The thing that puts this film above most other horror is its constant suffocating feel. The plot was basically nonsense (the par for most horror) however the dialogue was pretty good. Example, one of the victims is tied up as a masked killer advances with a knife and she screams, "Why, why are you doing this??" The killer only responds with, "Because you were home..."

The movie is about a young couple takes a vacation to a remote location where they are terrorized by strangers. Remember how John Carpenter's Halloween was so scary and so chilling to watch, That movie had good characters and it was so creepy, but the Strangers was really slow and really boring and not scary at all.

This movie is creepy to say the least. Young beautiful Liv and her bo go on a romantic getaway where a family of psycho killers stalk them and terrorize them. The movie makes you suspicious of your own surroundings as the director filled the movie with effects that make it seem even more frighting. Definitely one to watch with your mate in your arms..

This film was actually more scary than most of the movies I've seen in the last several years. It was like an unsolved mystery from start to finish. Maybe there's something about scary masks and completely random killings that just sets of that little adrenaline rush you get from watching a horror film. I didn't think this film would be scary, but I'm glad it proved me wrong. It was truly exciting and one you can watch again and again.

I'm divided about this film, because I found it soulless and nihilistic. At the same time, it is well-made and effective in creating the atmosphere of silent terror it works hard to generate. Probably better for true horror film lovers.

I can honestly say that there were a few scenes in this film that creeped me out a little bit.

A boring mess of a home-invasion film. Only one creepy moment.

Although not as good as the French film it was based off, it was still a decent thriller. The only thing that kept it from truly making the grade was the lack of character development and too many cheap scares. Still worth a watch.

Trailer looked good, but that was about it. I grew bored pretty fast, mainly because all the scares are telegraphed too well and everything is extremely predictable. In the end, I fast forwarded the final few chapters to the end because I grew pretty tired of the stupid characters making the same dumb horror movie cliches.
