"Because you were home." Those four words have a chilling meaning for those who have watched Bryan Bertino's The Strangers, so it's fitting that they're prominently featured on CRP Group's new cover art for Scream Factory's Collector's Edition Blu-ray of the influential horror film, which has been given a March 2018 release date that home media collectors will want to mark down on their calendars:

From Scream Factory: "At Comic-Con this year we announced that a 10th anniversary Blu-ray of the home-invasion blockbuster would be coming soon from us and today we have some more exciting information on it to share with you today!

• Official street date is March 6th, 2018--just ahead of the next film Strangers: They Prey at Night, which opens up in theaters on March 9th.

• This is a 2-Disc set that will contain both the theatrical and unrated versions of the film. It will be branded as a “Collector’s Edition” that will come with a slipcover (guaranteed for three months after its original release date). U.S. and Canada territories (Region A).

• The newly-commissioned artwork pictured comes to us from the CRP Group (Firestarter, Rabid, Species, Drag Me to Hell). This art will be front-facing and the reverse side of the wrap will be a cool variant from the original theatrical exploration. (See below in the comments for visual)

• Extras and specs are still in progress and will be announced at a later date. However, we can confirm today that we will be doing a brand new film transfers

Pre-order now directly from our website @ https://www.shoutfactory.com/…/the-strangers-collector-s-ed… to get the product two weeks early from national street date plus you’ll receive a free collectible 18” x 24” rolled poster of the newly-designed key art (while supplies last)"
