Horror fans will now have to avoid "thinking it" and "saying it" until winter, as STX Entertainment has given The Bye Bye Man a new release date in December.
According to Box Office Mojo, The Bye Bye Man will now be released on December 9th, pushing it back several months from its original June 3rd debut date.
Synopsis: “People commit unthinkable acts every day. Time and again, we grapple to understand what drives a person to do such terrible things. But what if all of the questions we’re asking are wrong? What if the source of all evil is not a matter of what…but who?
From the producer of The Strangers and Oculus comes The Bye Bye Man, a chilling horror-thriller that exposes the evil behind the most unspeakable acts committed by man.
When three college friends stumble upon the horrific origins of the Bye Bye Man, they discover that there is only one way to avoid his curse: don’t think it, don’t say it. But once the Bye Bye Man gets inside your head, he takes control. Is there a way to survive his possession?"
Directed by Stacy Title from a screenplay by Jonathan Penner that's based on Robert Damon Schneck's short story The Bridge to Body Island, The Bye Bye Man stars Carrie-Anne Moss, Faye Dunaway, Douglas Smith, Cressida Bonas, Lucien Laviscount and Douglas Jones.
