He'sia strangeriin an even stranger land…Suburbia.
Tom Hanks portrays suburbanite Ray Peterson, whose plans for a peaceful vacation are disturbed by a creepy new family on the block, in this outrageous suspense-comedy.
To the disappointment of his wife Carol, Ray decides to spend a relaxing week at home, and soon gets into trouble with his neighbors-a hefty busybody, a freaked-out ex-soldier, and a spacey teenager - as they observe the strange happenings next door at the Klopek's bizarre residence.
When the neighborhood grouch suddenly disappears, the men are convinced the ramshackle house hides some hideous clues. Armed with assault rifles, high-powered binoculars and a shovel, they decide to see for themselves exactly what is going on in the Kloped place. Set in an average neighborhood that is anything but average, THE 'BURBS blends slapstick comedy and spine-thrilling mystery with the type of witty humor that has made Tom Hanks one of today's most popular stars.

Come back to us Tom - 3.75 out of 5 (3/16/2001)
I miss the old Tom Hanks. I've seen him in movies like "Forrest Gump" and
"Castaway" and I admit that he is a great dramatic actor, but I also loved
him as a comedian. Who can forget "Bachelor Party", "Bosom Buddies",
"Volunteers" and "Joe Versus The Volcano"?
Okay, so I was kidding on the last two, but one of my favorites and also
one of the most underrated movies is "The Burbs" starring Hanks as Ray
Peterson, a stressed out guy who just wants to spend his vacation at home
