10 Awful Movies The Flash Actors Want Us To Forget

With Tom Felton's roles as Dr. Alchemy in The Flash and Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter franchise, the Surrey-born actor has earned a reputation for starring in magical-themed projects. That's why it's no surprise he appeared in the Netflix film, A Babysitter's Guide to Monster Hunting, based on the book trilogy of the same name.

In the film, Kelly discovers that the child she's babysitting has been kidnapped by a monster. Trying to find the child, Kelly learns of a babysitter club, composed of members sworn to protect kids from the forces of evil. On their travels, they come across the monster's leader, Grand Guignol, portrayed by Felton.

Even though kids movies don't have to do much to entertain their demographic, the Babysitter's Guide to Monster Hunting commits the ultimate sin - it's really boring. Instead of filling every scene with fun and wacky action, the viewer is bombarded with a truckload of exposition every few seconds, which is guaranteed to bore kids to tears. Felton does his best with the material he is given but his performance alone can't save this dud.
