THE BABYSITTER PART 1 embraced how silly it was, resulting in a fun horror comedy, but THE BABYSITTER PART 2: KILLER QUEEN crosses that line. It's so aggressively dumb that I couldn't wait for it to end, and it's so desperate to justify its own existence that it resorts to retconning, to the point where certain characters feel like entirely new people. There are flashbacks (one for each villain) placed throughout the movie. Are they used to juxtapose past and present events? No, they don't really connect to anything. They just interrupt the modern-day scene at a random moment and they don't even reveal any relevant information. You know the classic scenario where the hero yells and/or moves after an animal has been crawling on them for several seconds, which reveals their hiding spot to the villain? It's usually funny. I mean, how dumb must you be in order to care about an itch when someone is about to beat you up or even kill you? There's a moment like that with Cole (the protagonist), but there's a big problem: The animal is a snake. Cole is trying to save his own life by not ignoring this potentially deadly reptile. Since he's not really an idiot, I can't laugh at him. 1/10 ------------------------------------- You can read comments of other movies in my blog.
