Harold is the perfect neighbor. He's quiet, neat, and when the new neighbors drunkenly crash into and destroy his mailbox in the middle of the night, he fixes it before they get up in the morning and insist that they don't owe him anything for the trouble. He's the perfect dinner guest and an all round nice harmless guy. But his public persona is just a front for what lies underneath, a total psycho with a family comprised of his victims. This is a very effective film, well shot and well acted. I honestly didn't see the ending coming, which was a nice surprise. I enjoyed the movie, even though it was unsettling. Also there was a nod to the Three Stooges. While Harold was in the hospital, you can hear them paging Dr. Howard and Dr. Fine over the loud speaker, which is right out of one of their short films.
