reviewer

I went to see the movie, The Strangers last night starring Liv Tyler. I was told by a friend of mine that the movie wasn’t that bad. It was ok. Even though it has been a while since the movie has been out I thought I’d see it since it was still in the theatre. Yeah, it was in a dollar theatre, but it’s still a theatre. I mainly wanted to know if the couple in the commercials got killed off and I was told by my friend that they weren’t. I guess she didn’t stay until the end. I also wanted to see how they would kill off the killers.

For those that haven’t seen the movie please don’t waste your time. Please! This film left me angry and pissed off among other things. I was extrememly disappointed that Liv Tyler would play in such a horrible film. I thought that there would be no way that Liv would get killed. I was wrong.

The story began with a couple. The man asked the woman to marry him and she didn’t think she could since she felt she wasn’t ready. The man drives the two up into a remote area and calls his best friend to come get them in the morning. Don’t know why they couldn’t take the car and leave at that moment.

Then a knock comes on the door. Then a pound. It was a girl who was part of the three killers. She asked for a person that didn’t exist. Then the girl disappears. The couple looks at each other and say that was weird. Then suddenly the guy decides to go out to the store to get some cigarettes. Of course they don’t go together. Things start happening to the woman left in the house played by Liv and then the phones are cut off, her cell phone disappears, and so on and so on.

The guy returns to an extremely upset woman and acts as though she is over-reacting. Eventually their car is distroyed, the house is destroyed, they become injured trying to run away, and the best friend arrives early to only be killed by the couple. Ok. The worst is yet to come. The couple is captured and stabbed to death and for absolutely no reason. The three killers leave in the morning and you never get to see what they even looked like. There was absolutely no point to this film! I can’t say enough bad things about it. Just don’t bother renting it and don’t waste your money. The movie industry has got to come up with better horror films than allowing the innocent to continue to die as part of the entertainment. It’s not entertainment. It’s not enjoyable. It’s not creative. All it is is grose, aggravating, disappointing, and extremely annoying. I want to change everything about this film. The only thing the director succeeded in doing was make me mad! It’s not even worth posting a picture.
