Sorry, I didn't understand if you meant critics or fans ::shocked::

I thought The Strangers was a great movie, and I was really scared by it, but it wasn't perfect. The skeptical boyfriend character in every movie is always aggravating, and the intruders seemed to warp around the house at will. I really liked it because it was effective, even if it's a little unrealistic.

Horcrux, we actually agree!! I also enjoyed The Strangers. I liked the suspense of it and how the intruders were basically a deranged family.

"Why are you doing this?"
"Because you were home."

Don't understand the love for this either...just found it bland. And home invasion stuff DOES scare me, especially in HENRY;PORTRAIT OF A SERIAL KILLER.

Henry was wicked, and real which makes it even more crazy. But that's realistic home invasion. The Strangers was just predictable and bland like you said.
