Uh ya, I'm definitely going to get nightmares.

it looks like three regular people with masks on just scaring people. It doesn't look horrifying. Um...why are they scaring the couple btw?
Misao
o.o the mask looks so scary!!
butterflyeffect
LOL those people with masks look funny.
I'm not even gonna waste my time with this movie.

The release date got pushed back to August, actually. I'm pretty sure. I actually might want to see this. I want to know their motivation.

Anyone else think of the Manson murders for some reason?

I hear Gemma Ward is one of the masked strangers

" Why are you doing this "
" Because you were home "

Those line for some reason gave me a cold chill when I saw the preview.
The movie itself doesn't seem all that scary. I'm more creeped out by them standing behind people while they don't noticed haha

I saw this preview like late last year and I must say it looks terrifying,
one of the scariest looking movies I've seen in a while.
Definitely going to see if it is as scary as I think it is.
Well maybe it was the format in which they showed it,
buttt it grabbed my attention.

I just saw this trailer the other day and I was like WTF because I didn't notice them wearing masks since I just thought they were ghosts or something.

LMFAO i saw the trailer,
the masks don`t really look scary,
especially the one in the middle of the first picture.
iwanabiggal0lly
OOOh can't wait! I like horror movies. The mask in the middle of the poster doesnt look scary at all.

funny games was a horrible movie in my opinion.

anyways i saw the previews for this for the ruins.
i got nightmares just from the previews.
chocopocky
So it's like Scream but three times the fun?
JenniFOO
Heh, the guy in the middle has a mask that kind of reminds me of the sandman in Batman haha
This movie looks interesting, but I doubt I'd go watch it lol I love checking out horror movies but having to actually WATCH it is something that I don't do too often lol
I suck -__-;;
marmar
i most likely will end up watching this when it comes to dvd.
i see it's based on true events..kinda freaky. makes me want to watch it some more but not worth my 10 bucks to watch.
EUNSHIHAE
oooooOOo interesting. maybe i'll go see this
since Live Tyler and Scott Speedman are both in here!!
NO NAME?
I this preview when I watched The Ruins. I actually want to see this. My cousin was shouting Jabbawockeez when he saw the people with the masks on. Haha!
x SaRaNg HaE x
When I was watching Shutter, The Strangers preview came on before the movie started and scared the crap outta me more than Shutter did. -____-

I think this movie look quiet interesting.. it's only freaky to me cause i am thinking what if this happen to me.
WhenLifeGivesYouLemons
holy flip id be scared sheetless! O_________O
i love how gemma's in this <3
Koii
It looks pretty scary, or at least, suspensful.
I remember when i first saw the commercial in the theatres, and it left me like this: O^O

But now that i see the commercials more and more, the less i feel about it. It'll probably end up just like any other american horror movie =_=
THiS ONE LOSER
The masks.. are pretty creepy to look at. I hope it turns out better than most thrillers.
del32
I love shasher movies! I wonder if it's gonna be a gory one dry.gif

bonbons
I'm def seeing this one XD but the ending is pretty predictable o-O (from what i've read and seen so far)
lol and gemma ward is one of the killers whahaha
bashful_harmony
I heard the couple die in the end.. lols That the three masked murderers tied the couple onto a chair and they take turns stabbing them o.o'
jyal24
oo! looks scary..

a movie definitely not for the faint-hearted like me!
HERMIT
Saw this film. It was only okay - it had a few jumpy moments. But it might be pretty blah for most horror-gore enthusiast. It's more along the suspenseful lines of "When A Stranger Calls" or "Vacancy" than say a "Hostel" or "Saw".
With that said, it isn't scary in the conventional sense. It was just suspensefully tense and creepy in that it had that realistic feel where it could happen anywhere in middle America - and it also had that macabre and disturbing end to the story.
Once you leave the theater, the movie won't leave you with any lasting effects - unless you're one of those people that happen to live in isolated homes in large, wooded properties where your nearest neighbor is probably a half mile away.

that makes me want to watch this lol
id love to see her act


i think the masks are kind of cute tbh. but idk, im not fond of horror movies
HERMIT
^
Not sure this is the movie to watch her in if you're going by that criteria.

There's really not that much "acting" if you ask me. Just a bunch of standing around and looking creepy and menacing LOL.
BlackCrystalRose
Lol, the masks look funny... I'll watch it when I have a chance to =P
Classic Example
I heard it was terrifying. I hope I watch it with a good audience.
Misao
i just watch it today. just to tell you guys.. BAD MOVIE!! I REPEAT BAD MOVIE!! the ending was weak. i literally went wtf??? after i watch the movie. -__-
chocopocky
Man, this movie sucked. I'm so mad at it. I liked some of the effects but overall, the plot sucked. Don't freaking waste your money on this bull.
mandapanda
Okay, my cousin was like this movie is madd goood.I got scared like 500 times! I was like really I wanna watch and then I went to watch with him and my family today & I thought it was OKAY. lol I thought he exagerated cause its nothing scary just like those shook moments lol btw I thought it was kinda funny too cause you know the masks, the main girl's omg face LOL our theatre was pretty crowded so there was laughter haha
fatcat
i went to this movie on Friday night, it was a last so but the whole room is packed.

I was freaking out while watching it but honestly this movie is not even worth "Borrowing" level. The plot sucked and i don't get the story (in a bad way)

Though i was screaming the most that night, i have to say that don't ever think of going to this movie. I wasted my money on this "c.r.a.p"

I should have stick with the cheesy movie that day"SATC" LOL
