Verdict: The Strangers

This is the first scary/horror film that I have seen in theaters in a long time but I was surely not disappointed . The Strangers was an awesome scary movie, a movie sure to make you cringe. Starting off, the story is very straight forward, a couple goes to a remote, deserted house and are preyed on by three psychos in masks, so don't go expecting an elaborate story. But with a movie like this the real meat is not in the story but its scare tactics. From the beginning of the movie pretty much to the end, the movie is covered in silence, which creates this nerving atmosphere of anticipation and fright. The two main characters do a great job of showing their emotions and you can't help but feel for them in their time of desperation. Another thing to take note of in this movie is all of its sounds. Since there is so much silence within the movie, every little sound will make you jump, creaking doors, fire, footstep, and even an eerie sounding record player. Overall this is a great movie to go see if you and your girl (or boy) are looking for a suspenseful night or you just happen to be a horror fan. (4/5 *'s) (._.)
