When A Stranger Calls Back (1993)

Made for Showtime, airing April 4th in the US.

Filmed entirely in Canada.

The story: Five years ago, high school student Julia took the last-minute job of babysitting two small children, for a family she had never met before.

While there, she received many harassing phone calls until a stranger showed up at the door, looking to use the telephone.

When the stranger would not go away, Julia gave in to the stranger's wishes and tried making a phone call to a car repair shop.

Much to her dismay, the phone was dead...

But Julia pretended she was making the phone calls.

Nothing Julia tried mattered because the stranger had it in for her and the children she was babysitting that night.

Luckily for her, she made it out alive.

Present day.

Julia is a college student living alone, off-campus.

She has been experiencing some odd things around her apartment which indicate she is not alone.

When she finds a child's shirt in her closet, she finally reports what she has been experiencing to the police.

They call in the help of Jill Johnson, a woman who had a very similar experience when she was a young babysitter herself.

Jill knows this isn't just some random situation. She knows all about what happened that horrible night when Julia was babysitting.
