The Film: Sharon Stone moves into the fabulous Sliver apartment block where she meets her neighbour William Baldwin. They shag in a lift. Other neighbours start dying, Tom Berenger turns up, UB40 sing the theme song.

The Neighbours: Not only is there a murder on the loose but you have to share space with Billy Baldwin’s slick voyeur, Zeke, who watches his neighbours via CCTV on massive screens, while rubbing his trousers (and listening to UB40).

How To Avoid: If you’re lucky enough to get a flat in such a des-res apartment you probably want to be watched all the time anyway. Don’t trust Tom Berenger though – look at the man’s face.
