The Last Games Of The Strangers – Scary As Hell Edition
 a TRUE FANEDIT by 3Raz0r
These are the scary as hell 24 hours of family torture. In an episodic structure Funny Games (2007), The Strangers (2008) and The Last House on The Left (2009) are combined to one gruesome 3h movie. How much can you take? member ratings: |

INTENTION:
my intention? You would not have guessed it, but I want to make you suffer and put you through an experience that you will not easily forget. All 3 movies have their weaknesses, combined I think they are a lot better and really different. “Funny Games” was a strange horror movie that played the audience. It was draggingly slow. It had weird scenes. I know, I deleted the experimental approach from it by adding score and taking away what made it special. But now it’s actually thrilling. “The Strangers” had its major weakness in repeating again and again the same games to cause anxiety. Even though it is the shortest of the three, it felt very long. By splitting it up and cutting away bits and pieces it gets a lot more scary. “The Last House On The Left” was a solid, yet standard remake that unlike the original was told as a thrilling story. But it suffers from nowadays weakness of too much unneeded gore and too streamlined scenes that we all have seen way to often. By cutting the crap I think I have reduced it to a version that has more in common with the coldness of the original.
EDITING DETAILS:
Some people already know that I have a fable for horror movies. With this episodic take on 3 movies into 1, I wanted to create an ultimate “how much can you take?” fanedit. The 3 movies have a few things in common: all 3 happen in more or less 24h and in all 3 of them sweet and innocent families are tortured by violent strangers. Other than that the movies differ a lot from each other. I tried to correct that, which turns “Funny Games” into a serious movie, “The Strangers” into a less dragging one and “The Last House On The Left” into a “less gory” one. I have changed the aspect ratio and the look of the movies, so they all better fit to each other. The order of the scenes is set by the time events occur. So the fanedit starts in the morning and ends in the morning of the next day. It takes a bit of time to get used to the narration style, because you are actually watching 3 movies and it is intentional that it feels like switching from one to the other.

It took me quite a while to get into the strange style of this fan edit, because it switches all the time from one movie to the other. But once that happened, it was a great horror experience and I think you improved every movie. I love it and rate it with 9 stars.

I enjoyed every second of the 3h. This is the perfect movie for a horror event with your friends. Thank you, 3Raz0r, for a truly ultra-long but never boring horror ride.

this is one sick edit. And it makes me question myself, why I actually watch a thing like that. But it was exectued perfectly and I had way more fun than with each of the originals. 3Raz0r puts us through horror hell here.
If you want to ttorture your g/f – this is the one to do it with – for 3h. Image quality was surprisingly good for a SL release. Audio was great. I liked the score for Funny Games.
To me this is an experimental masterpeice. Very daring. and exactly what fanedits are about: to turn something known into something completely different.
