Neighbors – Retro VHS Style

A Comic-Nightmare

“an offbeat experiment in hallucinatory black humor” – Roger Ebert

Earl Keese (John Belushi, Animal House) is a slightly overweight, fairly average guy who is approaching middle age. He leads a reasonably comfortable life with his family in their suburban home… until the house next door is bought by a truly odd couple, Vic (Dan Aykroyd, Ghostbusters) and Ramona (Cathy Moriarty, Raging Bull), who quickly proceed to drive Earl crazy. Vic’s lunatic behavior has Earl running in circles while Ramona’s coarse seductiveness leaves him panting. In short, Earl’s tranquil life is suddenly turned upside down. If it’s laughs you want, these are the neighbors to look in on. John G. Avildsen (The Karate Kid) directs a dream comedy cast (including SNL regular Tim Kazurinsky) from a screenplay by the one and only Larry Gelbart (Tootsie, The Wrong Box).
