PLOT SUMMARY: Following an incident where Cole learned that his babysitter was a cultist, he tries to move on and survive high school. But the past has a way of creeping up on him.
As kids, who among us haven’t played with the neighborhood kids? At some point, even with the lack of communication we must have at least watched the neighborhood kids grow up and feel like you almost know everything about them.
And then comes a day when everything you thought you knew about someone, turns out to be completely wrong. We never really know our neighbors, do we?
The Babysitter: Killer Queen picks up where the first part left off, with Cole deciding he doesn’t need a babysitter anymore. At first, it seems like Cole is going to be the guy who is going to stand up to his bullies with his newfound courage after fighting off his babysitter and her evil cult friends.
But nope, Cole has become a pariah because everyone thinks he lied about the cult and the death of his babysitter and her friends. After all, no bodies were recovered from the scene.
Cole is pushed around, has basketballs thrown at him and the counsellor who is also the school nurse keeps ridiculing him and jabbing him with needles without warning.
But Cole doesn’t really need to wear a three-piece suit to school.
Maybe he thinks people will take him seriously if he wears a suit? Of course, the high schoolers don’t and push him around. Three-piece suits are worn when you’re an adult. Teens need to wear jeans and shirts and act cool all the time.
Cole has no friends, probably because of the suit, and relies on his friend and neighbor Mel for company. But she has a boyfriend, Jimmy, who keeps asking Cole uncomfortable questions about the incident.
Back in class, everyone is introduced to a transfer student, Phoebe who loves sporting crazy hairstyles and heart-shaped sunglasses.
To keep away from everyone, she makes up a lie about being pregnant and then goes ahead and steals a classmate’s yogurt. She doesn’t care about germs and licks the same spoon.
The next day, Cole finds a pamphlet for a psychiatric academy and realizes his parents too don’t believe his story about being attacked by the satanic cult two years ago.
At school, he confides in Mel who tells him to ditch school and make a choice to have fun. She also tells him that almost everyone in the school is on some drug or another. She doesn’t know what Phoebe is on and that there is a rumor that she killed her parents.
Phoebe is shown to open a locker and find a stuffed bunny inside with a note that says: It ends tonight.
In class, Phoebe is being her usual eccentric self while Cole has his shoelaces tied by a bully that causes him to trip.
An announcement comes up asking Cole to come to the principal’s office. Cole imagines seeing a blue side where he is imprisoned by his parent’s plan for their son to be sent to a special school, vs a red side where Mel invites him to the Lake.
Since he has a crush on her, he goes with her.
At the Lake, everyone is dancing but Cole feels like the odd one out and wants to go home. Mel convinces him to stay with her friends. Phoebe takes a jet ski and drives away.
At night, Cole is on a boat with Mel and her friends.
They plan a game where Cole ends up with Mel in a closet and gets a chance to make out with her.
Cole gets out and as the game resumes, he is harassed by Jimmy and his friend who wants to know more about the incidents from the first movie. Mel tells them to leave him alone and that who cares what was written in the book. Cole wonders when he told Mel about the boom when out of nowhere, Mel slits the throat of one of her friends. Blood splatters everywhere and Cole realizes he was invited to the party because Mel and her friends too wrote their names in the book.
Poor Cole realizes he never did have a true friend. Mel was using him for his “innocent” blood. He freaks out and is further shocked when all the characters from the previous movie pop in, all of them ready to take his blood and complete the ritual before sunrise.
Phoebe pops in asking to borrow gas and Cole thinks she’s on in it too because she’s weird. Phoebe makes excuses and gets back on her jet ski. Cole runs and gets on behind her.
The gas leak leaves a trail on the water that makes it easy for Mel to detect where they could have gone by using a lighter.
The boat explodes before Cole can convince and tell Phoebe what is really going on.
She tells him about the cabin she needs to go to that is further ahead.
They argue and decide to find their own way out of this. Phoebe approaches a stranger and asks for a ride. He says sure but is waiting for his wife to collect firewood.
He becomes weird with her and reveals that he doesn’t have a wife anymore. Cole appears and saves Phoebe from the stranger.
They take his car and drive away but Sonya is the first to find them after the characters from the previous film and the new ones get into a fight about generation gaps even though they are pretty much the same age for now.
They crash the car and Sonya is decapitated by the surfboard on it. Cole and Phoebe hide under the car when the others come looking for them. A rattlesnake crawls over Cole and Phoebe warns him to remain quiet.
The cultists hear a sound and investigate, only for Phoebe to toss the rattlesnake at them. The cultists walk away while Cole and Phoebe make a getaway.
Allison gets bossy and asks Max and John to go look for Cole while she rests. A series of flashbacks show how Bee got them all interested in joining the cult.
Allison looks up and sees Cole and Phoebe jumping over a gap above her. She follows them while Phoebe expresses her thanks for Cole showing up because no one else ever came back for her.
