Review: ‘The Strangers’

I just checked out the new flick “The Strangers”. This will give you new perspective about living in the country! The story, which is inspired by actual events, takes place in rural Wisconsin. The story Has James Hoyt (Scott Speedman) taking his girlfriend/fiance’ Kristen (Liv Tyler) to his family’s summer home following a wedding reception. Shortly after they arrive a knock comes at the door with a girl looking for “tamara”. This is where the “fun” starts!

Three masked figures then begin to appear everywhere thoughout the house and yard. They go unnoticed at first just leaving little clues to their presence. It’s kinda like the Keebler elves..FROM HELL! Once they are visible to the couple they begin to terroize the couple throughout the night!

This movie will creep you out and possibly encourage a trip to Home Depot for new deadbolt locks. “The Strangers” is not the typical Jason/Freddy/Pinhead slasher film that has the scream queen and jock doing everything that the typical victim would do. This one is fresh because they don’t open the door to the evil or walk down the wrong stairwell. It’s loaded with scenes that will have you jumping out of your seat ,and if your like fellow editor Scott, you’ll be crying for you mama(Scotts Note:..its true)!

The best line summed up the creepfest …Kristen says “Why are you doing this?!” masked intruder #1 replies…”Because you were home.”

WOW!
