TL;DR Summary

The remake of "Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead" featuring a mostly Black cast doesn't significantly enhance the underwhelming storyline of the original. Directed by Wade Allain-Marcus and with Tyra Banks as one of its executive producers, the film closely follows the original plot with minor changes and seems more suited for streaming than a theatrical release. Despite some amusing lines and the charms of lead actress Simone Joy Jones, the remake lacks the subversiveness that could have justified its existence, and even fans of the original may not find much to get excited about.
