A 90's Comedy Classic on the Big Screen

It is quite possibly the greatest event that the Valley has ever seen: Saturday, June 26th's screening of "Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead" at Madcap Theaters on Mill Ave is projected to be the strangest yet most original screening of a movie we all remember and love.

When DTMTBD first premiered in June of 1991, the film had a mediocre opening and was originally called a box-office failure. Thanks to word-of-mouth and loyal lovers of the movie, the film ended up grossing over 25 million dollars.

Now, on the 20th anniversary of its release, Madcap Theaters has planned an homage to the hilarious and lovable movie by showing the film in its original 35mm theatrical cut. The festivities don't end with a simple showing of the movie though. The entire day is dedicated to all of the greatest scenes. Not only will there be a live reenactment of the terrible 80's fashion show that appeared in the film, but there will also be Kenny's Waffle Eating Contest (paying tribute to the movie's hilarious scene of 'stoners' making hundreds of waffles).

This event will surely prove to be the best time you can have on a glorious Saturday in Tempe, and as for a good movie to watch on your day off: this one is the ultimate.
