Directed by: Bryan Bertino
Starring: Liv Tyler, Scott Speedman, Gemma Ward
Running time: 85 minutes
Kristen McKay and James Hoyt are driving to the Hoyt summer home
after attending a wedding. This was supposed to be a romantic getaway after
James proposed to Kristen, but she turned him down and they are both trying to
cope with what comes next. Later that evening, James and Kristen realize that a
group of strangers have decided to terrorize them, with clear intentions of
infiltrating the house.
Inspired by a few true crime stories, this filmmaker does a good job building tension throughout. Unfortunately, it all fizzles in the end, leaving the viewer disappointed. The acting was decent, and there were some genuinely scary moments, but The Strangers failed to deliver the right punch out.
