I have been waiting and waiting to see this movie…Heard mixed reactions from friends and others, so again, I have to judge this one for myself. No one told me this movie was based on real events, so as soon as I read that at the movies beginning I was already on the edge because usually horror movies can’t happen…But not this time! What can be scarier than something that can happen to you at any given point…It happened to me one night in college and I was freaked out for hours, so TRUST ME..it can happen!!!
Kristen (Liv Tyler) and James (Scott Speedman) are the couple who play the main roles as just a regular couple like anyone else and they just happen to arrive at a vacation house in the woods after attending a friends wedding. It’s early in the morning and they both have had a few disagreements about themselves and their relationship and aren’t in the best of moods. The movie seems to be starting off extremely slow, but things are soon about to pick up. Still trying to work and manage things out, their conversation comes to hault due to a loud abrupt knock on the door. They open it to find a young woman who seems to appear to be lost but yet they cannot see her face due to the shadows and of course the light not being able to come on (good timing). James assumes she is lost and ends up sending her away, but that isn’t the last they will see of her. After this, James decides he needs some air and some cigarettes at an awkward time in the middle of no where and leaves Kristen home alone and says he’ll be right back. She thinks shes home alone, but we all can see and know that shes being watched by the “Strangers.” Things began to happen and terror begins to fill inside of Kristen and getting in touch with James and getting safe is all on her mind. James arrives back home to find a terrified Kristen and they are left alone in the woods to overcome this reality nightmare! The rest is up to you to watch and enjoy, but the worst part of the whole movie is when asked by Kristen “why they are doing this?” and the reply from the Strangers is that “because they were home!” BONE CHILLING!!! No special effects, no imaginary killers or zombies, just straight up crazy people that could really happen. Just don’t be alone when you watch this one!!!
Rating: A-
His fans are the best, he is very into his fans and gives them exactly what they want to hear and seems to never disappoint. No wonder this man has won so many awards and especially Male Performer of the Year several times!!! Leann Rimes opened for Kenny and she was one of the best opening acts I have heard this summer. I am not a huge fan of hers, but there sure were a lot of them there last night. After Leann performed there was the usual intermission and anticipation of what was going to come…Once the curtain rose and the pirate ship came into focus and “Mr. Bones” introduced Kenny Chesney it was screeming and cheering and sing-alonging the rest of the night. He played new ones, he played old ones( She thinks my tractor’s sexy), he even played other performers (Dave Matthews-Where are You Going; which was my favorite) and everyone enjoyed each and every song. I have said before in previous post that I am looking forward to see these performers again next year, but this is definitely on my top list to attend again. I have several friends going to the one in Raleigh tonight and have already told them they are in for a treat. Again, Kenny Chesney IS the top Male Performer and you MUSTsee him at least once…He is never disappointing!!!
