Review of The 'Burbs (1989) by Stephen C — 20 Mar 2008
Hugely negelected dark comedy gem from Joe Dante ,Featuring a Wondeful performance from Tom Hanks.
When Hanks new Neighbours move in his Blowhard neighbour convinces him that they are Extremly dark folks indeed.
Aided By Bruce Dern as a Suburban Vietnam nut and Corey Feldman as A younger Neighbour.
Hanks is drawn into a darkly comic world which takes the rise out of Suburbia.
Here Again Dante shows his deft touch combining brilliant Knockabout humour and dark Murderous moments.
Middling boxoffice at its time of Release this film is even funnier today with the Advent of Neighbour hood watch groups and such like.
A destined to be cult classic.
