I think the “cliffhanger” scene was moreso a doctor at the hospital knocking to see if it was okay to go in. But because of her trauma from “is Tamara home” girl & the others, it made her jump & question if her she was safe or still not safe yet

the entire pool sequence from the lighting, to the song choice, to the camerawork is EVERYTHING. So iconic.

that kid very clearly and coherently said the words "some crazy people are trying to kill us" and the police operator had the temerity, the GALL, to waste a precious second saying "okay calm down."

I like to interpret the ending as just showing how traumatized they will be for the rest of their lives lol. The knock on the hospital room door could be a nurse or doctor but for the rest of their lives they’ll associate a knock on the door with trauma

bailee madison is such a great actress she deserved the final girl title and to have more horror projects she's really killing it if you're interested to see more of bailee you should try and watch pretty little liars: original sin her performance was truly outstanding especially with the final episode which gave her another final girl moment

Sis made an excellent nuanced point: had I witnessed my mother’s murder my rage response would have taken over and I’d be on a revenge kick for retribution. However, finding a body changes the dynamic - no context, just shock and the immediacy of the loss takes over the brain, paralyzing you. I appreciate that take.

Prey at Night is fantastic. Not as serious as the first and it goes for the camp without apologizing for it. The soundtrack is tops as well. Can't believe it's almost been 5 years since it came out

Despite it taking a while to get there, this feels like a course correction for anyone who thought the previous movie's characters were too passive. It's rare to see a brother and sister team who end up the survivors; it's so satisfying seeing them fight back.

“And Betty Boop is still on the loose” 🤣

That pool scene is one of the best sequences in a modern thriller I’ve seen in awhile, and I assume that while there was a lot of blood, the water probably spread it and made it look like a worse wound than it was

My headcanon is that Kinsey and Luke both survive and the knocking at the door in the end was just the nurse and Kinsey was being paranoid due to her trauma, which doesn't really make it a better situation for her but at least they survive!

"Allies in the fight against despair." I can't tell you how much I appreciate that you acknowledge people struggling (and cursing things/people causing our pain and trauma). You are a ray of sunshine in the world. Thank you for always spreading light and love, and for bringing me laughter and a reprieve from my darksided thoughts.

Alanda being like "am I sadistic?" 🤣 too funny.

Bailee Madison is such a gem. She was so good in Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin. I didn't have a choice but to stan. 💅

YASSSSSS the score of this movie is so 80’s the vibes are IMMACULATE. Dare I say I enjoy this one more than the original 🌚

I’m so glad you enjoyed this one! One of my absolute favorite slasher movies. Kinsey is not appreciated as a Final Girl enough. She fought HARD.

I’m dead at how this movie had you questioning your own mentality, lmao!!! The “Am I sadistic?!” had me rollin’!! ..I haven’t seen this one in so long that I don’t even remember what I thought of it! Had a blast as usual watching with you though!! Keep it up, Alanda!!🤗

Bailee Madison was *made* to be a horror girl, my god. I need her in more horror movies immediately, in large part for her scream power. If her and Samara Weaving were in a movie together? Blowing out the speakers lmao

It was Alanda yelling "that's my child!" throughout for me lololol

"this is how I know these kids are white to the bone..." Gurl stop 😂

Love this movie honestly. And The Strangers is cemented in pop culture - Chucky referenced “Is Tamara home” in the new season and I was LIVING for it

the pool scene was so scary yet so camp! perfection!

The cinematography as well!! It's simply gorgeous! For such a dark movie (like, physically dark) to be so beautifully and purposefully lit in the late 2010s is AMAZING. Why people just accepted that if you're watching a dark scene during the day you shouldn't be able to see anything I have no idea! That and the more artistic camera movements truly remind me of mid to late 70s slashers than 80s (despite the iconic soundtrack). In the same way, the filmmakers recognized when you need the catharsis of the kills of the murderers in order to pace yourself through the rest of the movie and to have the audience truly align themselves with the characters (in terms of realism and believability). And they are characters, they're not just undeveloped teenage fodder that you don't really care about (like in the Friday the 13th series, for example). They choreographed this movie to the letter and I truly appreciate it for what it is.

The Strangers is so underrated 💓

It's nice to see siblings that actually have each other's asses in these movies. My sister wouldn't cross the street if I was stuck in a damn bear trap.

Bailee Madison is also one of the main girls in PLL original sin and she’s sooooo good. So cool to see her grow up in movies and tv

Such a magnificent slasher, very gut-wrenching at times. Bailee Madison is what makes this film for me ❤

"There are no weapons in a bathroom!" Someone tell me why my kneejerk reaction was "uh-uh, take the lid off the toilet tank, that's a weapon!" 😂

I forgot how iconic Bailee is in this, especially towards the end- Full Final Girl mode. SO GOOD!

