Emelie
Scary Movies 9
October 30 - November 5, 2015
On their parents’ anniversary, three children are left home alone with the new replacement babysitter, whose behavior becomes increasingly menacing as the evening unfolds. A bloodcurdling mash-up of the bad-babysitter and home-invasion subgenres, Emelie is every parent’s worst nightmare.
It’s the Thompsons’ anniversary. They plan to go out and celebrate, but their regular babysitter Maggie isn’t available to look after their three kids. Luckily, Maggie’s friend Anna can cover for her, and she seems an absolute dream. But first impressions fade quickly, and it turns out that Anna isn’t actually Anna, she is Emelie, and she’s clearly not right in the head. A bloodcurdling mash-up of the bad-babysitter and home-invasion subgenres, Emelie builds tension steadily and uncomfortably as the young woman’s behavior becomes increasingly menacing, playing the children (all refreshingly likable and unaffected) against one another as she attempts to carry out a secret, sinister mission. Emelie is every parent’s worst nightmare. An MPI/Dark Sky Films release.
