The Night Sitter

This is obviously a low budget horror film. The only difference is that the filmmaker's actually used their budget well. They found actors who are fairly decent and the special effects actually worked quit well. The three witches were scary/ menacing and the cinematography was beautifully shot with vivid colors reminiscent of Suspiria(1977). The movie is well worth your time and money if you're a true horror fan who appreciates well shot/acted b horror films.

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.

The 2018 movie "The Night Sitter" from directors and writers Abiel Bruhn and John Rocco definitely had potential. But it ended up as being a very scrambled mess of a movie, and I lost interest in it fairly quickly given the fact that the characters were essentially as interesting as the tarmac of a rundown airport.

The concept idea of "The Night Sitter" had some interesting ideas and elements, but it was just brought to life on the screen in a very lackluster manner, and the movie suffered terribly from that.

And it didn't help to boost the movie or its enjoyment one bit that the storyline was so prolonged and slow-paced. It literally felt like you were getting nowhere while watching the movie. It took writers Abiel Bruhn and John Rocco so long to get from A to B, and managed to cram in very little of interest along the way.

Yes, I managed to endure "The Night Sitter" to the very end, hoping that the movie would do a 180 and become interesting. It just never happened, and I must also admit to be using my phone frequently throughout the course of this movie.

Definitely not a movie I can recommend that you waste your time, money or effort on. Nor is it a movie that I will ever be returning to watch a second time around.

Not a classic, but it's an enjoyable fun film. I enjoyed the nods to Dario Argento with the 'Three Mothers' and the use of different coloured lighting. As a horror film it perhaps lack real scares, and as a comedy it's not really full-on belly-laugh funny, but it kept me interested and I enjoyed it.

A babysitter, with intentions of robbing her clients home, has to fight three witches to save the life of the child left in her care.

This is not an awful film. While it's low budget, it is filmed well and I enjoyed the use of colorful lighting. The story was interesting, albeit lacking in depth.

The acting was not bad considering I've seen worse in other low-budget films. Got to give credit where credit is due in that regard. There was a lack of character building that kept me from fully investing in any of the characters. I also had an issue with the children not seeming age appropriate for their characters and the pace was a bit slow.

Overall, it's not a blockbuster but it was a good watch for a lazy night on the couch.
