Your Holiday Guide to Bad Halloween Movies
Slender Man (2018)
If you’re a fan of terrible movies, go watch it. It’s got everything: a lame plot, awful characters, bad dialogue, and cuts that take anything potentially worth watching out of the film. It’s near the peak of unoriginality despite having a wealth of internet lore to borrow from. You know how much it takes to buy a story from a fanfiction writer? Not nearly as much as a crappy yet relatively high budget movie will cost you at the box office.

The Bye Bye Man (2017)
Can you think of a worse name for a pseudo-demonic antagonist?
I watched this opening weekend. The trailers were captivating for their ability to gradually deteriorate into an exposé of terrible CGI over a poorly adapted short-story plot. It’s basically the laziest gothic horror you can imagine, with characters descending into madness in absolutely hilarious ways because they can’t stop thinking about The Bye Bye Man. They aren’t alone, as I haven’t stopped thinking about their atrocious film either.
