A babysitter is stalked by masked killer in Night of the Reaper trailer

August 26, 2025 by Amie Cranswick

Shudder has shared a poster and trailer for writer-director Brandon Christensen’s 80s-set horror Night of the Reaper.

Following the brutal murder of a babysitter, a young woman returns to her hometown and is roped into taking on a babysitting job of her own, but when the local sheriff receives a mysterious piece of evidence that same night, he is led into a dangerous game of cat and mouse believing the killer has another target in mind. 

The film stars Jessica Clement, Ryan Robbins, Summer H. Howell, Matty Finochio, Max Christensen, Ben Cockell, Bryn Samuel, Savannah Miller, Susan Serrao, Huxley Fisher, Isla Spencer, Blair Young, and Drake Seipert. Check out the trailer below…

In the heart of a quiet, 1980s suburb, college student Deena returns home and reluctantly takes on a last-minute babysitting job. That same night, the local sheriff receives a cryptic package that pulls him into a sinister scavenger hunt that sets off a game of cat and mouse with a dangerous killer. As the clues unravel, Deena finds herself ensnared in a nightmarish mystery that she may not survive.

Night of the Reaper arrives on Shudder on September 19th.
