#28. The Burbs
Joe Dante’s 1989 horror-comedy The ‘Burbs is an all-time favorite film starring Tom Hanks. The ‘Burbs is a very unusual film and Tom Hanks plays a man who moves into a new neighborhood where it appears that all is not what it seems, with one family, in particular, being very creepy and leaving him wondering what’s going on.
We all know that Tom Hanks is a very versatile actor, and he was hesitant about playing a part in this film. Regardless of that, the part where he picks up the stretcher and tosses it in the ambulance before collapsing on top of it again wasn’t scripted but it was kept since it was funny.
