Based on the horror novel, a family must make a terrible choice. Do you dare to Knock At The Cabin?
M. Night Shyamalan has a terrific track record in scaring us out of our wits with his blend of drama and horror. We saw dead people during ‘The Sixth Sense.’ We were fearful to step foot into ‘The Village.’ And we were nervous about sunbathing on a beach in case we got ‘Old.’ But his latest movie could top them all. Coming from Universal Pictures in February of 2023, we are invited to ‘Knock At The Cabin.’ the film is based on the 2018 novel The Cabin at the End of the World by Paul G. Tremblay.
The novel won the Horror Writers Association’s Bram Stoker Award for Novel in 2019. And this marks the first time one of his works has been made into a feature film. The cast includes Dave Bautista as Leonard, Jonathan Groff as Andrew, Ben Aldridge as Eric, Nikki Amuka-Bird as Adriane, Abby Quinn as Sabrina, Rupert Grint as Redmond, and young Kristen Cui as Wen. The first trailer and poster for the film have released. Gather your nerve and KNOCK AT THE DOOR!
THE SYNOPSIS
While vacationing at a remote cabin, a young girl and her parents are taken hostage by four armed strangers who demand that the family make an unthinkable choice to avert the apocalypse. With limited access to the outside world, the family must decide what they believe before all is lost.
