Babysitter Josie Jane (Riley Scott) attempts to "Home Alone" her way out of danger when a cult composed of people who talk like '80s wrestlers working supernatural gimmicks breaks into the home where she's just finishing up her shift, killing several members of the resident family and resolving to make further blood sacrifices just as soon as they locate the black mask totem that's hidden somewhere in the house. "Babysitter Must Die" is enjoyable in an ironic sort of way, but there's only so much its limited cast can do with their inane characters and only so much enjoyment one can take in an inferior home invasion horror-comedy that inevitably invites comparisons to better movies like "The Babysitter", "Becky" and "Better Watch Out". Having a badly miscast lead doesn't help, either, although Melinda Yeaman is great as the main eyepatch-wearing baddie, even if she can't quite overcome the dialogue she's given. And if there's one thing a movie like this definitely needs, it's more gore than what "Babysitter Must Die" lamely offers up.
