Have you ever been a little confused by the way some films are classified by streaming services? For example, you click on something with the comedy label, then sit down a film intended to become your own Vietnam flashback. Example: Better to pay attention is often listed as a “horror comedy” and is currently described as a “farce” on Tubi, but whoever broadcasts this film on this platform must prepare for some dark Chills and chills.
Better to pay attention
Better to pay attention Start enough, with a supervisor baby-sitter on a teenager who is hot for her. But he has no time for love because an apparent intruder has broken into the house and threatened to kill anyone who tries to leave. Baby-sitter is now in a fight for her life, but all her skills can be useless when she gets into the last enemy she expected to face.
The main cast of Better to pay attention Includes young but talented artists, notably Olivia Degonge (better known for Baz Luhrmann Elvis) As a baby-sitter in his head. Meanwhile, Levi Miller (better known for A ride in time) plays his young charge, a boy who may be more than it seems. The parents of this young boy are played by two legends of the beloved genre: Virginia Madsen and Patrick Warburton (Brock Samson himself!).
Unfortunately, Better to pay attention was a bomb at the major box office, thanks in part to the film released simultaneously in theaters and video on demand. Against a budget of $ 3 million, the film won a meager book-office of only $ 188,756. Fortunately, however, this film managed to frighten surprisingly good criticism among critics.
For example, on Rotten Tomatoes, Better to pay attention has a critical note of 89%. In general, criticisms have praised the talents of young distribution and how surprising the film is. Critics have also hailed this to be a killer vacation horror film, which is right … maybe it’s a cinematographic blasphemy, but I certainly prefer to watch this film rather than the essential Christmas slasics like Black Christmas Or Silent night, deadly night part 2.
To really enjoy this film, you have to remember something important Better to pay attention: Whoever tells you that it is a comedy is directly layer for you. Of course, there are a few dark laughs to have, but this film is dark, with surprises that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Speaking of that, this film is built around a solid twist of the plot that completely Changes the story and will certainly affect the way you visualize this film on the inevitable Rewatch (and believe me when I say that it is worth looking again to catch all the little details).
So you will find Better to pay attention A modern Christmas horror masterpiece as I did, or is it a gift under the streaming tree that you would like to return to the North Pole? You will not know before broadcasting it on Tubi and discovering all the twists and turns yourself. Remember that the streaming of the film is free, but discovering a new scary classic to watch every season of the holidays is invaluable.
