The Babysitter: Killer Queen

• Comedy
• Horror

A gleefully chaotic and surprisingly heartwarming horror comedy, *The Babysitter: Killer Queen* doesn’t rehash typical teen survival tropes. Instead, it leans fully into a darkly whimsical and excessively violent world where a high schooler must confront not only a resurrected satanic cult, but also the crushing anxieties of fitting in and the complexities of female friendship. The film subverts expectations by framing a demonic apocalypse through a lens of surprisingly sincere attempts at connection, highlighting a desperate longing for belonging amidst the gore. While battling devil worshippers, Cole grapples with his own complicity and ultimately finds a bizarre, bloody path towards a twisted form of acceptance and even, strangely, emotional release.
