the strangers

sweet mother of god.

this movie is fucking scary. absolutely motherfucking scary.
i love a good thriller/horror so i thought this movie was great. the suspense definitely outweighed the shock and fright which i find a positive in scary films.

what made the suspense worse was that this movie had very little audio/soundtrack. scary moments were rarely preceded by an orchestral buildup then accompanied with high frequency violin rape. the only music that does play is some freaky joanna newsom song on loop. most of it is just silence.... then more silence... then shit your pants... then BAM.. then where did they go?

watch this in a dark room in a quiet place, with a bucket.
