I went in with an open mind, fully prepared to have fun and ignore the negative reviews. There is no fun to be had here. Not one likeable character in the film, a weak story and terrible writing. I know it had a minimal budget and I was willing to forgive that but unfortunately it was way too obvious and totally distracting.

Was different and new game night was thought all would go off but it was fun and thudding one to see the movie... Any way spent a little time I'm spooky 💀😈 ghost but not much scariest one..

If one were to hear the plot of The Night Sitter, it sounds potentially interesting. A young thief poses as a babysitter for a wealthy paranormal investigator and, while under her care, the paranormal investigator's young son gets out of his room and unleashes three wicked witches named The Three Mothers who wreak havoc and destruction to all of those around them. For the first 20 minutes, The Night Sitter seems to be on the right path. The film, while clearly low budget, is beautifully photographed and the colored light gels invoke Dario Argento's Suspiria and Inferno. Unfortunately, it takes The Night Sitter over 45 minutes to get to anything even resembling danger and it's not like it's spent those first 45 minutes building up the characters, so it leaves us with a whole lot of nothing. Still, this is something the film could easily redeem with an exciting second half, but even that begins to feel repetitive and lack a sense of threat. These witches seem more pesky than downright diabolical. It all adds up to one big missed opportunity.

-1 For a Comedy / Horror with a serious lack of Comedy / Horror Okay the story of this one is pretty weak. But sure 'Witches Are Real!' -1 Star for Some pretty lacking acting, story, plot, whatever. -1 Star for STUPID KID lines +1 Star for Annoying Character killed by Friendly Fire -1 Star For Cruddy unrewarding ending. Really this movie is a complete bomb and I'm sorta surprised I didn't turn if off before getting to the ending. Don't waste your time.

Executive produced by Final Destination creator Jeffrey Reddick, The Night Sitter has plenty of style and neon color on display. It's trailer is incredibly effective, so I'd been waiting to see this for some time. Amber (Elyse Dufour, Frankie from The Walking Dead) is a con artist posing as a babysitter to steal from a wealthy occult lover. However, she finds herself growing closet to his son Kevin, who has become a recluse after the death of his mother. Speaking of mothers, this movie's villains are known as the Three Mothers, an obvious homage to Argento. This film takes that one step further and emulates Suspiria's neon colors. Other reviews are claiming this movie is a tribute to giallo, but let's be honest. This is closer to Evil Dead than that genre. It's just lazy reviewing, because you can debate if Argento's Three Mothers films are even giallo and are instead horror (you can also take me to task for not using gialli as the plural form if you want to take it even further).

A baby sitter who ends up watching the kid of a self proclaimed paranormal investigator. whom is in possession of a rare witchcraft book that contains the ability to conjure forth 3 witches known as the 3 mothers. This movie is beautifully lit with so much color it is satisfying just on that level. But the story holds up better than i would have expected. Its darkly comedic with some decent gorey parts and the soundtrack is synthy and cool. There is a fair ammount of build up before anything remarkably supernatural occurs but its suspenseful and interesting the whole time! Getting to know the characters is a real treat. The witches looked cool and i really liked the neighbor "vincent". I am glad i took a chance buying this. I can see how some might feel that this film a bit uneventful. Enough atmosphere to genuinely capture my interest. The 80's aesthetic found in this film was tasteful and not just masking the the contents of the story. This is a good movie in my opinion.

I'm reading some of the reviews after watching this and am confused... "Obviously low budget". Huh?? The movie used a really great house that looked perfect for the premise, above average sets, great lighting and actors who could actually act quite well. It's funny and interesting. I liked Amber, our protaginist, a lot. It kept me intrigued. I hadn't seen this story done quite this way ever. This movie does not suck. Give it a shot. It's a solid 8 with a good ending.

Absolute trash film! Complete yawn fest! Save 1hr28mims of your life and avoid watching this trash!

This is such a ridiculous movie but somehow it works. It's a total comedy of errors but with witches. While I don't care much for Ted, I'm obsessed with Rod and the boyfriend character. Totally funny. Plus the scares were great without being gross or over the top.

Nothing groundbreaking here, but somehow the cast and production make for a fun film. Somewhat standard plotting is abound with typical tropes for the genre. But, the connection between the "sitter" and her "charge" somehow give this film just a little bit more to enjoy. Again, nothing new or overly special, but it does hit the right notes for this type of film that I did enjoy watching it.
