The Strangers: Chapter 1

ngl there were so many chances for them to live
like ryan could’ve actually driven off
maya couldve called the police when she first saw the mask
ryan could’ve shot the girl instead of trying to reason with her

but the hospital scene… can’t wait for the next one 😭

felt slow and ryan was lowkey a lil bitch. haven’t seen the original but don’t think i would after this. predictable at times but not a dislike bc it still creeped me out, as a horror movie should; the masks 🥴

They marketed this as a prequel but you can’t convince me this isn’t a remake. All plot points from the original were recycled. Their skills somehow were even more honed despite this being how “they became the strangers”. Did jolt me a couple times but they’re still chasing 2008.

eh, kinda boring. not a lot of suspense.

So boring, they made the worse decisions, and didn’t even try. I couldn’t even get through the whole thing I was like why would he leave her for several hours in an unknown town with creepy residents in the beginning and it only got worse.

I’m assuming the lack of gusto was because two sequels were planned giving it a pass from perfection… cool additional scene after credits began…
