An initial meeting with the films' musical supervisor resulted in the supervisor, Reeves and the two directors being invited to Bates' home recording studio, where they were played an unmixed version of the entire album. The song's cowriter, Tyler Bates, has stated that John Wick directors Chad Stahelski and David Leitch were fans of Manson's work and they "wanted to have something Manson in the movie". It was first released on October 24, 2014, when it was prominently featured in the movie John Wick, starring Keanu Reeves. The track has been described as a "slow burner", and "atmospheric", and has been favorably compared to some of the band's previous album openers, including "GodEatGod" from Holy Wood (In the Shadow of the Valley of Death) (2001) and " If I Was Your Vampire" from Eat Me, Drink Me (2007). It is composed of verses sung over a continuously repeating D minor drone harmony throughout, with choruses following a chord sequence of Dm-F-Bb-Gm. According to Ultimate Guitar, the song has a slow tempo of 60 beats per minute in a time signature of 4Ĥ. "Killing Strangers" is a downtempo rock song which runs for a duration of five minutes and 36 seconds. Hugh Warner would go on to recount how "when people talk about, I don't think they understand that when you've killed so many people and then you have to come back to a normal world, it's very difficult to re-adjust to it", with Manson explaining that the lyric 'We're killing strangers so we don't kill the ones that we love' "became so much about my father and my mother". Manson had publicly discussed his father's role in spraying Agent Orange over the Vietnamese jungle during the conflict. Hugh Warner characterized the film as "the most accurate portrayal of the Vietnam War", and spent the evening describing events which Manson had "never heard before, in my whole childhood". Shortly after the death of his mother in 2014, Manson and his father spent an evening watching Francis Ford Coppola's 1979 film Apocalypse Now and smoking marijuana. The song was one of the final tracks recorded for The Pale Emperor, and its composition was inspired by the PTSD exhibited by Manson's father, Hugh Warner, after his time spent serving in the US military during the Vietnam War. The song garnered generally positive reviews from music critics, with several publications favorably comparing the song to several of the band's previous album openers. The track peaked within the top ten of the Billboard Hard Rock Digital Songs.
