Critics Consensus

The Strangers: Prey at Night may appeal to fans of the original who've been jonesing for a sequel, but its thin story and ironic embrace of genre tropes add up to a bloody step back.

Grimly efficient sequel to the 2008 shocker The Strangers.

2/5

With its infuriatingly dim-witted characters and generic slasher movie feel, The Strangers: Prey At Night is a surprisingly tame and forgettable rehash.

0/5

No tension, no drama, no interest, no scares, no emotional involvement and no motive. No chance.

The movie is a wash of reprocessed horror gimmicks which we’ve all seen over and over.

3.5/4

Prey at Night makes the audience feel everything it wants us to, and what's more, it outdoes the original in every way, making for an unexpected, satisfying slasher - a rarity to be sure.

I loved watching this film, for one reason and one reason only: it is gorgeous.

This in my opinion is the and I use this word loosely best in the franchise. Now buddy with the axe was harder to put down than Jason from Friday The 13th! Fiction can get too dumb at times this is one of those times lol 😝. Still though for a franchise I can’t believe made it past part 1 this one is the one I’d watch. No order is needed as each one is basically the same.

Not really a fan of scary movies but my daughter likes them a lot. To me this was tolerable and got some of my attention. My daughter says this is her favorite out of all the strangers series. Background music was nostalgic and enjoyable. Would watch again if I had to. My daughter made me purchase and I got a discount so it was worth it.

Pray at Night offers nothing new—just another round of masked killers who appear everywhere with impossible ease, cutting down victims effortlessly while requiring near-dismemberment to stop. The imbalance is exhausting: the “good guys” spend 95% of the film running and suffering, leaving only scraps of resistance. Instead of suspense, we get recycled clichés that prove once again this franchise is content to chase its own shadow.

This movie was so dumb, I started rooting for the bad guys. I wish I had a time machine so I could get back the time I wasted on this movie.
