You'll fear your neighbor.

In Ogden Marsh, a small Iowa town that claims to be the friendliest place on Earth, crime is almost nonexistent. David Dutton, its sheriff, spends his afternoons without any trouble and works to keep the community calm. One day, during a baseball game at the school, a neighbor appears on the field carrying a shotgun and acting strangely. David approaches slowly, intending to calm him down and keep the situation from getting worse. Directed by Breck Eisner and starring Timothy Olyphant, the film begins with an ordinary man trying to keep the peace in his community.

Trivia about The Crazies

Brad Anderson was originally hired to direct the film, but he left the project over creative differences with the studio.

Each "Crazy" makeup design required about twenty-one pieces and more than three hours of application to achieve the final effect seen on screen.

The contact lenses completely covered the actors' eyes, and they had to put in eye drops every five minutes to prevent injuries.

The production had a budget of 20 million dollars and grossed 54.8 million at the box office.

Amy Biancolli of the San Francisco Chronicle wrote that the special effects moved from cheap fake blood to the disgusting scenes horror audiences expect.

Lynn Lowry, an actress from the 1973 film on which this version is based, appears as an infected resident who rides a bike across the town's deserted center.

"The Crazies" was nominated for 2011 People's Choice Award for Favorite Horror Movie, though it did not win.

In January 2025, Tubi added the film to its free catalog and, ten days later, reached the platform's number two spot in viewership.
