He was so great at horror. It's a great shame he didn't do more. Also no one mentions the fact that he was the first director as far as I know that used proper cgi effects in innerspace.

It also directed for "Looney Tunes: Back in Action" (2003)!

I may be in a minority here, but I think The Burbs is one of the only movies that REALLY matters...I mean Carrie Fisher is the mom--who wouldn't want that? Love that movie!

They're daring each other to ring the doorbell...
