2.5/5
Killer Queen isn't nearly as refined as the first film and goes a little too big in many respects, but McG still manages to deliver an entertaining thrill with a stellar ensemble giving every ounce of this mayhem 100%. Go to Full Review

In this new era of McG movies, you can simply turn his film off, walk a few steps to your bedroom and go to sleep. Go to Full Review

2.5/5
Like most horror sequels, Killer Queen opts to go bigger and gorier. But mostly, it just gets dumber. And it's really, really dumb. Go to Full Review
Jason Shawhan Nashville Scene Sep 10, 2021
This is generally pleasant and kind of inconsequential, but it'll scratch your dance-party-and-exploding-head itch, even if it's not quite as fun as its predecessor and gets mired in some unexpected sentimentality. Go to Full Review

4/5
With a more unpredictable storyline, time to elevate the characters from caricatures and the freedom to pull from a wider variety of influences, The Babysitter: Killer Queen takes a good movie and makes it great. Go to Full Review

Marco L @decatur555 4 days ago A weaker but still enjoyable sequel that continues exactly where the first film left off: absurd, bloody, juvenile, shameless and proud of its own stupidity. It has lost the surprise of the original, so it turns up the volume with more deaths, more jokes, more colors, more chases and more chaos. Sometimes that works, and sometimes it feels like the film is shouting to compensate. Cole remains a likeable center, especially as someone still marked by a nightmare nobody believes, and the returning villains keep the rowdy pop-slasher energy alive. But Samara Weaving’s absence weighs heavily: she was the magnet of the first film, and without her the madness feels more scattered and less charismatic. The script is weaker, more rushed and more overstuffed, but I still prefer its shameless energy to lazy sequel apathy. Dumber, messier and inferior, yes, but faithful to the spirit of the first and still funny enough to be worth the ride. See more Nathan J @TribianiRamoray 5 days ago Rated: 5.6/10 I dug the 2017 original, and Jenna Ortega joining the cast sold me. I like this; it loses the tight house-invasion charm, but Ortega and campy lake-party carnage kept me entertained. The Director's Eye (What Worked): • Ortega brings scrappy energy, giving Lewis someone fun to bounce off of. • Bringing the old cult back leans right into goofy splatter. • Marino steals scenes as Cole’s dad while McCreary’s score keeps it moving. The Friction (What Didn't Click for Me): • Trading one house for a lake makes the pacing feel looser and less tense. • Random cartoon cutaways make the humor feel forced. • Rehashing the same blood-ritual rules feels lazy. The Verdict: I like it. Watch for campy gore and Ortega. Skip if recycled plots wear you out. See more Miguel C @RT99172600 Jul 29, 2026 A falta de criatividade foi tanta que eles ressuscitaram os vilões, podendo apenas trazer novos. E ainda colocaram o par romântico do protagonista como vilã. See more Tj B @RT77549479 Jul 23, 2026 This movie could’ve been so much better if they dialed back the goofiness to just enough. The first movie leaves so much good will to watch this and i just hit the mark the way you hope it would. All characters return with a few new ones to round out the cast. At minimum it is a good continuation from what happened in the previous movie and ends on a solid note that feels like the wrap up of a trilogy even though it’s a sequel. If you liked the first one then watch this film but keep your standards low even when you start to feel like something is about to get really good. Jenna Ortega is fun to see here but even she wasn’t enough to save this film. I WISH this film was better but it’s only good enough. See more Diptanshu G @RT88284252 Jul 19, 2026 1st one was awesome, This seemed like a miss, but it was enjoyable with its goofiness and absurd situations. See more diogo13 T @Tua_mera Jul 14, 2026 Uma sequela ruidosa, histérica e completamente desnecessária que falha em recuperar o charme do primeiro filme. O argumento é preguiçoso, as piadas de teor sexual ou absurdas são forçadas e o excesso de sangue digital estraga as cenas de ação. See more Read all reviews
