A red band trailer for the Yuletide horror/comedy Better Watch Out (review) has been released, and it comes gift wrapped with gore, violence, naughty language, and enough bodies to make the Grim Reaper’s scythe spin! Let’s just say that Santa is definitely putting some people on his “naughty” list this year.

Starring Olivia DeJonge (The Visit), the movie follows a babysitter who must defend her 12-year-old ward, played by Pan‘s Levi Miller, from intruders that have planned an extraordinary home invasion. Virginia Madsen and Patrick Warburton also star along with Ed Oxenbould, Aleks Mikic, and Dacre Montgomery of “Stranger Things.”

The film hails from director Chris Peckover, who co-wrote it with Zack Kahn from a story by Kahn. Producers are Thornquest and Sidonie Abbene of Storm Vision Entertainment and Hambel and Paul Jensen of Best Medicine Productions.

Look for Better Watch Out in theaters and On Demand from Well Go USA on October 6th. It will hit UK theaters on December 8th.

Synopsis:
When you think of the suburbs, you think safety; but this holiday night the suburbs are anything but safe. Ashley (Olivia DeJonge) thought this babysitting job was going to be an easy one, but the night takes a turn when dangerous intruders break in and terrorize her and the twelve-year-old boy, Luke (Levi Miller), she’s caring for. Ashley defends her charge to the best of her ability, only to discover this is no normal home invasion.
