1. Pre-call the cops cause it will probably take them 40 minutes to get to your house.
2. Go through the kids' parents' stuff while you're babysitting.
3. If someone is calling you from the house you're in, you probably won't be able to hear them talking.
4.Calling out "Rosa?" for a whole hour is a good way to pass the time while babysitting.
5. Despite speaking to the man a few times over the phone, and getting into a ten minute scuffle with him, Jill has some sort of DEEP, strong, connection to the attacker, like Laurie Strode and Michael Myers.
"We've got five guys watching him."
"It's not enough..."
What does a bean mean?share
6. If you see someone in the next house and you suspect him/her to be the one who stalks you, go to that house and be sure you are well noticed by using flashlight and yelling "Hello?"
share^^ She didn't think that there was stalker, she suspected that there is Mandrakis' son.
You can't cheat Dheath, unless you're not Sidney, Gale and Dewey... :)
^That, s I'll do #6.
6. Even though callers may scare the crap out of you and are clearly trying to make you think they may be in the house to attack you, the cops cant really do anything unless they actually threaten you.
7. Whatever you do, don't answer the phone.
8. While "Combat boots and a parka, you jerk." is clearly supposed to be a sarcastic remark, IT ISN'T FUNNY!
9. YES IT IS!
IMDb is not a fansite, contrary to popular opinion!
10. Camilla Belle is stunning
11. Babysitting is not about looking after the kids. Check on them rarely, if at all, even if you know there's a serial killer about.
12. Rich people live in WAY nicer houses than normal people.
13. But they are not ideal for running from people who want to kill you, being very isolated, having annoying automatic lights, having pools for hiding bodies, outhouses for confusing you, and of course lots of places for the killer to hide, including the rafters in the ceiling.
14. Doctors have ponds in the middle of their houses.
15. If you are in high school, your best friend and boyfriend are probably really 30 years old.
16. If the kids see the stranger in their bedroom and hide in a toy chest, the stranger won't see them.
17. When you babysit children you never met; it’s unnecessary to ask question about them. You don’t even have to know their names.
18. Jill Johnson’s friends seem to know how to get in touch with her at all times; even when she at a remote location that she never visited before. They automatically know the location and phone numbers of the place.
19. Rosa the live-in-maid likes to check on her mother at night and apparently likes to feed the birds at night as well.
20. It’s unnecessary for the babysitter to meet the other adult in the house that she is babysitting at. Randomly walking around the house and seeing each other and not talking or saying hello to each other is perfectly normal.
21. When babysitting children that are asleep; it’s unnecessary to check-on them; especially if you are getting creepy phone calls that are scaring you. Just look at the location of their room and if you don’t hear anything assume everything is fine.
22. The best part of babysitting is eating the food in the fridge.

Insanity = doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
11. Babysitting is not about looking after the kids. Check on them rarely, if at all, even if you know there's a serial killer about.
As a matter of fact, you don't even have to learn the kids' names. You can just refer to them as "kids" if you ever need to speak to them.
23.A young track runner in training cannot out run a 40-something year old serial killer
24. It's simpe to just get up and runaway after you've had a huge wad of your hair ripped out
25. Jill's ex-best friend, Tiffany will show up the house Jill is babysitting at even though she's never been before in the middle of the night; not to say sorry... But to drink the Mandrakis' alcohol
26. Tiffany is a B I * T H and everyone knows it

