Horror The Strangers

[Heretic]

I also dont see the suspense.

"Im going to kill you"

"You are?? I have a gun and you dont"

" and dont forget youre completely protected and I have to somehow find a way in to get to you..."

"Yeah, Im pretty safe in here"

Oh, the suspense...

Oh, the suspense...

Im really not gonna argue it. I enjoyed the movie and you are entitled not to enjoy it.

They should have sat in front of the door and waited with the gun.

 

[byte19]

wow.... this is why i go to horror movies by myself....

 

[Voorhees]

This movie is one of my favorite horror movies of all time thus far....it was well done and it had more suspense because it was only based on two people, which means you're least likely to know when the scares are going to happen. I really hope the sequel doesn't delve too much from the magic that this movie created.

Btw, I find it funny how on Wikipedia it says critics believe this movie fell prey to the same formula from other slasher films, yet this wasn't a slasher movie. Yes, it was a horror movie but far from a slasher movie.

 

[The Apocalypse]

Finally got to see this movie thanks to Showtime, or Cinamax..whatever one. It was good for a horror film but I still prefer Funny Games. That was disturbing.

 

[Balthus Dire]

I thought this movie had a great concept, but fell short in the execution.

 

[Jager X]

I found this movie to be one terrible mess of a film. This had no suspense whatsoever and annoying cheap scare tactics. And Liv Tyler drove me crazy with the horribly bad screaming she did. I felt like I was watching an episode of Scream Queens.

 

[The Apatow Crew]

Its funny how everyone is coming in here now to bash this film, after its been out well over a year.

Pretty much how I felt. It was good, with some creepy moments, but Funny Games is a seriously horrifying movie.

 

[Dark Victory]

I'm one of the few who liked this. Saw this in th theater and it earned my $8.50

 

[xwolverine2]

I thought this movie had a great concept, but fell short in the execution.

i agree... it had plenty of possible moments for complete suspense and scares.. and did nothing with it

 

[Space Moose]

It wasn't prefect, but a step in the right direction. And yeah, Funny Games was mesed up.

I love The Strangers, it had the old school cult horrors
and i cant wait for the sequel

I found Funny Games to be a much better and more disturbing movie than The Strangers. If anyone were as stupid as the victims in the Strangers then they deserve to die.

 

[Ion Kenshin]

I have yet to see funny games

 

[jebhdb]

If you liked the Strangers at all I would definitely recommend checking out Funny Games. They are similar in alot of ways, but I found the actions of the victims in Funny Games to be much more believable. The characters in Funny Games often break the fourth wall in the movie which could be off putting for some, but if you liked the Strangers I think you would like Funny Games.

 

[xwolverine2]

I have yet to see funny games

dont bother...

 

[Kane52630]

ive seen funny games, but i would rather see Strangers again, sorry

lol yea im surprised this thread is still around for such a forgetteable horror film

 

[rnewbz]

proving its memorable

 

[The Dark Defender]

Funny Games was great, the performances alone make it worth seeing; I think I slightly prefer it to this film, but they're pretty close.

 

[Jennifer Walters]

Funny Game's breaking the fourth wall made me turn it off. That destroyed all chances of it being horrifying.

 

[Maximus One]

Im watching Funny Games right now on Max and WOW! This movie is soooo much better than The Stragers. Strangers sucked for real didnt like it at all but hey to each his own
