'Knock Knock' takes jokes to a whole new disturbing level

Knock Knock is an erotic thriller by Eli Roth of Cabin Fever, Hostel and Green Inferno fame. Just as the title suggests, Knock Knock is a joke, and in this case, a sick comedy.

Set over the course of 24-hours, it tells a story of a devoted husband and father, Evan, played by Keanu Reeves, who is left home alone for the weekend when his wife and two kids go off for Father’s Day holiday.

Evan is a workaholic architect, who has a dream of becoming a famous DJ.

Happily married with a beautiful wife, a son and a daughter and a big house in an elite neighborhood, Evan was shown as coming to terms to not going on the family trip due to work.

As a couple, Evan and his artiste wife are successful and like any other married couples, they are always missing out on intimacy because of children and work.

Knock Knock started off by painting the picture perfect, loving family and match made in heaven couple every boy and girl dream of. And this is calm before the storm.

And later, bidding farewell to his wife and kids, later that night during a storm, whilst Evan was focusing hard on his work, he receives a surprise visit.

Two stranded young women, all sexy and soaking wet unexpectedly knock on his door for help. They claim to have lost their way looking for a friend’s house to party.

Like a a true gentleman, for Evan, what starts out as a kind gesture results in a dangerous seduction and a psychopath cat-and-mouse deadly game.

Lorenza Izzo a.k.a Mrs. Eli Roth and Ana de Amas played the two young seductress, who are all out for feminism revenge - teaching cheating husband the hard lesson on infidelity.

As usual, Roth entices his audience and fans with skillful creation of tension building, gore and sometimes good trashy kind of fun. It feels like watching a modern day Fatal Attraction for the selfie-loving generation.

Some might find this film silly and sluggish and some, like me, what’s not to like about Keanu Reeves in a threesome action?

However, this has to be said, like Roth's last movie, Green Inferno, our censorship board must have carried out their duties wonderfully - as all of the erotic including the light 'teasing' scenes are chopped off from the views of eager and curious fan of either Keanu or the two hot gals - Izzo and Amas.
