I'm not sure why everybody is so down on this movie because for what it is it isn't that bad, sure it's short and I totally got a strangers vibe from the movie but I enjoyed it because it gets right to the point and doesn't waste your time with filler. The movie is based on the Manson Family murders and the death of Sharon Tate and her friends. It doesn't give you the gory details of the murders especially poor Sharon's and her unborn child so don't come looking for over the top gore, but if your looking for a way to waste an hour and twelve minutes give this movie a try, just imagine it as strangers 2.0...or 3 or somewhere in the middle.

If this was a straight up horror film, based on it's own merits, then this could have been one of the stand out horror films of the year, but instead, the makers decided to exploit such a sadistic crime just to sell a few more tickets, and it really taints an otherwise solid movie...Four friends gather at an elegant home during the Summer of 1969. Unbeknown to them, visitors are waiting outside. What begins as a simple party turns to a night of terror as the intruders torment the four, who fight for their lives against what appears to be a senseless attack from brainwashed disciples......Take away all the Manson references, and the awful tacked on 'based on a true story' epilogue, and you have as I've already stated, a solid little horror film that has some wonderful camera-work, and quite hilarious performances from the make members of the cast.But the camera work is the essence of the film, and the timing of the shots relies heavily on the original Halloween and some other choice horror films that caused the resurgence of the slasher genre in the late nineties.It's not necessarily a grisly piece of film making, but the fact that the main character is close to birth, really does give the film a nasty edge that isn't needed, because the mise en scene does enough to give the film the intensity it deserves.My advice is, forget that the film is influenced by abhorrent events, and as soon as the film proper fades to black, switch it off, and treat it like a piece of cheap b movie horror and nothing else.

How could you do this to the families and names of those who were killed? Making up your own story as it suited you, despite near 50 years of fact based evidence. Sure lets have him die being dragged out a window of a truck and get killed with a sledgehammer oh and make him look like a drug user pot head despite the fact of .. well who cares about what happened lets make it even worse if possible and more money!! over and over with. The film makers should be thrown in jail profiting of the deaths of those slaughtered in real life. Scum each and every one.

"Wolves at the Door" is a boring and shallow slasher with no storyline or character development. The screenplay instead of build tension, is boredom.In 1969 in California, a family is disturbed by a group that breaks in their house. Later four friends celebrate the farewell of one of them to Boston. Out of the blue, two men and two women break in their compound and they are murdered, one by one. Who are they, killers and victims? The viewer will learn in the beginning of the credits only. Don't waste your time watching this flick is the best anyone can do. My vote is two.Title (Brazil): Not Available
