SYNC.

The Bye Bye man was directed by a woman named Stacy Title. Her last work was a 2006 movie called Snoop Dogg's Hood of Horror. She only has two other moves to her name, both released in the mid-90s. Were we really expecting anything with this shit?

I am now so, so glad the theater I work at isn't getting the Bye Bye Man. I do have to watch the trailer a dozen or so times a day in the lobby, so that's all the experience I think I need with this movie. Thank you all for letting us laugh at your pain.

I want a crossover with Prom Night movies. Something like "Hello Mary Lou: Bye Bye Man 2. Also, Brad, the villain in this movie is kind of like Boogeyman from Boogeyman (2005). He looks similar to that creature, except he's not done in bad CGI. The coat jump scare is also similar to a scare in Boogeyman. Not to mention how there's that whole thing in Boogeyman 3 where the monster will hurt people the more they know about him, if they believe in him etc. Plus, all those simiarities to Blair witch 2 you mention. So, the lesson we learned here is: taking elements from bad horror movies won't make your movie better.

Please let Allison know that I love her jacket.

I used to love going to see movies at midnight screenings or opening weekends, but given todays audience I always go on a weekday. My work schedule means I can go during a matinee and that rules out the stupid abortions who need to go to school, and the "adults" who have to work morning hours. My movie time is spent with older peeps who are respectful.

Man I feel bad for you guys for getting stuck with a bunch of pre-teens and for poor Doug Jones getting stuck in this bad movie. (Also props for Allison cool sparkle jacket)

THERE'S A FOURTH PERSON IN THE CAR! Brad's girlfriend, you are a saint dealing with the Sing Audience and now Bye Bye Man

Regarding the PG-13 thing, you can still make that scary. I know these aren't true horror films, the Jurassic Park movies and that recent Kong film are all PG-13 and were at times very frightening. I guess when they softened up the film they weren't creative/smart enough to have it still be scary at the same time. Not like anyone expected much from the title but damn it as a film-maker myself, you should own whatever the hell you work on, even if the one thing that is good about the film is the minor fucking thing you did. :P

I want to see Phelan's review of the movie.

can we talk about Allison's disco jacket. i want one so badly.

I'm hoping Split, Get Out, and Raw deliver. It would be nice to see some legitimately good horror movies come out in the first quarter of the year.

My guy has broken the Guinness record for saying "like" that many times in one video.....BUT I DIG HIM!! keep it up.

That summary at the end deserves a standing ovation, incredible.

I dunno why, but I want the "Bye Bye Mans" theme song to be N'Sync "Bye Bye"

Gotta love going to a movie with a bunch of kids in the audience. Although I mostly have problems with like groups of guys in their 30s who always seem to laugh at the weirdest times.

Wait, people in the audience were gabbling about going to church and praying to Jesus to save them from the Bye Bye Man? ... Do these people have no concept of movies?

I honestly think this was shot as an R film, and re-shot, or really, really terribly edited down to pg-13. I really wish studios would realize an R movie needs to be an R movie, and a pg-13 is something else entirely.

The Bye Bye Man, Candyman's special little stepbrother.

The worst is a packed horror film theatre on a Friday night because all the school kids are there, including the wannabe "goffs" who act obnoxious the whole time and laugh at everything, including tense and/or violent scenes. The ones who scream that loud I think are more screaming out of infantile excitement as though keys getting jingled would rock their fucking world. I really don't get why people spend all that money on a film (or drinks etc) and then don't fucking watch the movie. LOL I'm getting legit mad about this. It's why I barely even attend movie theatres. "We're 2 minutes away from the fire hoses coming out." LMAO A shame the film was so bad. Doug Jones was so excited to promote it.

It took me 10 minutes to see that the bye bye man was next to allison...

I am diggin on Allison's jacket!

I just got an ad for Bye Bye Man before this. I always thought stuff like that happening was a myth.

Ok...creeped out. I'm super stoned and just noticed the guy sitting behind Brad at about 4 mins. He seemed to just appear out of nowhere and is motionless and silent.

Dave in the back creeping me out.

According to the wiki on it the coins, train, and hound are all just bye bye man things. I am guessing the plot is much more sensible there then in the movie

The Bye Bye Man 2: Electric Byegaloo

I had no idea someone was sitting next to her in the back seat.

It's been a while since I saw the movie but I don't remember the Bye Bye Man being on screen for more than 10 minutes, if that. That pretty much sucks...

The Bye Bye man is in the back seat.
