Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

To suggest that this is a "rip off" of "When A Stranger Calls is ridiculous. The only reason I can imagine for people to say such a silly thing is that they didn't actually watch the movie beyond the first half hour or so. It's akin to saying Cemetery Gates ripped off Delamorte Dellamore because they're both about cemeteries. Ludicrous! Babysitter Wanted bears no resemblance to WASC or to Black Christmas (the classic 1974 horror movie that 'inspired' WASC in the first place). In fact, its unlike any horror movie I've seen before.This is a fresh, innovative and surprising movie with a plot you will not see coming. The direction, cinematography, acting, character development, pacing, story, mystery development, action, and final scenes are all top notch and again I find myself baffled by the ratings given to movies on IMDb. They seem to be particularly out of whack in the horror genre for some strange and frustrating reason.Anyway - the only real fault I can think of here is the music was sometimes too intrusive - but that's probably more a style issue. To me the use of loud crescendos and repetitive loud beats actually detracted from the tension or shock or horror of what was on screen rather than enhancing it. That's not to say the musical score was all bad, some of it was great. It was just something I noticed during some crucial scenes.This movie deserves a rating of at least 7 and given that they produced such a gem of a killer thriller with buckets of horror and awesome kill scenes etc on a minimal budget it should easily get an 8. One of the best I've seen that's been made in the past few years.DO yourself a favour and get hold of this beauty! (not for the squeamish tho!!)

This movie starts off with a lot of horror clichés like fake scares, the dark stranger in the shadows, the clean cut innocent girl and the love interest, and for the first 45 minutes it goes along that way until a little twist that you kind of don't see coming. Then the movie changes tact, blood, gore, and cringe worthy scenes which for me save this film from being a less than average 'WHEN A STRANGER CALLS' type movie which I would've given it a 3.5 to a not bad but not good 6 out of 10. It was good to see Bill Moseley playing a normal role for him. So as a result like I said, I give this a 6 out of 10, only because of the plot twist and blood.

Since some of you might want to watch this movie (which I totally don't recommend), I will review it without going into details.In my opinion, this was a very bad horror movie. The story was really bad, and the movie wasn't even scary. Some things did not make sense at all, and had no connection to the story, -> like the priest's behavior for instance. It was a waste of time watching the movie, and it extremely boring all the way.The only positive thing I could see, was how the killer was so cynical and psychopathic, and his acting was good. There was also an interesting twist, but then the ending spoiled that too (in my opinion).

Okay, 1stly i wanna say, I CAN EXPECT THE PLOT!! I can already guess who is the bad one in here. The part where the child eat the raw meat is actually the main clue to this. Well, you can actually guess by just look at the boy eating the meat and compare it to the earlier scene from the movie.What i really disappointed in this movie is the acting skill. The actress really don't act well especially at the panic-heart-pounding part. We can see that she is not really that scared. And the part where she has to knocked-out the priest, look soft to me. She really didn't hit the man hard.Also, i really thought that Rick gonna be a help at some point, but it seems that he doesn't has any part in the horror part. Really.. What is the point of him getting knocked-out and when he seem to gain his conscious then nothing happen??
