"An unexpected anomaly — a sequel that both is better than and fixes the problems of its predecessor. It's a chilling and genuinely frightening horror film, driven by some solid performances and Roberts' command of atmosphere, location, and relentless pacing. " ... Read full review

"The film is a technical wonder, especially the sound design. There's also an excellent incongruity at work: Happy faces drawn in blood, viscous killers in playful masks and cheesy eighties music as the soundtrack to savagery." ... Read full review

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Perfect horror

I remember when 'The Strangers' came out in 2008. It was such a unique film, I remember feeling like I'd never seen anything like it. It certainly stuck with me long after leaving the theatre. The sequel was announced almost immediately and yet for some reason we had to wait 10 years to finally see it. So was it worth the wait? You better believe it was.

This film is nothing short of incredible. There isn't a single poor scene in the film. Each and every one of them is like a little mini masterpiece. A lot of that stems from the characters. They are perfectly created. They are flawed (thus realistic) and yet likeable and relatable at the same time. This is a crucial element to what makes this film so good, because I desperately wanted these characters to survive.

The same trio of villains are back again and they are even more menacing this time around. They are relentless in their pursuit and it has to be said that the pacing of this film can take your breathe away. There is also a jump-scare (I'm not sure it even used music, simply the visual and a line of dialogue) that is unquestionably one of the most effective I've ever seen.

Don't expect the film to play out the way you expect it to. I know it certainly didn't for me. It went to places that I never foresaw and I loved them all. The music, the camera work, the creation of tension - they all combine to produce a horror masterpiece that is even better than the already brilliant original. Please see this film.… Expand

However, the complete randomness ofEasily the best part of the movie is the music - Bonnie Tyler's Total Eclipse of the Heart is so money. However, the complete randomness of the killing is just sort of weird. Hollywood is anti-gun, yet they promote guns in this movie as the only practical solution when facing knives and axes. It's also crazy short.… Expand

The defeat the more ignominious because from the first part passed a decade and you would expect that nothing of this production after that time will not hurt - you guess... it is a disappointed production.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Es casi lo mismo de la primera película, sinceramente no vale la pena una película tan mala, o sea, se tardaron 10 años en traer esto al cine??? hubiese quedado mejor si la hubiesen estrenado directamente a video, ojalá no se les ocurra sacar una tercera parte, ya que si van a hacer de nuevo lo mismo no valdrá la pena, a menos que desarrollen aunque sea un poco, la historia de los villanos, estoy seguro que mas de alguno se pregunta ¿Quienes son? ¿Por qué se dedican a matar? ¿Serán enfermos mentales o simplemente asesinos psicópatas/en masa?… Expand
