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# Cool. I might pick it up. I too wasnt amazed with the theatrical version, but it was not bad. If you changed your opinion so drastically like this, it MUST be good!

I guess I'm going to have to see this one after all especially if the unrated version is that good.

Hope you enjoy it the second time you see it darkness. I really think its a great terror film because this could really happen to anybody.When i first saw the film,i was comparing it too much with the Texas chainsaw massacre and that alone blinded my logic.The strangers works for me because its reality based horror,i love that.

Well like TCM it's only loosely based on truth. It was influenced by a Manson Family type killing but it's not a true story. Not a bad movie. A bit predictable though.

Don't know anything about the sequel but I finally watched this last night. I really enjoyed it. I agree with the word terror as being what kind of movie this is. I enjoyed thr characters and cared for them, the killers were badass, especially the way in which they stalked, and two times they got me on jump scares. All in all, a good movie. Check it out. 7.5/10

Well, although I never replied I did indeed pick up the unrated DVD of Strangers and I have to say it did make it much more watchable. Trying to respect your opinion, it didnt change it so drastically, but it was worth the money, trust me when I say that.
Cool to be one of The Strangers for Halloween, especially because it's not a recognizable character like Jason or Michael.

Thats cool Darkness. I think the whole film works well as a Terror film.The pinup girl mask is extremely creepy in person.

Looked good, was a little creepy but... I don't know felt a little disappointed & I know it was supposedly based on true events. Maybe the sequel will be better?
