More than 30 years later, we still reference it to each other. Lines like "the dishes are done, man" or "well, it needed it..." still get us. It's a truly memorable '90s teen movie that will always have a special place in our hearts. I still put it on around the house from time to time, even if it's just for background noise. When we showed it to our Gen-Z daughter, though, I don't think she got the appeal at all. I think you might have to be Gen-X to really appreciate this one.

See more Blake- N @PBSAniDom Jun 6, 2026 Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead is an okay comedy that has a few entertaining moments but never fully won me over. The premise is creative, and there are some funny situations throughout, but the overall experience felt average rather than memorable. The cast does a decent job, and the movie has enough energy to keep things moving. Some jokes land better than others, and while the film has a certain charm, it doesn't consistently deliver the laughs needed to stand out among other comedies from its era. Overall, Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead is watchable and occasionally amusing, but it wasn't a film that left a strong impression on me. It's not bad, but it's not something I would consider a favorite either. I'd rate it a 5/10. See more Read all reviews
