The Night They Knocked

A waste of time i strongly recommend to not watch this garbage.

This movie starts off pretty slow but once it gets going it's truly disturbing. Frightening in many parts and the production values are good. The acting was hit and miss but that's to be expected in these types of movies. The only thing that hurts this film is the abrupt ending which... well, I won't give anything away and will let you judge for yourself. Overall, decent but needed another ten minutes in the finale to really finish the film on a better note.

This movie had such a slow start and by slow I mean at a snails pace with bad acting. It did get a little more interesting after the first kill but relatively was a boring movie with a little gore.

The movie has a bunch of flaws. They bring up Derrick's ex-con history/criminal background so much it's obnoxious. They act like they're sitting with a terrorist over a young kid "stealing a car".

The lights going out halfway through made some of the film hard to track narratively but it still works.

The acting is pretty goofy and the characters are one dimensional.

That said; it's entertaining. It's not boring and it's fairly gripping. The deaths accompanied by some decent ADR sound effects are pretty brutal. It does not pan out the way you think it will and then last act brings this completely hopeless and bleak tone to the film and I actually like the way it ends. Watch it. It's worth the watch.

It was pretty scary and had some memorable kills in it. Nothing really groundbreaking but very watchable. I enjoyed it overall. If you like The Strangers, you will probably like this.
