The Strangers - 6/10
If it weren't for overall strong acting and great direction, I'd probably give this a 4/10. It's a painfully average, predictable film with a few minute surprises that act as novelties in a terribly lazy screenplay. It just didn't amount to a hill of beans, but I give it extra props for a good first time director and a few alright jump scares (which made up the entire movie, by the way). I don't recommend this movie, unless you can get in for free like I did.
