On May 17, 2024, The Strangers: Chapter 1 hits theaters. The Strangers: Chapter 1 is a prequel to The Strangers (2008) and The Strangers: Prey at Night (2018). Come May, The Strangers franchise will officially become a horror trilogy. That said, 16 long years have passed since the original movie terrified audiences to their core, so rewatching The Strangers and The Strangers: Prey at Night might be mandatory before the upcoming film.While both movies are simple slasher films on the surface, The Strangers has some of the best lore and scares to offer the subgenre. There are loads of reasons to refresh one’s memory before The Strangers: Chapter 1. Since the original film is well over 15 years old, some modern horror fans may never have seen The Strangers. Now’s the time to change that.The original movie has two sources of inspiration. The first inspiration came from the infamous Manson Family murders that occurred on August 9-10, 1969. In Los Angeles, CA, several members of the Manson Family participated in multiple murders that stretched across two days. These specific cases are known as the Tate–LaBianca murders (often shortened to the Tate murders). Bryan Bertino, the movie’s writer and director, also took inspiration from a series of home invasions that happened in his childhood neighborhood.
