Welcome to Movie Mandates, a review show in which sibling cinephiles Andrew and Keleigh force each other to watch movies according to a monthly theme!  It’s December and we’re celebrating holidays most happy with movies that are at least tangentially related to the holidays, if not necessarily happiness.  As such, my mandated movie is Better Watch Out, a home invasion movie where a babysitter and her young charges are in mortal danger!  No seriously, this is one of those movies where kids can die!

So, maybe not happy (unless you really don’t like kids) but it takes place during Christmas so it totally counts!

  • 0:00 – Trivial Trivia
  • 12:30 – Better Watch Out review
  • 1:03:07 – Next episode’s mandated movie

We’ll be back in two weeks with another mandated movie.  If you’d like to watch it, click here to find where it’s streaming or available to rent.
