The husband in the original is very much the same. 😂 I don’t know if they cranked it up for the remake, I’m going to see it this weekend, but he definitely made me face palm several times watching the original. Lol. I was kinda bummed they changed the ending, just because it WAS so dreadful, I haven’t watched it again in the last year but sure haven’t forgotten it. 😳 I got mad everytime I saw the trailer for this one, though, having already seen the original. It would have been SO much better if people went in blind, like I did with the original, but Blumhouse and their friggin’ trailers. Literally said out loud when I went to see Strange Darling … “mother f’ing Blumhouse and their damn trailers!” … because it showed even MORE than the trailers I saw before that for months. 🤦♀️

The original version will definitely rip your soul out but it’s really well made in every aspect and a powerful fuckin movie (also haven’t seen this version yet but from the trailers the performances are a little more subtle and nuanced which adds to things)

I'm glad we were on the same page Mike! I never watched the original either but man Scoot was pissing me off this movie. I was literally yelling at the screen stop being a bitch. Also the daughter and that damn bunny. Arg!!! Sn: a lot of people were also yelling and laughing at the screen throughout the movie so I loved the experience 😂. I had only seen the trailer for this once a while ago so I didn't really remember a lot but James McAvoy and Mackenzie are definitely the MVPs and I too couldn't help myself from being distracted by McAvoy's swoleness. ❤️🔥🧐 At the end after what went down, I literally said I hope y'all transferred your shit back.

Very much on the same page as you, I enjoyed the movie for the most part but a bit let down at the end as I had been hoping for a character arc for Ben. We've seen him be meek and avoiding confrontation throughout, his wife has called him out on it, so let's see him step up when needs be and get one of the kills. He has his moments like trying to tell his daughter to get over her teddy or jumping in the lake to save the boy but he is always thwarted. Great as it was seeing Ant make the kill at the end, it didn't feel like a development because he was brave the whole movie doing everything he could to communicate the truth to his friend, I got the impression the only reason he hadn't killed his captors already was a lack of opportunity. Still, as I always say, I'm not going to let one bad thing, even a weak ending, ruin my enjoyment of something I liked in every other way.

I was not going to see this in theaters, but all of the reviewers I follow were giving positive reviews. And I’m happy to say it was worth the trip to the theater. The original is so dark and disturbing and while this remake switches things up a bit I enjoyed where they went with the ending. Genuinely had tears in my eyes for little Ant. James McAvoy was fantastic, but did we expect anything less? The whole cast was great to be honest. Solid remake for sure; give it an 8/10.

I was with One of my exes at a bus shop and a stranger walked up to me and randomly forcefully tried to kiss me on the face. I say face because I defended myself. So.i didn't feel out where it was gonna land. My point is, my ex was so unsure in the incredible weirdness that he couldn't react. Most horror nowadays underplay that lack of reaction so this movie is interesting . Slowly putting them in a pressure cooker of awkward

I loved the original and was really skeptical about this. Why remake a film that was mostly in English and only came out two years ago anyway? Without spoilers, it’s not a remake. It’s a reimagining. Bits are changed, small at first, but the third act is completely different. I loved the original. I was pleasantly surprised by this. McAvoy was sublime

I don’t think “Blumhouse is back” is a correct way to phrase their position right now. Seems that majority of their recent movies are really low budget shlock that they put money towards and don’t care about. It seems when they have direct involvement or actually stay inside the borders of a films production, they manage to get an entertaining film or an instant hit. This film was an easy win for them as it is a remake of a new foreign film. Not to mention probably having a much larger budget and studio backing than the original. It’s nothing to knock the film for, but we can continue to criticize Blumhouse for their decisions

It might be the “best” blumhouse of late. There are parts of the danish version I preferred. The last 1/3rd of the film is more suspenseful but the Danish version I feel is horror. However I did prefer James MCavoy version over the danish version. This version also goes into some details of the family that the danish version doesn’t go into at all.
