Description of Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead:
Don't Tell Mom The Babysitter's Dead aspires to be a cross between Home Alone and Risky Business, with Christina Applegate as an inadvertent scam artist who gets in over her head and somehow pulls it off. When her mother goes to Australia for two months, Sue Ellen (Applegate) thinks she's going to be in charge--until an elderly tyrant of a babysitter arrives. But on the very first night the old lady has a heart attack and keels over. Sue Ellen and her siblings leave the body at a mortuary, only to discover afterward that all the money their mother had left for the summer was in the babysitter's clothes. So Sue Ellen has to get a job. Thanks to a trumped-up resume, she ends up as an executive assistant at a clothing manufacturer. For a while she keeps her head above water by skillfully exploiting a friendly coworker, but her brothers and sisters are running amok at home and a venomous receptionist has it in for her at work. The role-reversal humor of Sue Ellen having to mother her siblings is unsurprising, but Applegate is unexpectedly appealing; her scenes with Josh Charles (Dead Poet's Society, Threesome) have a sweet chemistry. Joanna Cassidy (Blade Runner, The Laughing Policeman) plays Sue Ellen's boss and a young David Duchovny (The X-Files, The Rapture) is a weaselly clerk. --Bret Fetzer

Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead Reviews:
got it with a big scratch on it!
2009-12-02 - i haven't got a chance to watch it, but i opened it from a BRAND new package. it had shifted during shipping, i assume, & the dvd recieved a very big scratch on it. not sure if it'll effect how the movie plays.

Don't Tell Mom the Babysitters Dead
2009-11-20 - This movie is SO much fun and very early 90's! Danielle Harris and Christina Applegate are amazing!

Great
2009-09-01 - Fast shipping, product in excellent condition. I didn't know it was the PG version though.

Christina Applegate in one of her early roles
2009-07-12 - I bought this one for my kids, and they loved it! Lots of good clean fun suitable for all ages.

The dishes are done, man!
2009-05-31 - This was a movie I loved to watch a lot when I was younger for two reasons: 1. Fashion 2. Applegate as an anti Kelly Bundy. This actually reminded me of when Applegate's character on "Married With Children" was sassy and not dumb. I love Swell's cheekiness in this movie. Yes it is far fetched for a just out of highschool fashionista to land an awesome job but it's hollywood, so we'll let it slide. Between Kenny's antics, Swell's job, Gus' sleazy come ons and a hotdog van, there's laughs all around...
