Undeniably a creepy and unsettling film. What sets it apart, and what I appreciate in a good horror movie, is its ability to tap into elements of realism. The sense of vulnerability and the feeling that something like this could happen in real life makes it all the more terrifying. It's a haunting experience that lingers long after the movie ends, and that's what makes it a standout in the horror genre.

Some weird sounds(for thriller) + non sense = this movie
+Edit: if u have a flashlight, you must show flashlight's light on cameras. (a cliche. I was turn my eyes other side 4 or 5 times and i was ready for camscares)

Oops..I just shot Marvin in the face

These types of movies aren't my favorites but I thought I would give it a shot with the sequel coming. This movie is super creepy. It does a good job of making you uneasy. Then halfway through I'm like "Hey there's Dennis from Always Sunny" and felt a little better but only for a couple of minutes. It takes too long for anything to really happen.

Watched this after Stephen King recommended it in the 2010 forward to Danse Macabre. I thought it was pretty good. Very surprised at some of the comments here how much they hated it.

Dumbest movie ever, with dumb characters and dumb execution.
And I watched the unrated version, I can't even imagine what the rated version looks like..
Waste of time.

literally nothing happened, one of the worst horror movies i’ve ever watched. A massive waste of time. It got to an an hour and ten minutes and one shocking thing had happened, that’s it.

So, just no purpose killing while banging random materials to spook the couple? Pretty pointless, but at least it was a tense watch.

overall a decent horror for its time, though there are definitely more frightening entries into the home invasion genre. mostly worth it for liv tyler's performance, and the character mike's scene, the latter of which you know what's coming but the tension is top tier regardless.

"Because you were home" is not enough of a reason. The "strangers" were not strange they were just anonymous.

The only impacting scene happens around 45 minutes in and it's a personal tragedy. An accident. It's far more horrific than anything that the "strangers" cause.

Sure, there are some creepy moments. The stranger in the sack mask lurking in the background of a wide shot within the home is effective. But really, that's about it. It's pretty light on the gore.

The ending is cruel and struck me as unmotivated and pointless. Teasing with "it will be easier next time" makes it even more frustrating. If you love or hate jump scares, there's really only one. You'll know it when you see it. And it's really dumb.

I didn't like this much. Maybe I've see too many killers-with-masks movies.

This movie is Eh at best the whole movie I was like blue bell must have paid alot of money for advertisement.

That sequence where Glenn Howerton walks slowly through the house while the Mama Tried vinyl plays, and the killer follows behind him, makes this movie worth a watch just for that. A couple of unnecessary slow sequences, but goddamn, there's some nuggets of sheer brilliance locked in this movie. A little more work on the writing would've helped, but overall, the direction and choice of music was superb. I'll be revisiting this movie just for some of the great scenes scattered throughout.

Slow burn is not aomet

Solid home-invasion movie. The antagonists are creepy, memorable and unrelenting. You have to suspend disbelief at a few moments, but otherwise it works pretty well. It's a slow burn though, so you have to be ready for that. It's the motivation of the characters though that's most effective. There's something unsettling about it all just being a random act of violence.

it's slowly slowly but creeping me.

The film features two protagonists with whom you don't really empathize. Most of the plot is made up of the characters walking around the house and freaking out over nothing (fake jump scares with increased music volume). Nothing really interesting happens until the last 30 minutes.
