This week we're opening the Patreon vault to discuss The Strangers: Chapter 1 (2024) in anticipation of Renny Harlin's long overdue sequel, Chapter 2 . We have a lot of thoughts about this first film, its negative reception, and how to evaluate what is really 1/3 of a single film. Plus: Rural horror, comparisons to the Fear Street trilogy and the Cabin Fever remake, groaning at inhaler drama, debates about character stupidity, our favorite jump scares, and the perils of late night fridge repair. Bonus Drinking Game: Trace sighs or Joe says "exciting" Questions? Comments? Snark?