Allison gives them both a chase and ends up getting stuck between two rocks. Cole and Phoebe pull her legs, causing her head to rip off.
They are then found by Jimmy, Diego, Max and John.
Meanwhile, back home Cole’s parents meet with Mel’s father who is more concerned with his missing car than his daughter.
He strikes up a friendship with Cole’s dad much to the chagrin of Cole’s mother who knows both men would slack off rather than look for their children.
Cole and Phoebe manage to shake the four pursuers and head to the dock. They find a boat and can’t figure out the code but Max unknowingly gives them an important clue that gives them the code. They start the boat and Max follows them.
Jimmy and Diego no longer want to get involved and back away. Mel smirks because she knows what is going to happen to those who walk away after pledging their souls. They disintegrate immediately. John decides to stay after watching them turn to ashes.
Phoebe uses a silly string can spray at Max when he attempts to climb on the boat and uses a lighter to set his face on fire. Then they use the boat’s propeller to shred him.
Phoebe and Cole reach the cabin and Phoebe admits she did kill her parents.
She was young and in another car that crashed into her parent’s car that caused them all to fall off a cliff.
Cole tells her that he’s not going to tell her it is t her fault but that it was an accident after all.
At the cabin, Cole has to pee and he tells Phoebe to look away and cover her ears. Phoebe is too curious about how guys pee because she does none of those things and spooks Cole causing him to accidentally pee on her. When he offers to clean her up as the pee hit her face, she tells him she’s okay with it. Is she really?
First, she licks some random guy’s yogurt spoon then doesn’t mind his pee on her face?
Apparently, Cole doesn’t mind Phoebe’s hygiene habits and proceeds to kiss her when they hide in the basement. They also go further than kissing as told by random images.
Mel calls Cole’s father and tells him his son has gone crazy and doesn’t believe she’s innocent either. He immediately tells this to Mel’s father who both get into the car after getting high and head to the lake.
When they arrive, Cole realizes he will have to come out of his hiding place or Mel will kill him. He and Phoebe walk out with crossbows and the dads naturally believe their children have gone nuts.
John attacks them and accidentally pulls the chandelier on himself that stabs him right through the face.
THE BABYSITTER: KILLER QUEEN Ending Explained with spoilers!
Cole is taken away by his father who drugs him rather than believe what his son is trying to tell him.
Mel kills her father for caring more about the cat than her. She captures Phoebe and takes her to the cove. Phoebe tells her that Cole won’t come but Mel thinks she knows better.
Cole comes to when his father fumbles at the gas station. He locks the door and is informed by Mel as to where she is. He comes to save Phoebe and offers to be sacrificed.
Another shocker reveals Bee coming out of the water. Phoebe recognizes her too and Cole realizes Bee wasn’t only his babysitter but also Phoebe’s.
She tells him that Bee was the one she was with in the other car that caused the accident.
The others emerge, all of them still fine. Cole is dumbfounded at their return and wonders if he will always be haunted by them. Even if there is another sequel? Let's see.
They fill a chalice with Cole's blood and proceed to drink it. They think they will be empowered by it.
Minutes later, all of them experience searing pain and start to disintegrate. Bee is the only one who doesn't drink. Shocked, they discover that Cole isn't "innocent" anymore after being with Phoebe. Max is proud of him and cheers him on as he disintegrates. phoebe realizes Bee has saved them.
bee reveals she changed the night Col admits he loved her but was disappointed in her. She reveals she wasn't always a terrible person and that after the car crash, she was broken-hearted to learn that Phoebe may not survive.
She makes a deal with the nurse who is actually a demon that she would do anything to save Phoebe.
Apparently, that was when Bee got into the cult thing.
So was she Phoebe's babysitter before Cole? After making the deal, she stopped being nice, recruited more people into the cult and then changed when Cole gave her that poignant speech. And then Bee knew they would all return two years later? And Cole would be the victim again?
So she concocts a plan to get Phoebe together with Cole and somehow knew they would hit it off and get intimate with each other. In the end, she decides she's done being the babysitter and rather disintegrates than suffer Cole's friendship.
As she leaves, the evil book is thrown aside. Cole's father sees Bee vanish and finally believes his son, although he probably is still high and is bound to believe he imagined the whole thing when he sobers up.
Cole returns to school with a changed attitude and is now in jeans and a jacket, something cool people wear. Not a suit because only nerds and outcasts dress formal. The counsellor is pleased that Cole is no longer innocent. He clearly supports teenagers not being "innocent" anymore.
In the end, we see the wind flipping the pages of the book left behind, waiting for someone to come camping and pick up the book and agree to pledge their soul.
A goofy horror movie that is interesting in parts, although the comedy sequences seem forced, unlike the first part where there was more of a natural flow. Also, the surprise twists were more shocking in the first part than this one where Mel does look like she's up to something from the very beginning.
Scare scale: 3.5/5