I really had high hopes for Hendricks but this truly ate!; and I'm with you, those last few seconds, TRAUMA response, it was a respectful nurse/doctor/cleaner, knocking. It only sounded loud because she was stressed. That's my ending and I'm sticking to it! 🙏

luke and kinsley are two of my absolute fave final boy and girl like.... they both got a streak of violence that is sooo iconic

Lol 😂 from the beginning mention of her character in The Fosters, I was like damn you're going to love her by the end...AND WHO WOULDN'T?! This is such a good movie. 😂😂

I'm so suprirsed how much I loved this. The soundtrack. The character development. THE SOUNDTRACK.

pool scene is STUNNING

"Give it up, Crispy." 😂😂 absolutely love your reactions!

The fact that this franchise is getting rebooted so soon and already has a trilogy planned is crazy to me. Not a franchise I would go back to personally but maybe the new trilogy will be good.

Yesss! Im so glad this was on your list. I rewatch this constantly. The soundtrack and scenery is A1 to me 🎉

Ballie Madison's performance here is so good, you know an actress is good when you start almost crying and thinking these characters are real like whew immerse me into this world (not really) but take it there yknow??! Also, this franchise is getting a reboot of sorts soon

this movie is sooo underrated and it shaped my music taste sm when i first saw it just bc of the amazing soundtrack

I know that every movie that's "based on true events" takes liberties to make the story more dramatic and entertaining, but any time a horror movie claims to be based on a true story or true events, I assume the true part of the story is: "Some people died one time."

i was in the middle of rewatching your fear street videos when this notification pops up! just wanted to let you know you bring so much joy to my day, and watching ur vids is like watching with a friend, grateful for you miss alanda

when the world needed her most… she returned 🥹

THERE WILL BE ANOTHER ONE!!!! It finished filming and will be out this year!😊

Lewis Pullman cries so pretty 🥹 also will never get over how much him and his dad, Bill Pullman, look alike lol

Initially I was so bothered by choices being made, but both kids finally got it together to fight back. Sack face finally getting his - it was a hard won victory, but she got his ass. Made it very satisfying.

Watching you root for Kinzie in the end is such a mood. Like I remember when I first watched this one and reacting the same as you did.

I love this movie way more than the original because it feels way more like a slasher than the first one

I wonder what would happen if someone answered the door and replied “Yeah, one sec. TAMERA! Tamera someone say the door for you!”

Now that’s a great sequel! I loved it! They’re supposed to release yet another one, as far as I heard. Also Bailee Madison is great in this! She’s also in the Pretty Little Liars reboot, it’s kinda good too! Another great reaction from the best! Thank you, Alanda! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Girl, I just finished smoking a fattie, poured a glass of sangria and heating up my empanadas. Its.gonna be a good night. Thanks for the upload. I hope everyone has a lovely week.

Any movie that starts with Kim Wilde's Kids In America has to be good! I totally laughed when you started to sing Total Eclipse of the Heart. Hahahaha!!!!

“There ain’t no weapons in a bathroom” girl I would take that lid off the back of the toilet and start swinging for my life! 😂

Prey at Night is a lot of fun. I showed up for Christina Hendricks and stayed for a killer final girl! I didn't even mind that we lose Hendricks so early 😅

Things have been really tough lately. Your videos always bring a bit of lightness and levity. I appreciate the time you take to make these, Alanda.

Watching Luke get stabbed in the pool was so sad 😭

I swear she stays uploading when I’m getting ready for bed and then I get caught in a loop rewatching all her previous videos 🙄

Love the soundtrack. This movie introduced me to “Making Love out of Nothing at All” by Air Supply. It’s become one of my favorites and I love how the movie used it

Doctors and nurses always knock before they open the door! If we think about the end with that in mind, it’s much easier to imagine they’re okay.

Hey, Alanda! It really helped me in my learning-to-love-horror journey to learn that any horror movie "based on/inspired by" true events is not at all based on anything remotely resembling the plot of the movie until proven otherwise. It is Cocaine Bear "true" all the way down.

they could ditch "the strangers" title and come back with a prey at night 2 cause I need a follow up with these two siblings. bailee was a STANDOUT in this performance. such a great actress.

A total eclipse of the heart.

There's an extended ending where the door opens to an empty hallway with the overhead lights turning off one by one and you hear Kenzie screaming

Christina Hendricks being the first to die I like to think is an homage to Drew Barrymore in Scream! Also, when blonde killer girl knocks on the car window to expose she has the keys, is giving Scream as well! I watched this at the movies when it came out and become an immediately fan!

I'm so exited to watch this reaction...U look so damn good too.

I was watching your reaction to Scream 3, and this popped up!

I agree about the situation about "my Momma" - I would either be consumed with rage, or simply no more good. I have actually Told my Mom that (if not for the pain it would cause her) I hope I die first - I simply cannot imagine living without her.

