Netflix’s latest horror movie The Strays is very dramatically leaving viewers feeling ‘scarred for life’.
As reported by our friends at LADbible, The Strays stars Ashley Madekwe, Jorden Myrie and Bukky Bakray, and tells the story of one woman’s “meticulously crafted life of privilege [which] starts to unravel when two strangers show up in her quaint suburban town.” It’s not long until the life of the main character, Neve, is turned upside down and takes a sinister turn for the worse. Neve’s perfect life spirals out of control when haunting secrets of the past catch up with her. In other words, her life has turned into a living nightmare, to say the least.
Take a look at the trailer for The Strays below.
A theme of The Strays is a concept known as ‘code switching’. “[This term is when] a member of an underrepresented group adjusts their language, syntax, grammatical structure, behaviour and appearance to fit into the dominant culture,” explains director Nathaniel Martello-White. Viewers across social media have been sharing their thoughts on the disturbing The Strays, and yeah, it sounds like a perfect film for fans of intense horror. I'll leave the teases there. It's best to go with little to no knowledge.
