I see the darkest ending was in the script, it's a different angle but still cool, the alternate ending also was good with the suburbs speech.I like the ending they ultimately chose too.

Can't wait to see the ending with cheerleaders or garbies in the trunk.

You still believe they will put this on the Blu Ray, right?

I'm still not that optimistic. They will certainly put a lot of great stuff on the Blu Ray but not another alternate ending. It'll be a positive suprise for me if they do but I just don't believe that.

I'm not optimistic about that either. It would be a great surprise, but I'm not going to expect to see any new endings.


There's a chance. You never know. In Arrow films' statement that came along with the delay for the new bly rays, they said this: "Mr Dante is also helping us secure some very exclusive extra content which has never been seen before including deleted and alternate scenes."

So you never know!

By the way, that entire statement from Arrow Films can be read here: https://www.facebook.com/ArrowVideo/posts/777814388919224

Don't worry. Just getting the blu ray in the mail and opening it will feel like Christmas No need to play to enjoy it!

Dang! So being in the US, I'll have to get a region 2 blu-ray player? I already have a region 2 player, but I can't remember if it's blu-ray or not.

Yes you'll need a bluray player region B or a Region Free BluRay Player.

Some blu ray players can be made region free by pressing a specific series of buttons on the remote. Look up your model to see if it's possible. I have an older model here that I made multi region.

Maybe it didn't start out as a comedy?

Either way, it was a great read, Thanks Kris Klopek, and I'm glad they stuck with the ending in the movie.

That's what I read somewhere. The initial version of the script wasn't meant to be funny, it was a satirical version of the "Rear Window" movie which was supposed to be reminiscent of "Rear Window", that's why they initially were calling the script "Bay Window".

It's hard to imagine The Burbs not being funny. Almost every single line amuses me in some way.

am i too late to get a copy of the screenplay?

Nope

Sorry to bring up such an old post, but I was wondering if anyone has a link to the screenplay.

I can't find it anywhere online. Odd that it's so difficult to find.
