First Look At Netflix A Babysitter's Guide to Monster Hunting

When high school freshman Kelly Ferguson (Tamara Smart) reluctantly agrees to babysit Jacob Zellman (Ian Ho) on Halloween, the last thing she expects is to be recruited into an international secret society of babysitters who protect kids with special powers from monsters. In order to keep Jacob safe from harm, Kelly teams with no-nonsense chapter Vice President Liz Lerue (Oona Laurence), tech genius Berna Vincent (Troy Leigh-Anne Johnson), creature expert Cassie Zhen (Lynn Masako Cheng), and potions master Curtis Critter (Ty Consiglio).

Together they must defeat a Boogeyman known as “The Grand Guignol” (Tom Felton), a glamorous witch named “Peggy Drood” (Indya Moore), and their legion of mysterious monsters. The film is based on the first installment of Joe Ballarini's popular scary book series of the same name.

A Babysitter’s Guide to Monster Hunting is directed by Rachel Talalay, produced by Ivan Reitman and Amie Karp, with Naia Cucukov, Tom Pollock, and Ilona Herzberg executive producing. Alessio Scalzotto, Tamsen McDonough, Ashton Arbab, Crystal Balint, and Ricky He also co-star in this action-packed adventure about working together to overcome your fears.

It looks to me like this film is going to be equal parts funny and scary, but scary in a good way. But did you see Tom Felton? Harry Potter fans, I had to do a double take. Looks like his Slytherin ways finally got the better of him! 

 

A Babysitter's Guide To Monster Hunting will premiere on October 15th 2020 only on Netflix
