Netflix’s ‘The Babysitter’ Trailer: Humor, Hot People, and Human Sacrifice
Netflix is handing out tons of treats this Halloween season as they’ve now shared the insanely gory trailer for McG’s The Babysitter, which hits their streaming service on Friday, October 13th.
“The Babysitter follows a lonely, 12-year-old boy who falls in love with his hot babysitter only to discover that she’s part of a satanic cult that wants to kill him.”
The first footage is pretty wild and looks like the perfect compliment to Christopher Peckover’s Better Watch Out, arriving on VOD platforms this coming Friday. The Babysitter looks like it sprays blood and is capable of anything, leaving me expecting some sort of third act surprise. What we know we’ll see come next weekend is a lot of humor, hot people, and human sacrifice. I can get behind that.
Speaking of “hot people”, The Babysitter features Bella Thorne, who also stars in Dimension Films’ long-delayed Amityville: The Awakening, alongside Robbie Amell, Samara Weaving, Andrew Bachelor, Hana Mae Lee, and Judah Lewis.
Terminator Salvation‘s McG directed from Brian Duffield’s script, which received top placement on the 2014 Blacklist.
David Fincher’s “Mindhunter” series hits the streaming service on the same day, with Stephen King’s 1922 arriving on October 20th and “Stranger Things” Season 2 debuting October 27th. Get your popcorn ready!
In addition to Leigh Whannell’s upcoming Universal Monsters movie Wolf Man, Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel) has also joined the cast of Weapons, THR has announced tonight.
Weapons is the new horror movie from New Line Cinema and director Zach Cregger (Barbarian), with Julia Garner joining the previously announced Josh Brolin (Dune 2).
The upcoming Weapons is from writer/director Zach Cregger, who will also produce alongside his Barbarian producing team: Roy Lee of Vertigo and J.D. Lifshitz and Raphael Margules of BoulderLight Pictures. Vertigo’s Miri Yoon also produces.
The Hollywood Reporter teases, “Plot details for Weapons are being kept holstered but it is described as a multi and inter-related story horror epic that tonally is in the vein of Magnolia, the 1999 actor-crammed showcase from filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson.”
Cregger was a founding member and writer for the New York comedy troupe “The Whitest Kids U’Know,” which he started while attending The School of Visual Arts. The award-winning group’s self-titled sketch comedy show ran for five seasons on IFC-TV and Fuse. He was also a series regular on Jimmy Fallon’s NBC series “Guys with Kids” and the TBS hit series “Wrecked,” and was featured in a recurring role on the NBC series “About a Boy.”
Weapons will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures.
