Scare-a-Thon 2021 Day 25: Better Watch Out (2017)

  You know that meme or Shower Thought that circulates the internet every year about "what if Kevin from Home Alone was the villain"?  Well, they made it into a movie.  And it is misogynistic trash.

Obsessed with his hot babysitter (Olivia DeJonge), twelve-year-old Luke (Levi Miller) sets up a fake home invasion with his best friend, Garrett (Ed Oxenbould), so he can "rescue" her.  But when she doesn't respond favorably, he moves on to more murderous plans.

Honestly, this movie was gross.  I fast-forwarded through a lot of it because hearing a pre-teen talk about sexually assaulting a teenaged girl was disgusting and I frankly don't need to listen to that.  There's zero reason to watch this, especially considering how many Christmas horror movies there are that have to be better, but if you must it's streaming exclusively on Shudder.
