It goes from a stranger knocking on the door late at night disturbing a not-so-happy couple, to three strangers (inevitably) hunting this couple down. We've probably all feared experiencing a break in while in the house, some crazed serial killer coming in to kill us right where we are supposed to feel the safest. This slasher distinguishes itself with it's premise. In the RT consensus you may have read the following: "The Strangers provides a few scares, but offers little else to distinguish itself from other slasher films." and while I have a few critiques of this film myself which keep it from being better, I do not agree with this consensus. And then real danger does show up - in the form of three masked torturers, leaving Kristen and James struggling for survival.Ī good, suspenseful, horror film. When he returns, he accidentally kills his friend Mike (Glenn Howerton), mistaking him for an intruder. First, a mysterious and dangerous woman arrives at the door while James is out on an errand. Kristen (Liv Tyler) and James (Scott Speedman) are expecting a relaxing weekend at a family vacation home, but their stay turns out to be anything but peaceful.
