Synopsis: HE’S A MAN OF PEACE IN A SAVAGE LAND… SUBURBIA.
The films of director Joe Dante have taken us to some strange places – a mysterious Chinatown antique store in Gremlins; a secluded resort populated by werewolves in The Howling; even deep inside the human body in Innerspace. But now he takes us to the strangest place of all – surburbia!

Family man Ray Peterson (Tom Hanks) is looking forward to a week of putting his feet up at home in the quiet, leafy cul-de-sac of Mayfield Place. But his plans are scuppered by the arrival of new next-door neighbours, The Klopeks, whose behaviour and habits are more than just a little kooky. But things go from kooky to downright sinister when local old boy Walter disappears, leading Ray and his buddies to suspect their new neighbours of killing and eating him! Sure, the Klopeks are a strange bunch what with their digging up the backyard in the middle of the night – but they’re not devil-worshipping cannibal killers… are they?

If you’re looking for a knowing slice of tongue-in-cheek terror then look no further than The ’Burbs. A standout horror comedy from a director who has given us more than his fair share of fun frighteners, The ’Burbs assembles a superb cast including Tom Hanks, Bruce Dern, Carrie Fisher and Corey Feldman in a tall tale of small-town terror. You’ll never look at those eccentric neighbours in the same way again!

i for one can not wait for this badboy to get despatched,any blu of this film will have me dribbling. how i managed to hold off buying the german amaray till this came(especially after the delay) is beyond me. ill just checking my order daily now to see if its sent:) just makes it worse when they are advertising as in stock on the site but at warehouse on the order:(
 
I've just sent Arrow an email about this seeing as I ordered it day 1 and my order is still 'at the warehouse'. Be interesting to see if it gets moving now.

I will let you know what there response is
Its not good that customers who placed an order on the day it went live on the 19th Feb have not got their orders shipped while others who only ordered yesterday have got their order shipped
Something not right

Aye, I ordered mine day one and still waiting. To see people that only just placed an ordered and get it shipped the following day is kind of annoying.
 
This looks like a great one to own. I did enjoy the movie… will be great to see it in this quality. Thanks for the pics everybody!!
Am I the only one who tends to favour the non steelbook arrow releases? For this instance, I think I'd rather this though, but in general I really enjoy the double covers.
