''[[The Sitter]]'' is a 2011 comedy directed by David Gordon Green starring [[Jonah Hill]] as Noah, a university student who gets suspended and ends up back at home living with his mother. After a heated debate with his mom, he's coerced into babysitting his [[Hot Mom|attractive neighbor's]] three kids for the evening. As fate would have it, though, Noah receives an invitation to a party across town with the promise of sex, and decides to go with the [[Terrible Trio]] in tow. However, what should normally be a simple trek through [[Big Applesauce|New York City]] turns into a zany, madcap misadventure Noah wasn't expecting.

Definitely ''not'' to be confused with ''[[Adventures in Babysitting]]''.
