    EXCLUSIVE PODCAST: From a script written by her husband, Jonathan Penner, director Stacy Title takes on the horror genre in her new film The Bye Bye Man. The film was sparked to life from a story of a Wisconsin family terrorized by an entity in 1990.

    While the story can't be 100% validated, the topic fascinated the director who decided to take a Greek-mythological and psychological approach in making the film. Title discusses some of the mysterious back story of character and facing adversity as a female filmmaker in the horror genre.
