Does anyone remember Fargo? If so keep reading.... The movie Fargo was based on "true events" which actually i read up on it and it said that it was not based on true events. The director, producer, and the writer decided to say that Fargo was based on true events so that more people would go see it.. So is The Strangers the same thing? Or is it based on a killing in northern California? Well it was both. The strangers is based on a few killings not any of them said anything about a killing in cali. It was based on the mason killings, cabin 28 killings, the Czech Republic where a couple was terrorized by three teens and then later killed. So the new movie the strangers is not based on one specific murder, its based on three. So I hoped this helped you out.

Do not totally agree with the above...I read this on "Wikipedia"...when the director was a child, a stranger came to his house asking for someone who did not live there or who was not there (can't remember exact). Then he found out that a vacant house in his neighborhood was broken into the same night/day, I guess that spooked him out a little, as would me, but then he goes on to say that Helter Skelter was his main inspiration

No how can you believe wikipedia more than half the stuff they say is FAKE!!!

Someone told me that it was all over the newspaper, and the story got "discovered", (whatever it's called) So, whoever it happened to took the information off the internet, and stuff, although, I'm not sure if it's true, so don't hold me down if I'm wrong.

What, exactly, does "based on true events" or "inspired by true events" mean? It snows in Fargo, ND (even though Fargo was actually filmed in Minnesota) and I don't doubt that someone once drank a beer in a bar in Fargo, ND, so if those two events were true, then it could be truthfully said that it was "inspired by true events" even if everything else in the movie was fabricated from whole cloth.

According to production notes for the film, The Strangers was "inspired by true events" that happened to the director, Bryan Bertino, in his childhood. A stranger came to his home asking for someone who wasn't there, and Bertino later found out that several homes in the neighborhood were broken into that night. In interviews, Bertino has stated that his main inspiration was from the book Helter Skelter and the Keddie Cabin Murders in 1981 in Keddie, CA, in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Therefore, yes, The Strangers was inspired by true events.

This movie could be absolutely fake how the hell can a flippin ghost come in your house can they move away nloike in a second
