The Strangers
Bryan Bertino

Liv Tyler and Scott Speedman play a couple stranded in a house in the middle of nowhere. For reasons never made clear, they become the targets of three masked assailants.
Despite the generic set-up, this was a taut and effective creepy little thriller executed with some visual flair and unusual pacing.
Pity about the bland title.
