(10/14) After watching too many vampire movies in one week, I needed to switch things up and watch a film that would truly scare me. I needed a film that would make me yank open shower cutains for no apparent reason. A film that would creep me out enough to baricade myself into a room with a loaded shotgun.The Strangers gave me exactly what I needed! The plot was hardly worth mentioning, the acting not anything to brag about, and the originality of the film was...well...nonexistent. But what the film did get right was the suspense factor. There's nothing more creepy than 3 sociopaths in masks going on a rampage just for the heck of it. And there's just something magical about a terrified damsel in destress being stalked by a man in a full suit and a burlap sack draped over his head, all to the sound of Joanna Newsom.
