I think the way that family and everybody else was in that neighborhood in the movie was just freaky and dysfunctional! Who else thinks so?!

It's a perfect example of a typical suburb. I guarantee yours is just as weird, but I think Lester put it best:

People who don't act so WEIRD FREAKY and STRANGE like they did in that movie!
Be specific with examples of what you mean. Just curious.
