And I am not going to give any spoilers, but I suggest you give The Babysitter: Killer Queen a shot. Look, I know a lot of fans were put off by the initial trailer for Killer Queen, and were moaning about how it couldn’t possibly be good without Samara Weaving’s Bee. Even Ken Marino and Leslie Bibb are back as Cole’s parents, and Chris Wylde returns to his role of Melanie’s oddball father. It says a lot about McG that nearly all of the actors from The Babysitter were more than happy to return for The Babysitter: Killer Queen, and they seem to be having a blast. Director McG manages to fit a few Easter eggs in the film, along with a ridiculously fun dance montage and an homage to video games, and the soundtrack is fantastic. It’s all very fast paced, with copious amounts of body fluids being tossed around in the mix, and the ending is slightly kooky, yet satisfying. THE BABYSITTER: KILLER QUEEN (L to R) JENNA ORTEGA as PHOEBE and JUDAH LEWIS as COLE in THE BABYSITTER: KILLER QUEEN. We have Allison, the conceited, dim-witted cheerleader, the perpetually shirtless Max, dark and intense Sonya and wanna be singer John. That’s where things get bloody and dangerous again, and Bee’s fellow cult members come back from the dead to once again to obtain Cole’s “pure” blood. Ortega is a nice addition to the cast, by the way, and she keeps things from feeling too much like a repeat. Joining in on the fun is new student Phoebe (Jenna Ortega), who shows up at the lake just in time to witness a “WTF” incident. When Cole won’t admit that it was all in his head, his parents arrange to admit him to a psychiatric hospital, and he decides to take off for the lake with Melanie when he finds out. After all, Bee was nowhere to be found when the dust settled, and the whole thing seemed far fetched. TYLER GOLDEN/NETFLIX © 2020Ĭole’s parents, along with everyone else, don’t believe his crazy story about Bee belonging to a blood cult, and they are worried about his mental state. THE BABYSITTER: KILLER QUEEN (L to R) ANDREW BACHELOR as JOHN, BELLA THORNE as ALLISON and ROBBIE AMELL as MAX in THE BABYSITTER: KILLER QUEEN. Cole and his cute friend Melanie are in high school now, and are still friends. Though The Babysitter: Killer Queen is supposed to be set two years later, the timeline is a little wonky, because Cole was twelve in the first movie, and he seems to be about 16 in the sequel. By the end of the movie, he was able to confidently tell his parents that he didn’t need a babysitter anymore, even a cool, sexy sitter like Bee. Judah Lewis’s Cole was a neurotic mess in The Babysitter, but he faced down many of his fears: spiders, needles, and driving a car, like a champ. What are the odds that a sequel could match the sheer action-packed, blood spewing, funny craziness of Samara Weaving and her strange pals versus a boy who was afraid of almost everything? If you’re like me, you absolutely loved The Babysitter, and had mixed feelings about The Babysitter: Killer Queen. So, how does it stack up against the original? Netflix has begun streaming The Babysitter: Killer Queen, its follow-up to 2017’s The Babysitter.
