    Was hoping I'd like this as much as the original that I just watched for the first time a few weeks ago. I did not.

    Look, "what if the original but way nastier and more 70s zooms and split diopters" is objectively good sequel material no matter what, I don't make the rules. Not much more than a formal riff on Hooper/Carpenter ultimately but I had a better time with this than the ~spooky~…

    This was one of the worst movie i have viewed in years. The actors in the movie were awful. The movie was unrealistic. When someone is shot with a shot gun that close up they would die. When a car blows up the person in the car would not survive and be able to chase someone…

The Strangers: Prey at Night, co-written by Bertino and Ben Ketai and directed by Johannes Roberts (47 Meters Down) has a slow and rather grim first half, but then, in the home stretch, takes a welcome turn into the seriously silly.

Director Johannes Roberts is clearly a fan of films such as “Christine” and “Halloween.” The production elements are first-rate, including the expansive setting that includes multiple cabins, a playground and a swimming pool.
