DRIVE-IN SATURDAY
Remember your old babysitter? She was skinny and dumpy, with too many school books and she coulda won the Miss Clearasil title hands down. Once your parents were gone, she couldnt wait to stuff you under the covers, raid the fridge for Creamsicles and yak to her dumb girl friend on the phone.

DRIVE-IN SATURDAY
by Bduoard Dauphin
Remember your old babysitter? She was skinny and dumpy, with too many school books and she coulda won the Miss Clearasil title hands down. Once your parents were gone, she couldnt wait to stuff you under the covers, raid the fridge for Creamsicles and yak to her dumb girl friend on the phone. Remember how you wished you could torture her to death and teach her a lesson?
Your wishes come true in When A Stranger Calls, a new movie that depicts the ultimate baby sitters nightmare. Alone except for the kids in a darkened house, the sitter get threatening phone calk, hears creaking doors and footsteps on the stairs. A mans voice whispers: "I want to be covered with your blood." It seems like a lot for $1.50 an hour.
Things get worse. The sitter calk the cops and they dont believe her. The mad whisperer calls back: he k watching her every movement. After thinking it over for about five minutes, the sitter makes a run for it. If the Dauphin had been in her shoes, hed have been half way to Pittsburgh.
