Full Storyline:
The trailer starts with a family of 4 who are unhappy with their neighborhood and are looking for a fresh
start. We used a voice-over of the dad to explain this, as clips are shown of the dad being miserable at
work, the mum having trouble bondingwith the neighbors and the kids (brother and sister) being bullied
at school. Because of this, they make the decision of moving houses and schools as a solution to their
problem. As a coincidence they meet a real estate broker outside their house one morning who at first
appears to be creepy but turns out to be rather nice, so he shows them a house a few miles away with the
perfect neighbors, school and town. Everything seems great, so they buy the house and move in as soon
as possible however the mum begins to see signs that everything might not be all perfect as she finds out
that every family that has lived in this house has suddenly disappeared. Her suspicions soon fade when
her husband finds a great job, his kids start to love school and make great friends and she gets to know
the neighbors more. But at the end of the week they receive a letter explain the town’s curfew of
10:00pm which applies to both adult and children, they decide to listen to it to make a good impression
but they do not take it seriously. The next day their dog runs out of the house after the curfew and their
son tries to chase him down and sees all of the neighbors carrying out disturbing behavior, such as
torturing a man and killing a group of teens. The trailer carries on showing clips of the family trying to
escape and tell everyone what they have seen the neighbors do, but the neighbors make it hard for them.
