Home invasion films are one of those genres that it's really hard to make a good movie with. Some, such as You're Next or Mother's Day (even Them) work well where as others come off like a low budget version of Panic Room.
Intruders is one that makes it hard to tell. It's not up there with the greats, it does try to bring something new to the table buuuuutttt....meh.
Basically, you have a woman who is scared to leave her house. So much so that when her brother (who is terminally ill and that she is looking after) dies, she can't even bear to go to the funeral.
Thinking that she is away and knowing that she has been left a great deal of money - a trio of burglars sneak into her home with hopes of finding the loot.
What they find is our heroine - who has not been using her paranoid time shut away in vain and has rigged up a bunch of R-Rated Home Alone surprises.
That's the basic plot. Not much else to tell, A few good splats and crunches but really not much else to keep you hooked.
