In Theaters
Starring – Lauren Cohan
Great title. I’m already intrigued.
Lauren Cohan - Maggie on “The Walking Dead.” Cohan’s a good
actress, but is she good enough to carry a movie?
So she’s a Nanny who will be working at a mansion with a particularly
odd-looking painting of a little boy with his parents.
Enter the Grocery… Man, and you’ve found your love interest.
Good chance he’ll try to sacrifice himself to save her.
Okay, so you’re a Nanny watching the doll. You’re given a
list that includes
2. Don’t Cover His Face
7. Never Leave Him Alone
9. Don’t Forget to Feed Him
10. Kiss Goodnight.
Forget about the fact that they're asking you to treat this CPR Dummy as a real, live boy.
You learn that the doll is in fact moving around on its own. You are 100% certain. Why does your list not immediately become
1. Burn the doll
2. Get the Fuck Out
Seriously, why the
fuck do you continue to stay there?
As if the doll weren’t enough (which it definitely 100% is), how isn’t the kid’s tombstone tipping you off?
Nope, according to the tombstone, this demon doll is immortal, and you'll more than likely have to fight it at some point. Just go back to working at McDonald’s,
Professional Nanny isn’t seeming like a great choice right now.
This trailer starts out strong with good, creepy atmosphere
and an interesting premise. If it had stopped at 1:10, after the doll moved in
the kitchen, I would have been genuinely interested. But it doesn’t look like
there’s anything substantial to hold the plot together, especially if this
is going to be the climax of the movie. Or worse, the final
jump scare.
But it is horror, so I probably will see it.
