Draws on

What the speakers say they, or a film of theirs, drew on. Each is a speaker's account: “the maker said so” when they report the maker's own words, “the host's read” when the read is theirs.

Manson family murders: 1 line

  1. lineage (lineage) · through The Strangers (2008), which they scored: Manson family murders ⇒ The Strangers (the maker said so). Bertino cited the Manson family murders as an inspiration, but the speaker finds that unsatisfying because Manson had intent while the Strangers act at random.
    “Bertino says that the Manson family tape murders were a big inspiration for this.”
    The Big Picture · ‘Mamma Mia!’ Meets ‘The Strangers'! It’s a Movie Swap! · 0:33:41 · Amanda Dobbins (0.60 sure it was them)

The Town That Dreaded Sundown: 1 line

  1. lineage (lineage) · through The Strangers (2008), which they scored: The Town That Dreaded Sundown ⇒ The Strangers (the host's read). The tall stranger's sack mask calls back to The Town That Dreaded Sundown.
    “wears a kind of sack mask that recalls like the town that dreaded sundown.”
