Knock at the Cabin – Official Trailer The film is M. Night Shyamalan’s newest horror film, starring Dave Bautista, Jonathan Groff, Ben Aldridge and Rupert Grint, as well as Nikki Amuka-Bird. Four strangers find a family in a cabin and force their way in, taking them all hostage, awaiting a decision that could lead to an apocalypse. It’s the kind of unusual that Shyamalan likes to sink his teeth into, emphasizing clichéd statements that will suddenly (if not subtly) come across as convenient lies by the end of the film. I, a total moron who found the Old delightfully entertaining to watch regardless of its pitfalls, will absolutely love Knock at the Cabin. Still, Knock at the Door is based on Paul Tremblay’s The Cabin at the End of the World, so Shyamalan has some solid starting points to lay the groundwork for his thrillers. He’s the writer, director, and one of the producers, so no matter how this movie turns out, it seems almost certain to be exactly the kind of movie Shyamalan wants. Want more io9 news?
