A FILM BY Michael Thelin
Emelie, the feature debut of concert-film director Michael Thelin, offers a clever take on classic babysitter-in-peril horror. Thelin packs the not-quite-eighty-minute runtime with tense, creepy set pieces, and it's the babysitter who's evil.
-Abbey Bender, The Village Voice
Thelin, in his feature debut, has an undeniable knack for making an audience squirm without resorting to excessive gore or jump scares.
-Sara Stewart, New York Post
Synopsis
After their regular babysitter Maggie can’t make it, the Thompson family turns to her friend Anna to supervise their children while the parents go out to celebrate their anniversary. At first Anna seems like a dream come true to the kids, allowing them to eat extra cookies and play with things that are usually off-limits, but as her behavior becomes increasingly odd, the kids soon find out that her intentions are dark and twisted, and she is not who she seems to be.Theatrical Release Date
