Countdown to Halloween Continues With A Great Joke: “Knock! Knock!”

“Who’s There?” Horror! It’s the month where you NEVER answer your door at night – and here is a great example of why not…as one reviewer puts it:

“What we do have is a home invasion film for the social media generation that should make you think twice before offering warmth and shelter to a stranger on a dark and stormy night.”

Sounds like a great Halloween movie to me!

“Knock Knock!”

“The Green Inferno” Director Eli Roth strikes again with a sex-fueled thriller starring Keanu Reeves!

The plot is simple: a devoted husband and father is left home alone for the weekend – and two stranded young women unexpectedly knock on his door for help. Things quickly heat up, and all sorts of sexual shenanigans ensure!

Here is the trailer:

Dread Central awarded it a score of 4 out of 5, and were behind the line: “what we do have is a home invasion film for the social media generation (yes, it does feature social media in its plot) that should make you think twice before offering warmth and shelter to a stranger on a dark and stormy night.”

Dark and stormy night thrillers are exactly what you want this time of year!

“Knock Knock!” – Meet “Death Game”!

“Knock Knock” looks like a twisted, vicious little movie, but did you know that it’s based on a twisted, vicious little movie from the 1970’s?

Here’s a great fact: Eli Roth based his movie on a classic cult film called “Death Game”!

Colleen Camp and Sondra Locke are two of the producers of “Knock Knock”, and they starred in “Death Game” in 1977!

Sandra Locke of course starred in a number of Clint Eastwood film such as “Sudden Impact”, and I’d love to see the original “Death Game” as well!

As I said, Eli Roth is also the Director of the Amazon cannibal horror film “The Green Inferno”, which the Director shot on location!

I am a big Keanu Reeves fans, and enjoyed his fictional directing debut last year as well:
