What to Know

Critics Consensus

Lacking the chilling suspense of the original The Strangers and proving to be just unpleasant, this Chapter 1 closes the book on itself.

The Strangers: Chapter 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Kristy Puchko Mashable Personally, nihilistic horror hits me as more unpleasant and depressing than engagingly scary. Such bleakness bleeds out tension, making for a remake that is merciless but also exhaustingly familiar. May 29, 2024 Full Review The Strangers: Chapter 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Matt Schimkowitz AV Club The Strangers no longer looks like something that can happen to anyone, but rather something that can only happen to someone in a Strangers movie. Rated: C May 18, 2024 Full Review The Strangers: Chapter 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Adam Graham Detroit News The original was a tightly wound nail biter, full of looming dread, but this one runs on fumes: there's no tension or atmosphere, just recycled beats from the original, played like a cheap cover song. Rated: D- May 17, 2024 Full Review The Strangers: Chapter 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Mini Anthikad-Chhibber The Hindu Renny Harlin’s reimagining of Bryan Bertino’s 2008 psychological thriller is thin on scares and plot Jun 9, 2024 Full Review The Strangers: Chapter 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (5) David Nusair Reel Film Reviews ...exceedingly (and perhaps excessively) familiar territory that’s employed to periodically watchable yet progressively underwhelming effect... Rated: 2/4 Jun 7, 2024 Full Review The Strangers: Chapter 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Burt Peterson SciFiNow It smartly utilises all the tropes of a good horror but does so with an extra layer of intelligence that elevates it beyond its shlocky potential. Rated: 4/5 Jun 6, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
