Bee Delores Horrorverse Bystanders is a wildly refreshing reinvention of the genre that packs on the humor and twists. Jan 29, 2025 Full Review Dan Tabor Cinapse Bystanders is a brutal and refreshingly feminist take on the rape/revenge sub-genre, that shows a complete grasp of how these films need to work, while updating the formula for a new generation.

Charles L Watch it if you like Bad acting and plastic knives Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/25 Full Review Alex R This movie was a mad fun and a great bloody massacre with revenge kills and twists! Loved it! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/22/25 Full Review Emily F I'm more than a little biased because my best friend wrote this and stars as Clare and I read every draft over the years, but Bystanders has always meant so much to me as a woman and as a creative. The cast and crew have put so much love into every second and have created absolutely something truly special. If you love the horror genre and/or want to support indie, women, survivor filmmakers, this is the movie for you. If you're angry at the state of the world, this is the movie for you. If you want to see terrible people get their comeuppance, this is the movie for you. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/24/25 Full Review Read all reviews
