Emelie
Directed by Michael Thelin
As their parents head out for a date night, the three young Thompson children immediately take to their new babysitter, Anna, who seems like a dream come true: she’s sweet, fun, and lets them do things that break all of the rules. But as Anna’s interactions with them take on a more sinister tone, the kids realize that their caretaker may not be who she claims to be, and soon it’s up to big brother Jacob to protect his siblings from the increasingly nefarious intentions of a very disturbed woman.
A young boy tries to protect his two siblings when their new baby sitter starts to reveal her psychotic nature.
Cast: Sarah Bolger, Carly Adams, Elisha Ali

Not bad. A bit uncomfortable at times but I guess that is the point!
So incredibly boring. Nothing happens but a bunch of bad acting.

Got kids? Don't watch it. A disturbing and miserable film which, like Speak No Evil, is mostly daring you to keep watching in the hope that things get less upsetting. At another period in my life I would have rated this much higher because of how affective it is. Now I'd rather watch something else.
Fairly middle of the road, not good but not bad. Overall the tension was maintained well, but it was a bit scare light. Personal Nitpick; but I found the 'little cubby' thing incredibly grating. I don't know why, maybe it hit the ear wrong.
