found this film to be quite good. Shia LeBeauf is one of the better young actors around and he did a fine job as the teen on house arrest[he slapped an ass of teacher who was taunting him} Kale starts watching the neighbors out of boredom. at first he sees nothing odd until he notices strange things happening with a house across the street.he has to convince other friends that something very bad is going on. Not really one of those"teen movies" interesting for older people too. well done movie.
