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, and soon it’s up to big brother Jacob to protect his siblings from the increasingly nefarious intentions of a very disturbed woman. Featuring a tour-de-force performance from Bolger and its three young leads, EMELIE is a multidimensional, nail-biting thriller that proves trust can be the most deadly of weapons. Reviews: “Highly recommended, sophisticated horror.” - Shock Till You Drop “Bolger excels at playing the nightmare version of a babysitter: seemingly sweet, cool, and capable, but secretly evil.” - The AV Club “Chilling fun.” - Dread Central “A cool, collected home-invasion chiller.” - Variety Show more
