Neighbors

1981

Earl Keese (John Belushi) lives in an orderly house with his wife, Enid (Kathryn Walker), and daughter, Elaine (Lauren-Marie Taylor). His routine is disrupted when loudmouthed Vic (Dan Aykroyd) and his oversexed wife, Ramona (Cathy Moriarty), move in next door. Ramona and Vic subject Earl and his family to a bizarre dinner date and a near-death encounter in the front yard. Soon, Earl is ready to take drastic action to get rid of Vic and Ramona -- but he might lose everything in the process.

In a not-too-distant suburb, on a very quiet street . . . Earl Keese, a man who leads a routine suburban life, sits calmly waiting for his dinner. Little does he know - This may be his last home-cooked meal . . . For somewhere in time and space exists a world, a comic nightmare world, where anything can happen. A world that this reserved, hardworking homeowner is about to enter. In the next 24 hours he will experience things that he has never experienced before and leave behind things he will never experience again and somehow his life will never be the same. For Earl Keese is about to meet . . . The Neighbors.
