Because you were home. The Strangers is a 2008 American psychological horror film written and directed by Bryan Bertino. The film follows a couple (portrayed by Liv Tyler and Scott Speedman) whose stay at a vacation home is disrupted by three masked intruders (portrayed by Kip Weeks, Gemma Ward, and Laura Margolis) who infiltrate the home one night. It is the first installment in The Strangers film series. The screenplay was inspired by two real-life events: the multiple-homicide Manson family Tate murders and a series of break-ins that occurred in Bertino's neighborhood as a child. Some journalists noted similarities between the film and the Keddie cabin murders that occurred in Keddie, California, in 1981, though Bertino did not cite this as a reference. 00:00 Intro 17:18 Horror News 28:59 What We've Been Watching 46:17 Film Review 2:05:12 Name Game 2:09:37 Film Rating 2:13:56 Outro Podcast - https://podlink.to/horrorhangout​​​ Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/horrorhangout Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/horrorhangoutpodcast Twitter - https://twitter.com/horror_hangout_ TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@horrorhangoutpodcast Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/horrorhangoutpodcast/ Website - http://www.hawkandcleaver.com​​​ Ben - https://twitter.com/ben_errington​​​ Andy - https://twitter.com/AndyCTWrites Lucy - https://twitter.com/lucyjadebuglass Audio credit - Taj Easton http://tajeaston.com Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/thehorrorhangout.
