Awful.......

I guess this is a horror/comedy? It's neither humorous or scary.

-A little info regarding the book and her friends would've been nice.
-Why in the world would a kid this old need a babysitter. I know he was a wuss, but give me a break.
-How many times did Cole have a chance to escape. Instead let's run upstairs, or run to a inescapable tree house, or run across the street to hide at the neighbor's house.
-Even when he's at Melanie's house: Let's not sneak out the open front door. Let's sneak to another part of the house and stay in danger with this psychopath.
-Driving a car in the house? Sure.......

I know the movie is suppose to be taken lightly, but at least be plausibly believable in your attempt. Nice gore, tho.

Watching it on Fork Spectrum (a channell, courtesy of the Kodi App). Very funny, starting with a Justin Beiber reference!

Just finished and it's hilarious (though the focus on Cole's attacker shifts from Bee the sitter to one of the freaky guys).

One man's trash is another man's treasure. I went into it on Netflix on a whim. I'd never heard of it and thoroughly enjoyed it. I thought it was quite funny and my movie funnybone is not easily tickled.

I liked it also. Zombeavers is fun also. I usually hate comedy, but these two horror hybrids were enjoyable.

I agree with your points but those aren't really my issues, many of them are standard in horror and genre fans learn to look past them. Overall it felt like the director was unsure of what he wanted it to be.

It was horribly craptastic. I hope McSmuG never makes another movie; if he does, I hope to miss it. I've had the misfortune to see them all, and it appears that he shot his collective wad on the first Charlie's Angels film.
