I cannot believe a sequel is being made. This was in the news August 28, 2008:
"Rogue Pictures has given the go-ahead to a sequel to this summer's breakout horror hit, The Strangers, which will likely see Liv Tyler reprising her role of a woman terrorized by a group of masked men who enter her vacation home. Shooting's slated for early next year."
The movie received mixed reviews from fans and critics, but it made a lot of money.

When i first saw the strangers i wasn't really impressed by it.
I guess i'll still buy the dvd and give it a second chance.As far as the sequel goes-well i'll see.Hopefully its good.

I haven't seen it. I thought it looked like a pretty stupid movie.

I actually enjoyed The Strangers. I don't know about a sequel, I think it's one of those movies that stands better on its own.

Did you see it in theaters Greg? I don't think I saw an advertisement for it on t.v. so I was wondering what drew you to see it?

I first saw the trailer for it while watching another movie in the theater, can't remember which movie that was. I saw a few ads on tv for it, but not too many. There certainly wasn't much advertising involved.

I saw the Strangers, and it wasn't the best I have seen in a while. I had high expectations and thought it might be a good old slasher film, but it actually dissappointed me, but it was a steady film. It's something to get on DVD for fun. A sequel might be good, perhaps they could try topping the first one.

I am hoping the sequel is better. Unfortunately, Scott Speedman will not be in it. He was the only reason why I went to see this movie.

The sequel is scheduled to be released sometime in 2010.
I'm going to go ahead and pick up the unrated dvd of the strangers this Tuesday.Hopefully i'll be a little more satisfied with it-i remember not being to thrilled when i first saw it.Sometimes things change.
I really like the dvd cover art.
Real nice.
Heres a little something for those interested in seeing the strangers unmasked.

I never saw it, I don't remember hearing too much about it at the time so I didn't bother, but if there's a sequel coming out maybe I missed something.

I'm surprised you didn't like The Strangers XN. I thought it would be something you'd enjoy. Hopefully you'll like the unrated DVD better.

I have a feeling this film is going to end up being in my favorites.
I'll let you know how it turns out Tuesday.  |

I'm the same way with movies sometimes. I know I've told this story on CLAD before, but when I saw the original Dawn of the Dead for the first time, I was less than impressed. Now it's one of my favorite movies. I seem to like it more everytime I see it.

I have had that happen quite a few times myself. Some movies definitely get better with repeat viewings. Friday Part V is a great example of that. I love the movie now. It was only eh after the first viewing.
Then again there are movies that are exactly the opposite. I thought I loved them the first time I saw them and with the second or third viewing I start seeing all the flaws and start to dislike them. Like F vs. J.

That's a good point Kyle. I was the same way with F vs. J.

I absolutely loved the unrated dvd version of the strangers.
I can't believe how much of an asshole i was for not being impressed with the theatrical version.
I knew this sort of thing would happen-The strangers is a great Terror film.
I had a change of heart,i really like this movie now.Looking forward in seeing the sequel.I have a feeling the sequel might have a devils rejects effect,which means those 3 bastard strangers might decide to terrorize the wrong family the next time they get the urge to kill. #2n67qio# #2n67qio#

I have not seen this yet but I'm a sucker for unrated dvds so i will check it out.
Dawn of the Dead gets better with every viewing.
I also have had that happen. Loving it at the theater and then it loses it's luster after seeing again.
I think this topic deserves a thread huh?
