Bill Hader on The 'Burbs 

"He can't come out until he resembles the man that I married." "Carol, we don't have that kind of time."

The burbs is one of my favorite movies of all time, never get tire of watching it. And Joe Dante is one of the most underrated directors ever, people are surprised of how many films of his they loved without even realizing it.

Probably my most-quoted movie of all time. Any time someone compliments a photo in my house: "..came with the frame..."

"Bout a 9 on the tension scale there Rube."

The Burbs is one of the most underrated films in Hollywood history.

"There go the goddamn brownies" is somehow one of the funniest movie lines ever for me. Also, Rick Ducommun absolutely kills in this movie.

Everything Bill Hader loves about this movie mirrors my own feelings. The Burbs is a gem.

Bruce Dern is such an insane, hilarious chud in this movie. The part at the end where he sees Hans trying to get away in his little German outfit and Bruce yells "Hey, Pinocchio!" before chasing him down, it absolutely kills me. 😆

"Sure was damp today" is my go-to line for awkward silence.

The scene near the beginning where Art is eating all their leftovers from breakfast and he takes a handful of dog food as Carrie Fisher walks through with the dog bowl? Tremendous.

Bruce Dern’s slow fall on the rotted porch is one of my favorite movie gags ever. And instead of being pissy with the neighbor, which would’ve been completely in character, he complains about the brownies😂

I can't even express how much this film meant to me growing up and still does.

“He can’t come out until he resembles the man I married!” “Oh Carrol, we don’t have that kinda time” 🤣🤣🤣

I feel like the score is often an afterthought in comedies. Not only is this movie incredibly funny, but it has an absolutely dynamite score. I think it elevates this movie to one of the greatest of all time, as a total package.

The Burbs is one of the greatest/funniest movies of all time. From the score to the cast, just a 10/10 all around.

Thank god he mentions the push in on the dog. When I first saw it I thought is was one of the funniest things ever. No one else I knows even gave it a second thought. Also Rick's reaction to Hanks crushing the cans was gold. Man, I loved Rick Ducommun.

Can we take a moment and appreciate Jerry Goldsmith's score? A more perfect marriage of music and imagery there never was. This score sends this movie soaring to unexplored comedic frontiers. Because of the music, the jokes land like bunker busting bombs. For my money it's Goldsmith's finest work of his already stellar career.

“Hey Pinocchio, where do you think you’re goin’?!?” 😂

The Burbs is such a classic. Bruce Dern so was great in it. When he's the Klopeck's house asking questions and peeling the wallpaper off the wall.

This movie is beyond classic. It's a comedy institution. An American icon.

Idk if he brings it up in this video but the line “There goes the goddamn brownies” made me cry the first time I watched it

Rumsfield: "Ricky! Get this lame-o out of your yard." Ricky: "Get out of my yard lame-o."

One of my all time favorite movies, it's like comfort food.

The step slide has always been the most memorable moment of the movie for me. Kills me every time

"I've never seen that. I've never seen anybody drive their garbage down to the street and bang the hell out of it with a stick. I-I've never seen that." 😂 Easily one of my all-time favorite movies. As a kid, it showed me how different movies can be. It was weird, original, and unexpected. I loved every minute of it. Still do.

The Burbs is a masterpiece it’s a movie that doesn’t get talked about ENOUGH

When Tom Hanks flicks his coffee at the paper boy 😅

I saw The Burbs in theaters, also. This was one of the first films that I loved, but everyone around me seemed to be like, "eh." I remember thinking how strange it was that others didn't enjoy it. Then, the internet came along and I rejoiced because I realized that there were plenty of "oddballs" like me out there lol.

One of my favorite movies ever. The end when Hanks throws himself in the ambulance just kills me every time I see it. I literally watch it multiple times..

Man, I miss Broad Comedy Tom Hanks. He was so incredibly good. Also, Rick Ducommun rules.

When I was a kid I had a friend named Sam who laughed so insanely hard at the part where Tom Hanks eats the anchovy and then sneezes it back up. I'll never forget how hard he laughed at that moment.

Bruce Dern's contempt for the brownies after dropping them is my favorite line. This movie is so underrated and under-seen!

The line where the brother is asked if the name Klopeck is Slovak, and the brother turns and sternly says “NO”, for some reason, that one has always stayed with me. That and Hanks, at the end when he’s been blown up, he tosses the gurney in the ambulance and throws himself on top- just make me laugh out loud thinking about it. Great movie. Neighborhoods are like that, everyone watching each other.

This movie is an underrated classic. I put it up there with the "great outdoors" as a forgotten classic, honestly, in an era full of them.

