My Babysitter's a Vampire

The film is by no means a masterpiece. The story is rather ridiculous, the violence is almost non existent and, besides being with vampires, it is completely not horror. However, it is really fun. It reminds me of the original 1985 Fright Night film, only for children and with a lot of sci-fi and horror references.

While it is not perfect, it has the potential to become a classic, as the child actors were decent, the production values as well and the people that took part of the project were clearly having a lot of fun filming it.

And there is also a series! I haven't watched it yet, but I am willing to bet it will be fun as well. Go, Canada!

I saw a DVD release of this, and technically it's not a master-piece (sound, image and editing), but content-wise it's one of the first movies in a long (looong) time that gets close to having the same excellent spirit that is in the old "nightmare on elm street" films :) Sure, it's not at all similar, in terms of story, but it just has that special something that makes it very enjoyable to watch.

Great cast :) The movie could easily have been longer. In fact it should have been, since there were some scenes that seemed to come out of the blue (Benny and the popcorn-girl scene, for example) like something was edited out.

It's quite obvious that this is a pilot to a serial, rather than made to be just a standalone film. But if you love the show, getting the backstory is very pleasing. In the show there are many references to past events, but in the film we finally (I saw the serial before the film, so everything is chronologically reverse for me) see these things happen :)

It's fun, it'll make you smile, it's friendly, and it's even a bit scary at times :)

All in all a keeper you can easily watch more than once :)

(I just wish it was released on bluray though, and with as good sound-quality as the show has when broadcast on Disney-channel. The DVD is sub-standard technically so that's why I give it 7 out of 10. The like-factor is higher)

I personally love this film I have watched it many time with my friends i also love the TV show! The movie is actually incredible though. I could watch it again and again! It is unique, some people say just cause it's vampires it must be like twilight but it's not! They even make a obvious joke about twilight anyway. It's such a good film. I am actually about to just watch it again! I would recommend this film to everyone who likes any Disney channel movies or anything from Disney channel! It is funny, and intense! I am In love with this film and I have no idea what more to say Except WOW.

I still don't get why the show got cancelled, as far as I know, this was the last descent and actually enjoyable TV series on Disney, it was funny and ingenious with awesome characters and an incredible love plot between Ethan and Sarah, which we didn't get to see if something really happened, gotta cry.

If a new season or second movie could be on plans, so we could get a proper finale, the producers must know we DON'T want a kind of "new generation" with new actors or new characters, we want to know what happened to these with the awesome cast it had.

This was and IS my favorite show ever, hope I am alive when the proper finale airs.

I watched this when I was young but I need to see it again, I'm so happy that I got to experience the sick days of Disney channel and kids TV , this new generation missed all that, Being 17 now I Fancy Vanessa Morgan -SARAH so much , she was 19 then and she was so hot now she 30, I loved this show and feeling when watching it , Sarah or Vanessa is so perfect. I really need to watch the movie and a few episodes again I watched this when I was young but I need to see it again, I'm so happy that I got to experience the sick days of Disney channel and kids TV , this new generation missed all that, Being 17 now I Fancy Vanessa Morgan -SARAH so much , she was 19 then and she was so hot now she 30, I loved this show and feeling when watching it , Sarah or Vanessa is so perfect.
