2017 has been "the best of times...the worst of times" for horror movies it seems. For every
Get Out, It Comes At Night and
It, we've also gotten utter dreck like
Rings and
Wish Upon. I foolishly thought those two films couldn't be beaten in terms of lowering the bar for horror cinema in 2017, but
The Bye Bye Man somehow beats out a snooze-inducing
Rings sequel to become the worst horror film of the year and possibly the worst 2017 movie that isn't
9/11. Not only is this a terrible motion picture but it's bad in amateurish ways that aren't particularly common among conventional theatrical releases in 2017.
