As Halloween creeps closer, a good scary movie seems made to order. "The Strangers" could be just that movie. An isolated house, a frightened young couple and strangers in masks — how Halloweeny is that? Bryan Bertino wrote and directed this R- rated, 85-minute thriller that stars Liv Tyler, Scott Speedman and Gemma Ward (as somebody called "Dollface").

Also released this week:

• "The Incredible Hulk" stars Edward Norton as Bruce Banner, a scientist desperately searching for a cure to the gamma radiation that poisoned his cells and unleashes that green genie of rage. Liv Tyler (there she is again), Tim Roth and William Hurt also are featured. The film is rated PG-13.

• "Mondays in the Sun" is a 2003 Spanish-language film starring Javier Bardem in the story of five unemployed shipyard workers on the coast of Spain who, led by the cocky Santa (Bardem), manage to encourage each other to search for work, love and the strength to hope for better days. The film won five Goya Awards (the Spanish equivalent of Oscars), including best film and best actor. It's in Spanish with English subtitles and is rated R.

• "Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed" is a Ben Stein documentary that explores what Stein says is "the current and often hidden persecution of educators and scientists who are being denied tenure and even fired in some cases for their belief in the evidence of 'intelligent design' in nature, challenging the idea that life is a result of random chance or the result of evolution." It's rated PG.

• "Knight Rider: Complete Series" is a 24-disc — can you believe it? — collection of all four seasons and all 84 episodes of the original "Knight Rider" series. It stars David Hasselhoff as "the real" crime fighter Michael Knight, who drives the high-tech talking car known as K.I.T.T.