While I still prefer the first movie I absolutely love this one, I like how it's different from the first, which was a lot more contained and claustrophobic, it had more of a suffocating atmosphere, whereas this one feels bigger and more desperate with how fast-paced it is, it maintains elements of the first one, something I appreciate a lot, but it doesn't repeat the same style, and that makes sense given it's been 10 years since the first one and these are different victims, they respond differently, and the area requires different behaviors. Also Kinsey was amazing as a final girl, once her and Luke got time to breathe they let loose and fought, mistakes were made but that's how it goes in situations like that, it's hard to be perfect, and Kinsey went all out with as much as strength as she could muster and I love her for it. And Madison was incredible with her acting, that moment of her smiling when she's about to burn sack guy made me wish she'd play a killer in a slasher, I love her as a survivor like here and Pretty Little Liars but I need her to be the one chasing next time. Anyway, I've been binge-watching your channel and I noticed you really like Kevin Williamson's films so I have a classic one for you: Teaching Mrs. Tingle. He wrote and directed it, and the cast is *everything*, with Katie Holmes and THE Helen Mirren as lead roles. It was one of my favorite movies as a kid and it remains as iconic as I remember it, granted it carries a lot of nostalgia for me so you'd have to see it for yourself lol It's not really a horror like a lot of his movies, it's more of a thriller comedy, feels a little bit campy if I'm being honest and that makes me love it even more now as an adult.

Bailee Madison needs to be in more horror movies. She was good in the new Pretty Little Liars Series

I knew you'll love the fight back ! It feels even better watching it with you ! Thank you Queen A 💜💜

This movie actually takes place in the 80’s, hence why they had no cell phones or dash cams. So glad you came out with this though. I actually think it’s one of those rare sequels that’s better than the original.

OMG NOT THE TITLE REMINDING ME OF SCREAM QUEENS BUT HAPPY TO BE HERE AND WATCH YOU ALANDA I LOVE YOUR VIDEOSS 🤗😭❤️❤️

I’ve been so excited waiting for this reaction. Personally prefer this over the first!

it’s so 80s and camp and it’s not setting out to be great! i love this movie

Am I FIRST?!? This movie is drastically different from the first one but I love the badassery of it all. Hope ur having a splendid night.

This one's okay but the pool scene is better than both movies combined.

I loved this movie when it came out and I see why some people didnt like it. It was definitely a different vibe from the first one with it just being a simple home invasion thriller, but the scares in this movie, cinematography along with the song choices and when the kids started fighting back was so satisfying to me.

So excited! Honestly I’d watch anything you put out bc you’re just that amazing

I like both Strangers movies. The woman that plays Dollface is Emma Bellomy and she's from my home state of Kentucky.

"You'll never find Tamara" HAHAHA one of the funniest Alanda lines

Lol. I actually watched The Fosters too. Idk if it’s just me but when I first seen her I was like “whoa, she actually looks like Maia Mitchell” I was astonished to figure out that they weren’t actually related irl

I dislike The Strangers, but this sequel is SO GOOD! The pool scene is everything, and that soundtrack! And I interpreted the knock at the very end as just her trauma. Never decided if the knock was in her head, or if it's just a nurse. Also noticed that it wanted to pay Fall once you were done, and I hope you react to that movie at some point. Went into that with very low expectations, and came out incredibly tense!

I need a reaction to Christine like ASAP 🤭

Love the sweater! 💕 Hope all is well everyone 😊

YAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSS MY QUEEN RELEASES A NEW VIDEO!!!!

I’ve been waiting for this movie😆

Alanda has the best reaction and is so adorable.

Gurl once again great reaction!!! Your the sunshine to my glittery ✨️ bow 🎀 day. Thanks for the laughs 😀 😄

Lol love your reactions…would love to see you react to The Skeleton Key 😂 (if you haven’t seen it already)

never heard Alanda talk so much during a reaction. You know she was having a great time. 😁😁

idc what anyone says, prey at night is way better than the first one ❤️ there’s actually a theory that there were two man in the masks, while luke and his father were getting attacked is when kinsey was also being followed by the man in the mask in the truck and that he’s the one who knocked at the end of the movie but that could also be her trauma i’m so glad you reacted to this movie! they’re making three new strangers movies! idk if it’s events that happened before or in between but it’s exciting that they’re coming back 🤪

I love The Strangers. The first one is a home invasion film, while this one is more of traditional slasher movie. I think they’re underrated

I fully went into this movie expecting it to be a let down, because how can u top the brutality and suspense of the first one? but it's such a different kind of movie in the best possible way.

My little sister and I used to watch this movie SOOOO MUCH.....idk the big bro little sis combo trying to fight for life really connected wit us....have only rewatched the original a handful of times but THIS ONE was a constant...them siblings put up a real fight.....they were no John Wicks but for teens who both witnessed their parents murdered and fighting 3 grown people I always felt they did good.

I LOVE THIS MOVIE SO MUCH

I feel like the ending isn’t the killer coming back it’s the trauma they both endured and got as a result of everything (or also a nightmare) but my girl DID THAT AND SO DID MY BOY! Love em sm

Yessss so excited for this. Love you queen!!!!❤❤

PLEASE watch “ don’t be afraid of the dark “ It stars her as a young girl and used to scare me so bad as a kid lol

The ending is just a nurse knocking on the door to check on them, they both lived.

Betty boop doll face death scene was very satisfying because she was the first I’m not gonna lie 😂😂 then the other 2 killers getting a taste if there own medicine really puts me in a chokehold because it’s like wow someone finally did it but not just anyone a freaking minor 😂😂😫 but good reaction this one definitely ate 😊❤

I love this movie so much!! I’m glad you also loved it, and bailee Madison (idk how to spell) is amazing in the new pretty little liars
