A retelling of Hitchcock’s 'Rear Window' for YouTubers, iPoders & cellphoners with a great cast in rising star Shia LaBeouf ('Bobby'), the imposing David Morse ('12 Monkeys', 'The Green Mile') and Carrie Ann-Moss ('Matrix', 'The Chumscrubber').
Kale (LaBeouf) is under house arrest, having punched his Spanish teacher for bringing up his father – recently deceased. Not allowed outside 30 metres from his house, Kale takes up spying out his bedroom window. Namely, on the new neighbourhood hottie Ashley (Roemer). When she catches him, she thinks its ‘hot’, and joins him in the stakeouts. Things turn deadly serious though, when they see dodgy goings on and suspect a neighbour (Morse) of murder.

"Squirmingly fun suspenser that brings Alfred Hitchcock's "Rear Window" into the era of vidcams and cell phones, serving up hearty, youth-skewing portions of PG-13 violence and bikini-bait along the way..."
