See the films the platforms disagree about most →During a quiet Christmas season, a teenage babysitter is looking after a twelve-year-old boy in his suburban home. What begins as a normal night takes a terrifying turn when intruders appear to be trying to break in. However, the situation is far more sinister and psychologically twisted than a simple home invasion.
