Leave your thoughts about The Babysitter.
| SensacineXavi Sánchez PonsThe Babysitter is the daughter of terror and eighties teen cinema, but without pulling nostalgia. [Full Review in Spanish] |
| Birth.Movies.Death.Jacob KnightPerhaps the most infuriating element of The Babysitter is that it feels like a horror movie made by someone who doesn't necessarily like horror movies, and is taking this odd opportunity to sort of laugh at the genre. |
| The Straits Times (Singapore)John LuiThere are a few good pop-culture gags here, but it is the strong central performances of [Samara] Weaving as the hottie and Lewis as the nerd that elevate this to more than just an exercise in ironic B movie-making. |
| Hindustan TimesRohan NaaharFinally, the hot girl next door running a Satanic sex club movie we were all waiting for. |
| The Young FolksJustin CarreiroThis is a fun flick that doesn't take itself too seriously, and it gives us more to enjoy than only the tired clichés were meant to *not* expect. |
| DeciderJosh SorokachClocking in at a crisp, succinct 80 minutes, The Babysitter is an enjoyable, breezy film that doesn't take itself too seriously. |
| Film InquiryNathan OsborneBecause of some impressive performances, solid direction and bold decisions, it's difficult not to have fun with Netflix's latest creation. |
| The Daily DotEddie StraitThe Babysitter has its moments to be sure, but you'll probably forget about it by the time Netflix auto-plays whatever is next. |
| Daily Journal (Kankakee, IL)Kiera AllenThe Babysitter has meticulously placed laughs (and music) when needed, but the standout laughs come from Andrew Bachelor (who plays John), better known as King Bach from his laugh-inducing, viral Vine videos. |
| StarburstTommy JamesStrip away the blood, gore and relatively tame NSFW language and what remains is essentially a coming of age story geared towards giving Cole his Marty McFly moment. |
