The Plot…

Eric (Groff),  Andrew (Aldridge) and their little daughter Wren (Cui) are vacationing at a remote cabin deep in the woods.  When four people with weapons take them prisoner, Eric and Andrew are told if they don’t willingly kill a member of their family, all humanity will die.  The clock is ticking.

Thoughts (beware of spoilers)…

M. Night Shyamalan has a cameo in a commercial for an air fryer that plays on a tv in the background of a scene.

The four people who show up at the cabin represent the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

I continue to be impressed with the variety of roles that Dave Bautista takes on and excels at.

As you watch Knock at the Cabin, you can’t help, but wonder what you would do in the same situation.

Knock at the Cabin (2023) rates 5 of 5 stars.
