I first saw this after the early show movie on my local TV station in the early 70s. I was shown it again in home ec class in junior high school when we talked about babysitting. Having extra phones in the house was still a luxury where I lived, but I knew people who did. Its a simple story and one that is now cliche. At the time it was shocking to my impressionable brain.. There are images that are burned into my mind, the killer picking up a smoldering butt and smoking it, the babysitter slamming the freezer door in the killer's face. Scary short film and I wish I could see it again. Would it be as impact full 50 years later? I've recently watched The Sitter, I wish both were around to compare.
