The Strangers

Horror films almost automatically are there for the characters to make dumb decisions so the audience will scream, "No!!!" And they are designed to make the audience scream. "The Strangers" is a movie that is effective in both instances.
The end (without revealing anything) was both unexpected and unlikely. Although I don't have a huge problem with it, I am also not madly in love with it.
Do not read below for spoiler:
There were several strange things about the movie. The main question I have is: why go to a secluded house with someone that you've just broken up with? To me that was the dumbest thing ever.
