Storyline;
Cole (Judah Lewis) loves his babysitter (Samara Weaving) Bee. She's hot, funny, and popular. One night, in a moment of defiance, Cole secretly stays up past his bedtime to discover she's actually a cold-blooded killer who's in league with the Devil. He now must spend his night evading Bee's band of killers who will stop at nothing to prevent Cole from spilling their dark secret. It's up to Cole to survive the night (and blow up a few people along the way)


Thoughts;



This movie wasn't bad. It kept you watching that's for sure and it was a little slap stick comedy for sure.



It has the token hot babysitter and the kid who really just needs someone there to be with him. She is a little too “cool”. When he decides to go spy on her her quickly finds out that not all is what it seems.



I wish there would have been a little more backstory, at one point Bee whipped out a book that appears to be super old and falling apart, she pulls it out of a case. What happened to her that she is like this, it's explained shortly at the end, but not when it's important.



All in all this was a decent movie




Plot Summary; CAUTION; Major Spoiler Alert
Cole, an introverted 12-year-old boy who is always bullied by his next-door neighbour, is secretly having a crush on his gorgeous babysitter, Bee. With this in mind, even though Cole doesn't admit it, he still needs his babysitter, as Bee is, above all, every boy's dream-girl fantasy incarnate. However, when Cole's parents leave for the weekend, unforeseen revelations regarding Bee's obscure past, will force the young teenager to take matters into his own hands, and for the first time in his life, overcome his fears to become the neighbourhood's hero. Of course, all that's needed is just a splash of blood.
