The Strangers: Chapter 3

February 1, 2026

THE STRANGERS: CHAPTER 3 is a 2026 horror film directed by Renny Harlin, from a screenplay by Alan R. Cohen and Alan Freedland. It serves as the fifth film in The Strangers film series, and the final installment of a new trilogy following THE STRANGERS: CHAPTER 1 (our full review here) and THE STRANGERS: CHAPTER 2 (our full review here). I will be the first to admit that the first entry in the new trilogy was a bit rough to say the least, but the 2nd film impressed me with more of a focus on origin story and the slasher element that made the franchise so successful in the beginning.

In the "Strangers" finale, survivors face new threats from masked strangers. Secrets emerge, jeopardizing their lives as the line between reality and peril blurs in their battle for survival.

The cast includes Madelaine Petsch, Gabriel Basso, Ema Horvath, and Richard Brake.

THE STRANGERS: CHAPTER 3 is set to debut in theaters February 6th, 2026, courtesy of Lionsgate. Watch the official trailer below.
