The Strangers (2008) the home-invasion horror that turned a simple knock at the door into pure dread. Kelli, Kristin, Leah, and Alisan break down Bryan Bertino's slow-burn nightmare: The Strangers. Masked strangers, a couple's night gone terribly wrong, and the question we can't stop asking each other — what would you actually do if someone knocked after midnight?

Part 1 is a recap of the movie The Strangers, and in Part 2 we trace the film's real-crime roots. Part Two unpacks the Tate-LaBianca murders that helped inspire the film.

We argue over IMDb's stingy 6.1 rating, have a Glenn Howerton appreciation moment, and we somehow end up talking about Blue Bell ice cream for five straight minutes.
