TRESPASSERS is yet another home invasion thriller set over a single night in which a pair of obnoxious partying couples are busy boozing and having sex and arguing amongst themselves before they're ambushed and attacked by masked invaders. It's a cheap and sleazy piece of filmmaking, enlivened only by a brief turn from '90s starlet Fairuza Balk (remember her from THE CRAFT?) who's the only fun actor in this. The bad guys take ages to show up, and then the ending is just an endless array of ridiculous twists, violent death and general unpleasantness. It's not a good film.

Plot summary
Two dysfunctional couples rent a modern luxury desert home for the weekend hoping to sort out their messed-up lives. Just as they are about to settle in for a fun night, a neighbour turns up at their front door saying she has car trouble. And that's when the murderous trouble really starts. Because without knowing it, the four friends have landed slap-bang in the wrong violent place at precisely the wrong bloody time. Hopefully your nerves of steel will hold for one of the most stylish, atmospheric and terror-filled home invasion horrors of them all.

Not a good film...
Unbelievable
The writing is atrocious, I cannot believe that anybody would ever act like this. They have an easy way out, the only prints on the gun are the jackass who caused the trouble in the first place's prints yet they still try and hide the fact that he got stabbed in self defense? Seriously? I can understand stretching your imagination for the sake of a film but this is just a slap to the face of everyone that watches this abomination. I have never written a review on IMDb like this but Trespassers has got to have one of the worst premises that I have ever had to endure. Yes, endure. This movie was straight up painful. During a tense moment in the film where you're unsure if the guy with the gun is going to just kill you all because he's incredibly unstable you admit to cheating on him? Really? REALLY? I'm so angry that the makers of this garbage would believe that we, the viewers, would believe that any human being could be this incompetent. This stupid. This inept. Don't do it, don't watch this trash. The writing is so horrendous that I rank this film right up there with Manos Hands of Fate in the bad movie department. When the home invaders finally show up it's too late, the filmmakers have already questioned the viewers intelligence to the point of no return. Please, save yourself from this head scratchingly awful film and find something, anything else to watch.
It tried. It failed.
Trespassers is a movie that wanted to be more I think, one that thought it could expand and grow into something bigger later on, an edge of the seat thriller/horror with some good twists and kills.
Sadly it failed on pretty much every level, being nothing more than a movie that takes forever to start and then delivers some annoying performances and questionable writing really. It is definitely not the worst out there, but if you're into such movies perhaps try something like Revenge (2017) because just like this one it is over the top but manages to provide some better scenes and closure. Even Mandy has more to offer compared to Trespassers, a movie that oddly enough is categorized as horror as well, perhaps the home invasion theme managed to bring this up.
All in all, I don't think people will have fun with this one sadly, so I will not recommend it, not even for a boring late night. Look elsewhere, find something different.
Cheers!
