When secretive new neighbors move in next door, suburbanite Ray Peterson and his friends let their paranoia get the best of them as they start to suspect the newcomers of evildoings and commence an investigation. But it's hardly how Ray, who much prefers drinking beer, reading his newspaper and watching a ball game on the tube expected to spend his vacation.
This is fear that grows in daylight, on a cul-de-sac where nothing should be wrong. Joe Dante turns idle suspicion into a slow fever, letting your imagination fill the quiet house next door with horrors that may or may not exist. The dread here is comic, but it never quite lets you laugh it off.
