Eli Roth's name is often associated with his over-the-top horror movies, films that push the boundaries. Roth has made movies with sadistic killers and some very violent scenes. However, the only thing sadistic about his latest film, Knock Knock, is asking audiences to sit through it.
The film stars Keanu Reeves as family man and all-around good guy, Evan Webber. Oh sure, his wife might joke about him hurting his shoulder picking up bags off the carousel for pretty girls at the airport, but there's no sense that he's actually a bad guy and he certainly seems to love his two children. Sadly for him, the wife and kids are heading out of town for a long weekend (they're actually leaving for this weekend on Sunday and returning Tuesday, but they're calling it a weekend anyway) and Evan has to stay home and work on his latest architecture project.
In the middle of the first night alone, two women, Genesis (Lorenza Izzo) and Bel (Ana de Armas), knock on Evan's door, explaining that they're trying to get to a party and are lost. It's raining, it's late, and Evan is, as stated, a nice guy, so he lets them come inside and wait as he calls an Uber. After some laughable (for the audience) flirting on their part, flirting which makes Evan very uncomfortable, the women de-robe and become quite sexually aggressive. Evan soon sleeps with Genesis and Bel and the next day they torture him for it.
Do not look for any answers behind what takes place in Knock Knock, motivations are paper-thin if they exist at all. Do not look for scares either as the film is a far cry from some of Roth's other work. Do not look for knowing winks or nods about the foolishness to the audience, Knock Knock feels in no way self-aware. Do not bother thinking throug...

Oct 10, 2015 · Knock Knock is a pretty flimsy erotic thriller, but thanks to Reeves’ oaken obliviousness it’s also got a few moments of deliciously trashy fun. It’s like Fatal Attraction for the naked-selfie...
