Neighbors (1981).....

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
One of the coolest comedy movies ever. I use to watch this all the time when I was a kid, and I didn't really know why either.

Sort of a rare comedy, but it's nothing short of a masterpiece. A bunch of my friends got together last night and we plowed right through this movie, laughing our heads off. It's an extremely moody dark comedy with some of the most amazing sound effects (trombone and this weird sci-fi synth thing) that just put you in an awesome nightmarish daze.

Anyone have this on DVD and wouldn't mind letting me know how I could obtain one? This movie has yet to be released over in the US. It's PAL only, and even then it was in pretty limited production.

Also, if you just want to talk about it, post!

This is easily my favorite Belushi film, and one of my favorite dark comedies ever.

The first time I ever saw the scene with Belushi shaving quickly to "Stayin' Alive", and then splashing on the after shave, I about fell out of my chair.

This is a great under-rated movie. Totally off-beat and quirky.

It was originally supposed to have the roles reversed, with Belushi the wildman and Akroid the stiff guy, but the two of them decided on their own to switch roles, and to me it paid off with a totally different really funny movie.

Wheres the bluray? I read in Wired about all the trouble between Belushi and Avildsen the director but they managed to pull of a very dark comedy. Rootin around for Romona!
