The Night Sitter

Ouch! Some of the reviews are brutal for this movie.

OK, so it's not going to be a classic of all time, but it is watchable.

The thing that lets it down is the lack of really suspenseful build up in some places that are quite pivotal to the story. - it tens to move predictably smoothly from one scene to the next.

Apart from that, the acting is OK and the visuals are fine.

Not worth the watch, but not terrible if you just want something on; maybe at a Halloween party where no one is really watching it closely. Torn between 4-5/10, but the production quality and the second half were alright so I bumped it up.

Beginning *way *too overacted with the dad, and the annoying kid was just insufferable to have on screen.

The premise was good, but that's about it. The story was bad, the dialogue was bad, and it felt unfocused. The way the robbers acted was so *outlandish* and didn't track at all: Picked a lock fast? Better take a sex break in another room, who needs to rush?

By the middle of the movie it would have made more sense if they were all college kids who happened to be crashing a house party or something. Ignoring that part, it became a fine horror movie at the middle mark, but it was nothing special and I can't recommend it.

The "twist" was lame and predicable, but the end 30m had a few chaotic demon scenes that were fun to watch. The weird occult-nerd neighbor actually was pretty funny once they started using him too.

Not a classic, but it's an enjoyable fun film. I enjoyed the nods to Dario Argento with the 'Three Mothers' and the use of different coloured lighting. As a horror film it perhaps lack real scares, and as a comedy it's not really full-on belly-laugh funny, but it kept me interested and I enjoyed it.

If you want a mindless late night movie to watch, this may do it for you. Nothing new here, but enough of the scenes work for me to stay for the whole thing. Not bad :) 6/10

Honestly, what nonsense. Its 15 min before the film ends and I am *YAWN*!

This is 80's meets 90's slapstick horror trying to be funny in between. Nothing special about the acting, the score and the film overall.

This is a film I wouldn't revist and scores itself a boring 4 stars just for the effort of trying to be a mainstream film.

What tosh!
