While no one expects this to be an arthouse film masterpiece, one would hope that the bloody bombast and crass jokes would provide at least a fraction of the entertainment of the movies they reference or parody.
Some scenes feel like sitting through bad sketch comedy, and other scenes feel like sitting through bad improv comedy.

That said, the rest of the movie is obnoxious, crass, idiotic, and, ultimately, a tedious exercise in failed humor.īesides "Haddonfield," there are references to other movies splattered throughout, and these jokes compete with sex jokes, stoner jokes, cartoonish violence, and painful moments of self-aware B movie acting and dialogue. It's a nice dig at the great and not-so-great horror movies that are supposed to be set in the flat-land Midwest despite looking an awful lot like California, and even when they go so far as to name the town "Haddonfield" (the same town stalked by one Michael Myers), it's still moderately amusing. The Babysitter: Killer Queen is set in Illinois, a land not known for having mountains, mesas, and deserts, but they're here in this movie just the same. The only remotely funny aspect of this movie is, paradoxically, one of its most subtle. The thin line between love and hate turns deadly when a wife discovers her husband’s affair and they both take extreme measures to get what they want. With the help of a mysterious new girl in school named Phoebe, Cole must find a way to survive the night, and not be part of a blood ritual that resurrects his demonic enemies. When an ancient troll is awakened in a Norwegian mountain, a rag-tag group of heroes must come together to try and stop it from wreaking deadly havoc. That night, while partying on a houseboat, Cole finds that the evil forces he thought he had defeated have returned, and there are some new faces as well. On the same day that Cole discovers that he's going to be taken to a high school for students with psychiatric disorders, Melanie encourages Cole to skip school and go with her to a gigantic party on a nearby lake. Melanie ( Emily Alyn Lind), Cole's best friend and unrequited crush, is the only one who believes his story.
His parents believe he has mental health issues, and his therapist thinks he just needs to lose his virginity. It has been two years since he survived and defeated a satanic blood cult led by his babysitter Bee, and since that time, he has been scorned, ridiculed, and bullied for maintaining the veracity of the ordeal. In THE BABYSITTER: KILLER QUEEN, Cole ( Judah Lewis) is starting high school.
