00:00All Tom Hanks wanted was a quiet vacation at home.
00:08This is what I need, Carol.
00:09I need this.
00:12Welcome to Mayfield Place, a typical street in the burbs
00:19Morning, Walter!
00:20where nothing much ever happened
00:22Walter's dog just took a dump on Rumsfield's lawn again.
00:26until the Klopeks moved in.
00:28Klopeks?
00:29Klopeks.
00:30Klopek.
00:31No one goes in.
00:32No one comes out.
00:33Neighbors from hell.
00:35It was a nice place to live.
00:37He said he thinks the Klopeks are evil incarnate.
00:41Well, you're much too smart to fall for that, aren't you, honey?
00:45But now
00:46Carol!
00:48You wouldn't want to visit there.
00:51Ray.
00:52This is Walter.
00:53No!
00:54No!
00:55No!
00:56No!
00:57No!
00:58The burbs.
00:59And I'm not coming back until I find a dead body.
01:02Ray, do you want him to take your family, kidnap them, tear their livers out and make
01:07some kind of satanic pate?
01:08We found Walter!
01:09We got a real problem.
01:10I hit the gas light!
01:11I run!
01:12God, I love this street.
01:19Tom Hanks
01:20I think we are overreacting.
01:21No.
01:22The burbs.
01:23It's one hell of a neighborhood.
01:25Hey, honey.
01:26I think we should move.
