When married couple Dan (Chris Beetem) and Joyce Thompson (Susan Pourfar)'s regular babysitter can't cover them for their anniversary dinner, they ask her friend Emelie (Sarah Bolger). At first the children Jacob (Joshua Rush), Sally (Carly Adams) and Christopher (Thomas Bair) are delighted with Emelie's laid-back approach and they are allowed to do whatever they like. Gradually, however, Emelie's behaviour begins to descend into the inappropriate and dangerous and it becomes clear that the children's lives might be under threat. (Icon Film Distribution)

English Exactly the kind of film that will leave you with a lot of uncomfortable feelings, and those feelings will linger after watching it. When they hire a girl to babysit their kids, they have no idea what she'll actually cause. When I see this, I really reconsider whether I should ever leave my kids with someone I don't know, even if they come recommended. I still have to shake it off, even though the ending was too traditional. ()

English An interesting premise, but the pervasive PG13 feel makes Emelie a very light horror spectacle. It's a shame that they didn’t push the envelope at all, there’s not twist and the finale is not intense enough. The performances by the kids and the deranged babysitter pull it up to better than average. ()
