Better Watch Out

DATE: Sun, August 13
TIME: 9:30PM
VENUE: O Cinema Wynwood

Home Alone meets Michael Haneke’s Funny Games in this sadistic horror comedy genre-bender that will leave you squealing with glee from start to finish. Just when you thought it was safe to leave your doors unlocked and your windows unbarred, a film like Better Watch Out comes along and completely makes you rethink the home invasion narrative. On a quiet suburban street tucked within a ‘safe neighborhood’, a babysitter (played by The Visit star Olivia DeJonge) must defend a twelve-year-old boy from strangers breaking into the house, only to discover that this is far from a normal home invasion. Better Watch Out is a twisted and twisty mash-up of dark delights as filtered through the lens of an ’80s teen comedy.
