I'm very disappointed with this! After hearing of it for so long and from a big Stephen King fan, I couldn't believe how poor this is! Looking very dated, thought it was an early 70's film not mid 80's! It's drawn out way too long even at 90mins. It's not scary, just weird. There was a re-make recently not to mention 7 sequels!! Hopefully they are a lot better!

An ok horror comedy, with a made for TV feel to it. It's pretty much a copy of the cult classic Fright Night, but this time with a Werewolf in place of a Vampire. This time round it's a girl (Nina Dobrev from Vampire diaries) who has to fight the new neighbour. Not a bad werewolf costume but this is far from scary and not that funny. It's not a patch on Fright Night.

While I watched the movie I liked the idea that it had kept the original theme music in the movie but at the same time, I thought it was too dramatic. I am not much for Horrors but I would say I would watch it again if the time came.
I would recommend it to my friend's and other people that are into jumping and scary movies.

Hmmm a 12 rated "Horror" film?! Yep it doesn't really work, the only scares are predictable jumpy loud noise moments and spooky imagery. It has quite a dark story behind it though, it's just unfortunate that there is a real lack of dialogue with long quiet sections of Daniel Radcliffe walking round a creepy house. The production design is excellent though which adds to the right atmosphere, just not that scary for grown ups.

One of my all time favorites, I need to watch it every Memorial Day Weekend (2 more)
The first scary movie I can remember wanting to watch over and over.
So many great quotes
DAA DA
I never get tired of watching this movie. You just need to hear the first four notes of the score and you know what was going to happen.

A pretty decent effort of a remake of the original Thai film. It compares well and the scenes are very similar, but the Thai version was more jumpy and creepy for me. Though that could be partly put down to knowing what was coming. The imagery of the ghost girl is no way as scary as the Grudge, Ring remakes. Enjoyable film well made and featuring a recognizable cast including Rachael Taylor from Transformers.

Missed opportunity
A slow burner of a horror which is more psychological creepy than really scary. It's very subtle with the scares which come about more from the atmosphere created. Unfortunately the ending felt rushed and fell flat. Also a couple of things just didn't fit in how the characters would act in certain situations.
Overall not bad, but after a slow good build up it falls apart a little at the end.

Try sleeping with the lights on
There is no way you'll want to sleep in the dark after watching this scary, unsettling movie. Expect to check the locks on your doors and windows, check behind the shower curtain, in closets, and under the bed after you watch this. Your life will be split into two distinct time periods: Before The Strangers and After.
Mwhahahaha.
Mwhahahaha.

Meh
This movie was weak all around. The acting and cinematography were so-so. The story was a decent idea that just didn't get off the ground. It could've been done sooo much better in the right hands. The movie moved far too slowly and just wasn't scary at all. If you're REALLY bored and have nothing else to watch, maybe you could waste some time with it. NOT worth a watch.
