Knock At The Cabin Is A Tense And

Knock At The Cabin Is A Tense And Engaging Thriller Writer/Director M. Night Shyamalan is back with his new thriller “Knock at the Cabin” and like his earlier works; the film blends reality with supernatural elements to put ordinary people in circumstances that are dangerous and unnatural. The film involves a same-sex couple named Eric (Jonathan Groff) and Andrew (Ben Aldridge), who have taken their adopted daughter Wen (Kristen Cui), to a secluded cabin for a relaxing vacation. The arrival of four strangers lead by the imposing but soft-spoken Leonard (Dave Bautista) becomes dangerous when Leonard informs them that the world is about to end and only by choosing to sacrifice one of them can the Apocalypse be diverted. Leonard explains that the four had the same vision of the end of the world and that they were drawn to save it by taking such drastic actions. They inform their captives that they will not harm them but they will not be allowed to leave as they must make the choice and failure to do so will doom everyone and force the three of them to exist as the sole-survivors of the aftermath. Convinced that the intruders are insane; Eric and Andrew refuse the offer and watch as one of the four captives sacrifices themselves which is soon followed by news on the television of a massive earthquakes which resulted in tsunamis. Convinced it is a ruse or simply timed events to the days news; the captives again refuse a request only to see another sacrifice followed by more news of devastation happening around the world. What follows is a tight thriller as Eric and Andrew learn more about their captives and the changing world situation which forces them to confront a world gone mad. The film is good at setting a tone and maintaining a mild tension throughout as the audience is left to wonder how real what is being presented by Leonard and his associates are. I liked the fact that the movie did not try to wrap things up nice and tidy and left the audiences with some questions about the events as well as what would happen in the aftermath. Bautista gives an career-best performance and shows that his is capable of doing more than the action-comedy genre which he has been playing to date and I hope he continues to seek roles such as this. While the film may not reach the levels of some of his earlier classics, Shyamalan has crafted an entertaining film that keeps you guessing. 3.5 stars out of 5

“Knock at the Cabin” is a suspenseful, thriller

“Knock at the Cabin” is a suspenseful, thriller with horror elements that wastes no time in its execution. After less than five minutes, the idyllic vacation choice of Eric and Andrew, dads to Wen, is turned into a nightmare home invasion. Leonard ( Dave Bautista ) tries to engage with Wen showing gentleness and countering the stereotype his muscular size conveys. Happily catching grasshoppers together, Leonard and Wen discuss family and future ambition. However once Leonard is joined by his three other companions his insistence and subsequent forceful entry to the cabin makes his character seem far more sinister. Denial and paranoia set the tone as the four invading characters disclose their backgrounds and cult like vision that has set them on a mission to save the World from the Apocalypse. During back and forth conversations and threat of death, love and compassion strongly prevails even after some graphic killing. When faced with the reality of the home invaders reasoning for their actions, Eric and Andrew’s rising panic with each separate revelation fuels suffocating tension that continues to grow until the final moments. With very clever use of the four headless horsemen of the Apocalypse, and the persuasive nature of Leonard, eventually Eric and Andrew believe what they are being told. Throughout “Knock at the Cabin” M. Night Shyamalan’s direction keeps the audience constantly questioning. Are the events unfolding on screen actually real or just cult like paranoia twisting events to suit their agenda. With excellent performances and great use of lighting and cinematography to convey fear and rising tension, “Knock at the Cabin” is an engaging end of the World thriller.

FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://www.msbreviews.com/movie-reviews/knock-at-the-cabin-review "Knock at the Cabin marks the triumphant comeback of M. Night Shyamalan, who possibly delivers his best film since Signs! With the help of a superb cast led by the phenomenal Dave Bautista - career-best performance - the filmmaker explores the emotional complexity found in the profound moral dilemmas placed upon human beings when faced with life-and-death decisions. Total focus on a single location with persistent cinematography (Jarin Blaschke) and immersive sound production, generating an atmosphere charged with excruciating tension. Extraordinarily gripping from start to finish. The next cult classic is born." Rating: A-