The way Brother Theodore says "ALL DAY" is one of the greatest line readings in the history of anything. And Tom Hanks gives one of his best performances because of the million little nuances in his gestures and expressions the entire film. It's an oddly dramatic performance when you look under how funny it is. The first clip I ever saw of THE 'BURBS was the trash can beatdown when it was on TV sometime in '93 or so and I laughed so goddamn hard my mom actually yelled upstairs to ask if I was alright.

such a criminally underrated movie

I guess I've taken for granted how much watching The 'Burbs on repeat growing up has influenced my sense of humor because I actually re-watched this a couple of weeks ago and I found everything in it hilarious 😆

The Burbs is without hesitation my favorite movie. I'll go all the way to 9 on the tension scale to shout it! Kills me when Ricky's friend Steve Koontz drops the Doritos and pop to start clapping at Rumsfield falling off the roof. So much i could go on for days.

So nice to see so many people hold this movie in such high regard! One of my all time favs!! It’s one of those comedy’s where the cast made it funny not the jokes. It’s not what you’re saying it’s how you’re saying it and they all nailed it.

"It's the Pizza Dude" is the line I quote every time the pizza dude arrives with my delivery

Rest in peace, Rick Ducommun, a great comedian and he's perfect in, _The 'Burbs._ Dern is phenomenal, too. He'd been in some wack films in the 80s, but he's always riveting, fuck me, he should have won the Oscar for, _Coming Home_ that is a DEVASTATING performance, so sad.

I have a summer birthday, so sleepover birthday parties were my go to. There was a formula to them, from age 7 to 13, we’d go to a movie in the theater, see something like Congo or Ace Ventura When Nature Calls. But, the highlight every year was when we got back, the pizza would show up, and we’d put in the recorded from HBO VHS copy of The ‘Burbs. We watched it every year and we loved it. We use to quote it as we watched it, not a summer would go by without a room full of my friends yelling “Yo Rumsfield” in sync with Corey Feldman before Bruce Dern fell off his room. This movie was a huge part of my childhood and there is an instant connection with anyone once I find out that they’re also a fan of it.

One of those movies that we just had on all the time growing up. The score, the feel, the comedy; everything about it so great ❤

One of my favorites as well. Amazing how Bill calls out all the same spots I loved. We used to quote “9 on the tension scale Rube” all the time.

My husband and I have watched this movie together at least once a year(usually on Memorial Day or Labor Day weekend) for the past 15 years! It’s the best!

I have always called the 'burbs a guilty pleasure...but it's more than that.

Underrated comedy.

That slide down the steps was truly brilliant. Also, how bout the scene where the kid says the picture came with the frame. That part gets me everytime.

My dad had great taste in humour, and he loved this movie (as do I). Any time he happened to see it on TV, he'd usually drop what he was doing and watch it. Good memories.

I remember when I was a little kid, I loved the universal studios tour because they took you to the street where The Burbs was filmed. All time great movie 🎥

I'm just glad someone is giving theBurbs the credit it deserves

I put up the big projector screen every September outside for the neighborhood. "The Burbs" always leads off the year.

My high-school girlfriend and I loved this movie (1992'ish- 94), it was our absolute favorite. We watched it hundreds of times. Everyone in it is just magnificent. My most favorite part that we would cry laughing at was when Art was in the basement with the occult books saying, "ray you're chanting... i want to kill Everyone Satan is good Satan is my pal". I still say that all the time haha. It's so good.

The 'Burbs is classic. The nuances and inflections on the dialogue are the make or break on whether you like it or not. And, going along with absurdity of it all. A top 10 comedy for me.

Absolutely love The Burbs! Such an underrated flick!

One of the great movies of the '80s... and absolute classic!

It's wonderful to hear one of my favorite actors talk like this about a movie I love. I have an original poster that I've been collecting signatures on for years. Hanks, Fischer, Joe Dante, Dern, Feldman, Picardo, Dick Miller, and Courtney Gains. The kid next-door's a meatball.

That tension scale line is one of those lines that is always in the back of my mind. This movie is up there with animal house and Lebowski for me

When we were kids, my dad rented a vcr and a couple movies, including the Burbs. My sister and I laughed our asses off the entire time. When the movie was over, we literally rewound it and watched it again. Total classic. Those were the days.

10/10 Easily, one of the best movies ever. Growing up in the 80's my whole family knew this movie by heart, now my 6 year old knows every line. As a father, you have to teach them the important things in life!

This one brought all the kids in from outside for 90 minutes whenever it popped on during the weekend

Incredibly charming movie.

That Bill Hader and John Mulaney like The 'Burbs just makes my day, we love this movie so much.

I added The Burbs to my DVD collection recently. It’s definitely up there at the top with my all-time favorite movies.

This is in my top 5. I remember watching this as a kid in the early 90s. What a great movie. Walter!!!

The 'Burbs is one of my favorite feel-good movies, just the visuals alone puts me in a good mood. This movie screams better times.

