The Strangers: Chapter 1
Tamara ain’t here because she already saw this movie
The Strangers Series Episode 3
Action specialist Renny Harlin (Die Hard 2) returns to his Elm Street roots to reconfigure the 2008 home invasion classic The Strangers into an epic slasher trilogy. Chapter 1 finds Madelaine Petsch far from Riverdale as her roadtrip with a long-time boyfriend breaks down in small-town Oregon. Is it random that Dollface, Scarecrow, and Pin-Up Girl are suddenly attacking their backwoods Airbnb? Or do the roots and motivations of the masked trio directly tie to this rural religious community? Donate Today and find out now!
