Stars: Christina Hendricks, Martin Henderson, Bailee Madison, Lewis Pullman, Emma Bellomy, Damian Maffei, Lea Enslin | Written by Bryan Bertino, Ben Ketai | Directed by Johannes Roberts
Loosely inspired by the Manson Family murders (that’s what it means when it says “Based on a true story”), creepy slasher flick The Strangers became a hit back in 2008, with its tale of three masked, mostly silent figures terrorising Liv Tyler and husband Scott Speedman. That film made $82m from a $9m budget, so it’s somewhat surprising that it’s taken ten years to get the inevitable sequel off the ground. Still, here it is, and while it doesn’t exactly improve on its predecessor, it’s still a perfectly serviceable slasher movie that does exactly what you expect, with a modicum of style to boot.

Dollface, Pin-up Girl and the Man in the Mask.
On paper, they sound like the worst superhero team in the history of superhero teams, but don’t let the frivolous nicknames fool you; together, The Strangers form the deadliest lineup in the land, and Bloody Disgusting had today revealed an exclusive close-up of Dollface.
Emma Bellomy has been cast in the role for The Strangers: Prey at Night, Johannes Roberts’ (47 Meters Down) horror sequel 10 years in the making. She’ll be flanked by The Walking Dead‘s Lea Enslin and Damian Maffei (Christmas with the Dead, Ghost Lake), who have agreed to play Pin-up Girl and the Man in the Mask, respectively, Prey at Night‘s other two psychopaths.
And make no mistake, they really are psychopaths. With only six weeks to go until release, and after Thursday’s horror showcase, Bloody Disgusting has doubled down on Pin-up Girl, who...

It’s official: The Strangers: Prey at Night has received an R-rating this week from the MPAA for “horror violence and terror throughout, and for language.” Not that this should surprise anyone, mind you, given the content of the film and the fact that the original was also rated R, but it is nice to hear nonetheless. After all, in an age where so many horror movies are watered down for mass consumption, it’s exciting to see that they won’t be holding back here.
Set for a release on March 9th, this new effort will act as a soft reboot for the series, given that it’s made room for Christina Hendricks, Bailee Madison, Lewis Pullman and Martin Henderson, who play a family on a road trip. Unfortunately, though, things don’t go so well for them, as three dangerous psychos – Emma Bellomy as Dollface, Lea Enslin as...

Halloween is but a distant memory now that all the major studios have released their delicious horror treats for 2017 (see: Jigsaw, Leatherface, Cult of Chucky), but if you’re still looking for more scares, don’t worry, as Aviron Pictures has another trick up its sleeve in time for the New Year.
After grabbing distribution rights to the horror sequel, one which comes courtesy of director Johannes Roberts (47 Meters Down), Aviron has today premiered a brand new photo from The Strangers: Prey At Night – which can be seen in the gallery down below along with the one from last month as well as a couple of posters. With no context given for the pic, we can only assume that Christina Hendricks is opening her door for what we presume are the titular killers.

It’s been nearly a decade since Bryan Bertino broke out with “The Strangers,” and genre fans found a new cult favorite. It has been just as long that a sequel has been brewing, but it’s finally arriving next year, and it looks like, instead of a direct continuation, it’s leaning a bit more toward a reboot.
Christina Hendricks, Bailee Madison, Lewis Pullman, Martin Henderson, Emma Bellomy, Lea Enslin, and Damian Maffei star in “Strangers: Prey At Night,” which sees terror descend upon a family who stumbles upon a deserted trailer park.

Halloween is but a distant memory now that Hollywood’s major studios have rolled out their themed horror treats for 2017 (see: Jigsaw, Leatherface, Cult of Chucky), but don’t fret; Aviron Pictures has another trick up its sleeve in time for the New Year.
After landing distribution rights to the cult horror sequel, one which is coming by way of Johannes Roberts (47 Meters Down), Aviron has today premiered the blood-curdling first teaser for The Strangers: Prey At Night.
Set against a slowed and downright haunting version of “I Think We’re Alone Now,” this footage dials the tension up to 11, as a group of masked loons preys on an unsuspecting family soon after their road trip takes a dangerous turn. And so, after some bickering over their current predicament, things go from bad to worse, and it isn’t long before Dollface, Pin-Up Girl and the Man in the Mask begin their cruel mind games.
