So, 'Babysitter' from 2004 is this oddity that sort of blurs the lines of comedy and absurdity. You've got this guy, Plop, who's a babysitter but not in any conventional sense. It's a wild ride through a semi-retarded redneck character, and the way he interacts with these parents is both cringe-worthy and oddly hilarious. I don’t even know how to describe the pacing—it’s like a slow burn that sometimes trips over itself, but it builds this strange atmosphere that keeps you guessing. And the practical effects are low-budget, but there's a certain charm in their simplicity. It's definitely a film that sticks with you for all the wrong reasons, and that's part of its appeal, I suppose.
This film has had a limited format release, often popping up in obscure collections and at niche film festivals. It's quite scarce, making it a notable find for those into cult oddities. The demand among collectors seems to grow steadily due to its unique premise and the conversations it sparks. If you're diving into the world of underground cinema, this one might just be the quirky gem you're looking for.
