“The Stranger” (*1/2 out of four) was a moribund horror thriller about the owner of a small hotel (Jennifer K. Preston) who is already grieving after the death of her husband and finds that her existence is disrupted by the arrival of a mysterious visitor (Damien Ashley) who threatens her sanity and thus her life. Mostly lifeless collection of horror cliches lifted from endless and other better movies especially “The Shining” but has no relation to the 2008 cult classic “The Strangers.” Even still, this won accolades at the 2022 Dead Northern Film Festival and the 2022 Grimmfest Horror Festival but none from this FB reviewer.