The scene where Tom Hanks slides down the steps is so ingrained in my mind that I regularly have dreams I slide down whole flights of stairs, but it's not a big deal, it's just how I do it. It wasn't until I was talking to someone about our dreams that I realized I had never actually done it in real life, but I had done it so often in my dreams that it seemed like I had.

“But you can’t fool me” was a huge quote in my family growing up. My dad had the best taste in comedies

I have a really long driveway and i drive my garbage to the curb when i leave for work, every single time i do it i think of this movie :)

Third favorite film of all time. First favorite film score. 😊

The 'Burbs is epic....loved it from day one....but still obscure enough that only die hards are into it. When ever one of my friends (who is also a fan) and I see each other somewhere, it's always a flurry of 'Burbs quotes....much to a sea of blank stares from everyone else. "Satan is good, Satan is our pal..."

One of my all time favorites...so so so funny! Bruce Dean as Rumsfeld is hilarious.

My favorite movie of all time since I rented it for the first time on VHS in 1990. I must have watched that thing100+ times over the years.Know every line in the movie and still love it every time I re-watch it

Omg. This just proved to me that I’d be bffs with Bill Hader and Mulaney. These are my exact memories of what I LOVED about this movie as a kid. I watched it over and over and it never got old. This video is amazing. Thank you!!!

Seen it about 100 times . I can say the script before it happens. Such a classic underrated movie

I've seen this movie at least a dozen times and these scenes still crack me up.

I will listen to Hader talk about movies any day of the week! I love his descriptions and backstory to his love and fondness for film and TV and how he articulates his opinions

Some of the best nights of my life were as a kid in the 90's and finding out The Burbs was on TV. Absolute timeless masterpiece.

I love the Burbs. I still watch it once or twice a year. I always usually watch it to kick off the summer. It's definitely not for everyone but those who love it really love it. I also grew up in a suburban cul-de-sac neighborhood kind of like the movie where everyone knew and watched everyone else and we had a weird family on the block who never talked to anybody and barely kept up with their yard. So they were our version of the Klopeks except they turned out to be law obeying citizens(as far as we know) just weird and anti social. Lol Everyone is so perfect in their roles. It is a perfect lazy day hangout movie with comedy and mystery and suspense. They just don't make movies like this anymore that are just silly and fun and quotable.

YES an underappreciated masterpiece, we recorded this on VHS off TV and must've watched it 50 times as kids, one of our family classics, perfect!

10/10 one of my top 10 favs. Hanks and Dern steal the show but every actor plays it perfectly

I miss movies like this. Soooo many great movies from the 80's-90's.

always looking for this stream....love it!!

Absolutely one of my favourite movies. I love the setting, the humour. It really feels fleshed out, and it transports you into that universe.

My fav comedy of all time.

I love that Bill loves this

Saw it in the theater with my mom. Back in the day when the only way to see new movies was in the theater. And you would go to school on Monday and talk about it with all your friends who happened to go and do the same thing with their family. And if they didn’t catch it that first opening weekend then they probably went the following weekend because everyone was talking about it. Man.....how times have changed.

This made my day, one of my favorite people talking about one of my favorite movies, thank you

When I watched the burbs as a boy I had to go and tell everyone about it for days. So good. Dante is one of the best

I remember watching this movie on TV as a special, but didn't know the name. I thought it was the best thing ever, and I scoured the shelves at Blockbuster numerous times looking for it. When I finally found it, I showed my dad and he rented it for us to watch. He was laughing so hard, even at jokes I never picked up on. It's one of my all times favs, up there with Ghostbusters 1.

Garbage drivers scene is very memorable. Great film!

This movie is abosolute perfection! Love these recollections

I could listen to Bill Hader talk all day about films

at least Bill Hader likes this movie. I've always loved it.

My god, all the things b hader is picking up on are my favourite scenes as well. I’ve always loved this film. So underrated

Thank you for this. Too many notable quotables from this movie. My fav: "There go the goddamn brownies."

At boarding school in England in 90s the guys in my dorm watched this film obsessively to the point we could sit quoting it all the way through…and still every time you’d notice something new

One of my favorite movies as a kid (and still). To this day I keep running into people who have never seen this movie and it blows my mind.

The music and sound design in this movie is just great. Bruce Dern’s heavy metal intro, the overall theme of the movie, the sneezing sound of Tom Hanks, Tom at the breakfast table waving his arms around matching the cartoon sounds on the TV in the background, etc. just awesome detailed stuff you don’t see anymore. Everyone in the movie plays it with an intensity and seriousness that is perfectly juxtaposed to the silliness of the situations. My favorite line is the super loud “NO!” that Reuben Klopek says to Rumsfeld in the brownie scene 😂. “It came vith de frrrame”. “Hans. Christian Anderson; what are ya catholic?” So many hilarious things. The movie is still one of my favorites. The whole score is on RU-vid, it’s definitely worth a listen

Absolute classic movie for my family! Love it! Been quoting it forever!
