Jennifer (Silverstone) is a teen who has been hired to baby-sit the kids whilst The Tuckers go to a party and proceed to get inebriated, whilst Mr. Tucker fantasizes about Jennifer. Meanwhile, her boyfriend decides to spy on Jennifer at the Tucker house, with another young man also fixated on her.
Poor Alicia Silverstone, whilst she's a lovely, charming actress - she wasn't offered any good roles besides Cher in the iconic 90s comedy "Clueless" back in 1995. The same year this film was released. She seemed to settle for starring in cheap and crappy comedies or the likes of "Batman & Robin" - the less said about that the better.
"The Babysitter" seems to follow the typical 90s thriller formula along the lines of "Sleeping With The Enemy" or "Single White Female" but don't be fooled, this film is much more shallow and uninvolving. The film is practically plotless, just an excuse to show Silverstone taking a bath or cutaways to pointless fantasy scenes whilst the disgusting perverted male characters lust over her until the credits roll. This may be the sleaziest "erotic" thriller I've ever seen - despite having no eroticism or thrills.
I feel bad that Silverstone even had her name attached to this steaming pile, the film has no redeeming qualities. It's degrading to women, perverted, boring, ugly looking and pointless. Alicia deserved better!
