In the Oregon wilderness, a real-estate developer's new housing subdivision faces a unique group of protestors: local woodland creatures who don't want their homes disturbed.
Hoping to make enough money through an overseas employer to live comfortably, Real Estate Developer Dan Sanders manages to convince his son, Tyler, and wife, Tammy, to re-locate in a remote corner of Oregon. Tyler does seem content after he meets with lovely Amber, but Tammy is concerned about her husband when he near-hysterically claims that local creatures, including beavers, ravens, bears, fox, etc. have joined forces to sabotage his project.—rAjOo ([email protected])
Dan Sanders is land developer whose boss treats him like dirt. He made Dan move his family to Oregon to oversee a project. His son resents him for making him move there. But when his son meets a girl named Amber, he sees a ray of sunshine but she doesn't approve of what his father is doing. When Dan does something to one of the forest animals, the animals led by a raccoon decide to get back at him. And when Dan tells everyone what's happening to him they don't believe him. But his son does some research and learns that this is not first time this has happened to someone who encroaches on their territory. But Dan decides to ignore it.—[email protected]
At the start of the movie, the man in charge of phase two of Lyman Enterprises' plans for the Rocky Springs community arrives. But he soon wishes he hadn't, as the very intelligent animals that live in the woods attack him with a Rube Goldberg style contraption. It doesn't take him long to get fed up and quit.
Dan is in charge of Lyman's phase one. He and his gorgeous science teacher wife Tammy and their teenage son Tyler have left Chicago for a year, much to the boy's dismay. The family lives in a fabulous house which serves as the model home, as Frank and his crew build other houses nearby. However, Dan later finds out he is also in charge of phase two, and this will mean staying four years.
Tammy and Tyler are new at the local school. Tammy soon finds herself roped into running the Forest Festival. She doesn't like doing it, but it will help her husband's career.
Lyman arrives on a private plane at the "international" airport. There is a paved runway surrounded by grass but this place doesn't appear capable of qualifying for handling crop dusters. And the community Lyman has come to see is an hour away. To give you an idea of what he is like, Lyman gives Tyler a stuffed bear because he believes the boy is 4. When Dan tries to convince him otherwise, Lyman checks his phone and asks Dan if he is sure. Lyman also mentions having two kids himself; his beautiful assistant with the nerdy glasses says three. Also, Lyman claims his company is green, but later in the movie he describes it as "economically friendly" when the word he should have used is "ecologically". Almost nothing about the company's plans is green except for the money it will make, and possibly a few remaining trees.
Lyman is the guilty party here, along with investor Mr. Gupta who will arrive later. But the animals see Dan as the threat, and they harass him constantly. No one believes him, and everyone thinks he is crazy. He even visits a shrink.
Tyler meets pretty Amber at the school library. They end up liking each other, and it turns out Amber cares about preserving the forest, even though the townspeople only seem to care about the money coming to their area. Amber even knows about a history of animals harassing settlers over the past 11,000 years.
So will the animals succeed in stopping the development? Will Dan's family ever be happy? How about Tyler and Amber?
