Adventures in Babysitting (1987)

Picture It: 1987, Opening Night, "Adventures in Babysitting", Showcase Pontiac Theatres 7-10, Bottomless Popcorn-n-Soda Refills.

I've seen this movie over the years, and never realized Anthony Rapp was the red-headed guy.

CBC in Canada only owned the rights to a few movies in the mid 1990s, and this was one of them. They'd play it every summer for a few years - it brings back memories. Thanks for reminding me, OP.

One of the best openings to an 80s movie

Vincent D’Onofrio in “Adventures in Babysitting.”

Woof!

OK you've now seen the only 2 reasons to see the move. Time to move on, NEXT!

The child actress with the Thor hangup wisely grew up to be a lesbian, graduated from Yale, became an attorney, and married her partner Lara in 2008.

And could have been a blues singer to rival Bessie Smith if she had so chosen.

I’ve never seen this movie. I’ve only seen the reboot from last year.

R8 who knew that existed?

I loved this movie when it first came out. The Thor girl is my second favorite kidnapped kid in an 80’s movie; #1 is the little girl in DC Cab, I live when she calls the kidnapper a pitiful bitch.

Ooh, I just remembered a third - Savannah Smiles

Anthony Rapp is gay and out. Keith Coogan didn't marry until hi 40's. Did they fool around?

Don't FUCK with the babysitter.

Not too many actors could believably pass as a high school student in an iconic 80s movie and an iconic 90s movie "Dazed and Confused" like Anthony Rapp.

I really enjoyed this movie when it came out.
