Critics Consensus: Lacking the chilling suspense of the original The Strangers and proving to be just unpleasant, this Chapter 1 closes the book on itself.

Fans may find solace in revisiting the spine-tingling thrills of the 2008 classic, a reminder of the chilling potential that this franchise once held.

I don’t know if I was just tired, but I almost fell asleep at multiple points due to boredom.

David Griffiths

A decent slasher flick but does leave more questions than answers - but hopefully those questions will be answered in the follow-up films.

Despite Harlin's solid hold on pace and atmosphere, the narrative beats, jump scares and killers' catchphrases echo the original so slavishly that the film seems almost wholly pointless.

Harlin’s approach to the material is dull and workmanlike.
