'Will this be the movie to finally knock 'Avatar: The Way of Water' off the top of the box-office charts? Don't bet against it.'
Dave Bautista, Nikki Amuka-Bird, and Rupert Grint are shown in a scene from the movie,"Knock At The Cabin."Astonish us! That seems to be the demand we make on India-born filmmaker M. Night Shyamalan every time he unleashes a new horrorfest. We want that "Sixth Sense" twist again. The twist comes with all the suspense trimmings in "Knock at the Cabin," only in theaters since there's no place like the dark to gather audiences and fry their nerves to a frazzle.
"Knock at the Cabin," directed and co-written by Shyamalan, is an adaptation of the 2018 novel "The Cabin at the End of the World" by Paul Tremblay. Don't grab the book to figure out the ending since Shyamalan modified it to suit his own brand of terror, which means creating an atmosphere of compelling claustrophobia that holds you in its grip.
Right away we're thinking home invasion since a quartet of stranger-dangers, led by the hulking Leonard , is carrying scary homemade weapons. Will it be robbery, kidnapping, even murder? Or are they homophobes who don't approve of gay adoption?I'll never tell, though I will say that Leonard and his pals, Redmond , Adriane and Sabrina , are on a mission to save the world from apocalypse. And to do it they need this family to voluntarily sacrifice one of its members.
Dave Bautista, Nikki Amuka-Bird, and Rupert Grint are shown in a scene from the movie,"Knock At The Cabin."You feel the tension between the two daddies, both avid to protect their child. Aldridge finds the heat in Andrew that makes him want to strike out. Groff, so great as singer and actor , is superb as Eric and speaks movingly to Shyamalan's theme about the necessity of faith in times of crisis.
