Episode 216 — The Strangers (2008)

Day 5 of 31 Days of Halloween brings a knock at the door as Ryan joins me to talk about 2008’s The Strangers—and why it’s creepy as hell.

We get into the film’s iconic moments, the terror of someone lurking in the background, and how it makes an ordinary house feel utterly unsafe. We also talk about where things go a little off the rails in Act 3, even after such an unnerving setup.

Three masks. A knock at the door. “Because you were home.” Movie.
