About this listen

Renny Harlin's The Strangers: Chapter 1 is presented as the initial installment of a new standalone horror film trilogy, serving as an expansion of the 2008 original. The plot details a couple, Maya and Ryan, whose road trip is interrupted when their car breaks down, leading them to a remote Airbnb where they are terrorized by three masked attackers. While maintaining the original's core home invasion premise and its unsettling "Because you're here" motive, this new film reportedly explores the killers' psychology more thoroughly. Critical reception has been divided, with some appreciating its suspenseful atmosphere and others finding it to be a derivative rehash, though the director aimed for a grounded, non-supernatural horror experience.
