Unproduced. Unofficial. Unforgettably petty.
As one commenter put it: “We don’t need real wars. We have HOAs.” If you enjoy sharp satire, cringe-comedy, and suburban absurdism, the “Neighborhood War New Script 2022” is absolutely worth tracking down. It’s not a masterpiece, but it’s a time capsule of a very specific, very frayed American moment—when the greatest threat to domestic peace wasn’t foreign conflict, but the family next door with the unapproved garden gnome collection.
★★★★☆ (4/5 – loses one star for the unresolved subplot involving a stolen recycling bin). Have you read the “Neighborhood War” script? Share your thoughts below, or better yet—try not to start a war with your neighbor over it.
“It’s a raccoon-proof bin, Linda. The raccoons declared war first.”
