The Re-Deadening is a horror film about a possessed killer doll, called Baby Button Eyes, who was not only homicidal herself, but also encouraged others to commit murder. Lenny had a role in the film as one of the doll's victims, which he said he got because "The director saw my picture in a medical book."

Homer took Bart and Lisa, and Rod and Todd Flanders, who he was babysitting, to see the movie. Although Homer took a blasé view of the on-screen horror, the children were scared to the point of turning away from the screen.
