In the seemingly idyllic suburban enclave of Brookfield Oaks, a tight-knit community prides itself on safety and camaraderie—until the night the Neighborhood Watch makes a horrifying discovery. What starts as a routine patrol by a group of well-meaning volunteers quickly spirals into a nightmare when they uncover a dark secret lurking beneath their picture-perfect streets.
Led by Mitch (Seth Rogen), a well-intentioned but bumbling family man, and the intense, rule-obsessed Trevor (Billy Magnussen), the Neighborhood Watch team stumbles upon evidence of a sinister cult operating in their town. As they dig deeper, they realize their neighbors—people they’ve known for years—might be hiding something far more terrifying than petty crime.
When one of their own goes missing, paranoia spreads like wildfire. Trust erodes, alliances shift, and the once-friendly block transforms into a battleground. With no help from the outside and time running out, Mitch and the remaining members must uncover the truth before they become the next victims.
