“Knock
Knock” brings the audience into the Evan’s (Reeves) happily married life with a
talented wife and two adorable kids. As
his wife and kids prepare for a weekend away from home, Evan is forced to stay
home due to a pressing work deadline. As he prepares for a self-retreat over
the weekend, Evan hears a knock on their door the first night he’s left
alone. At the door are two young women,
wet and seemingly lost in their neighbourhood.
Evan dismisses the two, Genesis (Izoo) and Bel (Armas) but the two
insisted that it’s within the neighbourhood that they’re trying to look for the
house where they’re supposed to party all night. Giving in, Evan lets them in to lend his
computer to find the exact address the two are looking for. As the evening progresses, Evan starts to
feel uncomfortable with the physical advances the girls are giving him.
Initially avoiding the temptation, Evan finally succumbs to seduction only to
find out that Bel and Genesis are the liars from hell every married man should
be cautious of. A series of unlucky
streaks befall on Evan as soon as he falls for the two, literally tearing his
home apart and soon his marriage to a horrifying conclusion.
