The plot of this movie sounds exactly like a British movie from 1971 called "FRIGHT"...when a young girl agrees to take a babysitting job in a rambling old country home in the british countryside she is terrorised by an escaped lunatic.
I wish writers of so called new movies would acknowledge these things.

There is such thing as a chiller movie. LOOK IT UP.

It was nice that you helped the OP at the end but you were a bit harsh. I thought that 'chiller' was an appropriate word so I checked:
1. a person or thing that chills.
2. Informal. a frightening or suspenseful story or film; melodrama.
Definitions taken from dictionary.com
Hey regarding the word THRILLER. We use the word CHILLER here in the UK to describe a movie thats a mixture of a Thriller and a Horror. So next time you try critique my ENGLISH remember I come from the land where the language originated so next time check your definitions before you jump into trying to give anyone a school lesson.
Taken from the Webster World Dictionary.
Chiller: a novel, film, etc. with a frightening, often weird or supernatural, theme, as involving psychopathic murder, vampires, etc.
As far as "Babysitter Wanted" is concerned it turned out to be a movie that starts like the movie "Fright" but ends up like "Rosemarys baby". Pretty good CHILLER overall.
They won't admit it but it has the same premise, pretty much the whole concept is stolen form the movie.
Still, its an indie release, and a good movie nonetheless.
The name is GAMBIT! REMEMBER IT!
Yes the premise is the same, babysitter gets stalked but NOTHING else is similar in any way to Fright or When a stranger calls!
You HAVE seen the movie right?
I like Chiller. Cool word for a thriller/horror. And I agree NOTHING like Stranger. People see someone answering the phone and I guess they can't think any further outside the box, Stranger branded that pretty well, but this film was waaaaay better than Stranger.
