Renny Harlin\u2019s \u201cThe Strangers: Chapter 1\u201d is a remake of the 2008 original and the first of three new films scheduled to be released throughout the year.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Well, I think it\u2019s a remake unless this eventually aligns itself with the original and justifies that sometimes the same thing happens in movies, just to different people, as in the 2011 remake\/prequel to \u201cThe Thing.\u201d<\/p>\n

A pleasant but clueless couple, Maya and Ryan (Madeline Petsch and Froy Gutierrez), take a road trip and find themselves stranded in Venus, Oregon. The town has bad internet reception, run-down diners (don\u2019t you dare ask for a vegetarian alternative!) and unfriendly locals.<\/p>\n

Maya and Ryan wind up in an Airbnb and believe their romantic gestures are going to allow them a full night of sex and sleep, but we know better.<\/p>\n

Why? Because the movie begins with title cards that not only inform us of how many murders take place in this country, but how many people have died since you, dear filmgoers, have been sitting in this movie theater (William Castle, eat your heart out).<\/p>\n

Oh, and the first scene in the movie depicts a guy getting axed to death by a trio of hooded killers, in a setting just down the road from where Maya and Ryan are discussing their hopes and dreams.<\/p>\n
