Sarah Bolger is a creepy babysitter in Emelie; poster and synopsis here

Last Updated on July 22, 2021

 

Her weapon is trust, her target is innocence… That's the alluring hook of EMELIE, the latest addition in the beloved "psycho nanny" subgenre; we can't get enough of these. The film stars Sarah Bolger, from THE MOTH DIARIES and THE LAZARUS EFFECT, as the titular character, a babysitter who might actually want to sit on your babies. We've got the poster and synopsis for this deadly lady right here:

As their parents head out for a date in the city, the three young Thompson children immediately take to their new babysitter, Anna (Sarah Bolger, Into the Badlands, Once Upon a Time), who seems like a dream come true: she’s sweet, fun, and lets them do things that break all of their parents’ rules. But as Anna’s interactions with them take on a more sinister tone, the kids realize that their caretaker may not be who she claims to be. Soon it’s up to big brother Jacob to protect his siblings from the increasingly nefarious intentions of a very disturbed woman whose weapon is trust, and whose target is innocence.

EMELIE hits VOD and limited theaters on March 4th.