25. When you're being harassed by a creep and see a random light turn on next door, run outside to see whats up
26. Don't bother telling your friends to keep you company
27. Keep calling for "Rosa" when 3 hours have passed and suspect she's playing hide and seek with you
28. Check the children only when the creeper on the phone tells you to
29. Walk into dark hallways when you're being followed by a serial killer
30. Open the creepy door to the bathroom after you get a call about someone wanting your blood all over them
Seriously, was Jill raised with horses or something?
6.14.13
31. When your friend comes to visit you in the middle of nowhere, play it cool & act like nothing is wrong.
32. And when she leaves, don't even look after her, screw it, she'll be fine.
33. Don't ever watch this movie if you don't wanna waist precious time from your life that'll never be regained.
34. Always leave the security of a mansion, with an alarm system and phones, to run 50 yards away in pouring rain, to see who is in a "guest house" after you have been getting scary phone calls.
35. Never tries to watch TV more than once, even if it is more complicated than the space shuttle.
36. Agrees to babysit for a couple that the family apparently does not know from Adam, who live three time zones away, and doesn't know anything about the house or it's workings other than how to set the alarm.
37. A serial killer is willing to wander far out into the boon docks to search for nubile cute teenage girls to scare & kill after hours of deep breathing exercises on the phone.
38. A security system isn't worth the money being spent on it if a killer can get through a gated fence w/o any evidence of a car/truck being present.
39. When ordering a babysitter whom you have never laid eyes on before have them arrive at the house 5 minutes before your restaurant reservation. This way you can tell them you are running late and must get going, and just tell them a few basic things, which of course don't have anything to do with the kids you want babysitting.
40. If you decide to visit a friend who is babysitting in the middle of nowhere for a pointless 3 minute stay, then when walking back to your car in a terrified state, don't make any effort to have your keys at the ready until you have gotten as close to the car as is humanly possible.
41. Upon getting this close, fumble around in your enormous bag for a few minutes before clumsily dropping your keys and not knowing where they are. Follow this up by staring into space whilst rummaging with one hand under your car, At no time must you make any effort to look for said keys, especially when clearly terrified
42. After having the fright of your life and thankfully managing to get into your car and lock the doors, get back out of the car and try and move a rather large half of tree which has a puzzlingly thin branch. Under no circumstances think f%*k that and just put your foot down and drive over it even though, despite being long and bushy, it's is quite clearly thin enough to just drive over
My thoughts too! These modern day "horror" flicks are one predictable cliche after another...
share43- upon hearing the shower running for no reason in a bathroom inside a house that also happens to contain a killer, open the bathroom door walk right through it, keep looking STREIGHT ahead, (like a street horse), lean over turn it off, never look left, right, or behind of you until and only until you are on your way out.
share[deleted]
44 - keep calling the police over and over again that are no help when you have an alarm company that will come running if you just set off the alarm ... of course that would have made for a very short movie.
share45: Teenage girls will steal your things, ignore your kids, and attract serial killers. That is why they are bad babysitters.
share46. No, it's not a reasonable idea to lock yourself in the room with the kids, keeping not only an eye on them but easily watching the entire room.
47. Keep talking o the stranger on the phone because you enjoy the labored breathing in your ear.
48. Stand there saying ugh when he declares he wants your blood then prance off into a bathroom where a pipe mysteriously began to run.
49. Though someone is obviously not home, pretend they are for reassurance.
50. Don't think that someone had to be setting on all of these non- motion activated devices, therefore being in the house.... no, they're doing this all from outside.
51. Always, stay in the same room with a dead body and scream.
52. When all of the lights are off in a strange house that holds a psychopath, wander the halls aimlessly and remember the resounding theme: NEVER CHECK ON THE KIDS!!!!
53. Feel accomplished when you discover the kids you should have been watching hid from you in a toy chest due to them not knowing you at all; their caretaker.
54. Watch the man stalking you with two small children, rather than running over to the guest house or stealing a car.
There are many, many other things but this movie is just too ridiculous to continue the list.
I found this movie quite entertaining, haha! I found it exciting, loved the atmosphere, the story was a bit fragmented, but nonetheless, the story was clear! I think all movies should have a '100 things learned from <title>' this was a very entertaining thread and I am in a definite need to re-watch this movie.
shareany one who can finish this movie even once should check his or her brain.

55 if your best friend is a biatch then screw yourself.
56 people have alarm in their houses so rosa would leave without turn it off.
57 people have alarm in the house so they can leave the garage door open.
58 all what you need for a horror movie is horror music, there is no need for horror script, phone calls can scare the crap out of people.

59 when you call the police there is no need to mention that the garage door was open all the time, so you can feel safe at the house.
