Synopsis
Adventures in Babysitting (1987) is a teen comedy from Chris Columbus you can watch online on iFILM. Elizabeth Shue leads as Chris Parker, who expects a dull evening minding the Anderson kids and instead lands in the wildest night of her life.
After her date falls apart, the high schooler agrees to babysit little Sara and her older brother Brad. Easy money, she figures: magazines, the phone, nothing to it. Then her friend Brenda calls, stranded alone at a bus station in downtown Chicago. So the whole crew piles into the car and heads into the city. What follows is a chain of disasters: a stolen station wagon, car thieves, a blues bar where Chris has to sing for her life, gangsters, and a blowout on the freeway. All she wants is to get everyone home before the parents do.
This was Chris Columbus's directing debut, years before Home Alone and Harry Potter. Watch for Vincent D'Onofrio and Penelope Ann Miller in small roles. A fast, funny ride through one runaway night. Stream Adventures in Babysitting (1987) online on iFILM.
