It looks like the owner of the rights to Rear Window is taking the makers of Disturbia to court for using Rear Window’s storyline without paying for it.

To be fair though they were quite different in at least one way; Rear Window was one of the Greatest murder mysteries ever whereas Disturbia probably deserves to be taken to court anyway for crimes against film.
