Squatters is a 2014 American direct-to-video independent drama film directed by Martin Weisz and starring Gabriella Wilde, Thomas Dekker, Richard Dreyfuss, and Luke Grimes.

Premise
Two runway foster kids, Jonas and Kelly, raised as siblings live homeless in Venice Beach and begin squatting in a mansion in the Pacific Palisades when Jonas overhears Evelyn revealing door access codes to a nanny before leaving on vacation. They take advantage of the situation, trying to sell items to British gangster Ronald but have to bolt when the homeowners return from vacation early. Kelly begins a relationship with the unsuspecting couple's son, Michael, who she meets by chance in an Americana theater that screens looping Charlie Chaplin films. Michael and his parents are guilt stricken over the loss of the daughter, Stephanie who died from a drug overdose, and they allow Kelly into the house, fostering the relationship oblivious that she's the original intruder. Ronald threatens Jonas' life over failure to deliver a promised vehicle so he visits the house, confronts Michael's father for the keys and takes Kelly away to Ronald's house, where Kelly calls the police clandestinely. When police arrive, they engage Ronald and an accomplice in a firefight; both are fatally shot, but not before Ronald brutally beats Kelly. Kelly then goes to jail and Michael later welcomes her back.
