The horrifying events that took place in the Hoyt family's vacation home at 1801 Clark Road on February 11, 2005, are still not entirely known. Champagne. Rose petals. Candlelight. It was supposed to be a night of celebration for Kristen McKay (Liv Tyler) and James Hoyt (Scott Speedman). But after leaving a friend's wedding reception and returning to the house, everything had collapsed for the happy couple. Then came a 4 a.m. knock on the door and a haunting voice. Is Tamara here?

Writer/director Bryan Bertino explores our most universal fears in "The Strangers," a terrifying suspense thriller about a couple whose remote getaway becomes a place of terror when masked strangers invade. The confrontation forces Kristen and James to go far beyond what they thought themselves capable of if they hope to survive.

Interview: Liv Tyler, Scott Speedman for "The Strangers"
This week Scott Speedman and Liv Tyler are starring together in "The Strangers", a $9 million home invasion thriller 'inspired by a true story' and from debut director Bryan Bertino. The film went through various issues...

- Originally was to be released in the summer of 2007 but was pushed back. Then after being pushed back a second time the film was finally released on May 30, 2008.

- The movie is inspired by an event from the director Bryan Bertino's childhood, among other things. A stranger came to his home at 12:00 a.m. asking for someone who did not live there. Later, he found out that empty homes in the neighborhood had been burglarized. With that memory in mind, Bertino created this screenplay.

- There were two promotional one-sheet posters for the film that were released in August 2007, one displaying the three masked Strangers, and the other displaying a wounded Liv Tyler.
