- Critics' reviews
-
-
"This would-be tribute to youthful anarchy fails the junior-high acid test: Will my parents hate it? Dead is too dead on arrival to inspire much emotion either way"
-
"Despite its preposterous storyline, 'Don't Tell Mom The Babysitter's Dead' is surprisingly entertaining and fun."
-
"Applegate gets by without a false moment in a role that's more serious and has more angles than the airhead she plays on television. I want to see the movies she'll be making in about five years."
