Knocking

About This Movie

So, Knocking is an interesting one. It dives into the psyche of Molly, who’s grappling with trauma after a pretty heavy incident. The film creates this tense atmosphere with the constant knocks and screams, which really play into her unraveling mental state. The pacing feels deliberate, almost claustrophobic, as it pulls you deeper into her isolation. There’s a rawness to the performances, especially from the lead, which makes her distress almost palpable. The practical effects are minimal but effective, leaning more on the psychological horror angle rather than relying on gore. It’s distinctive in how it wraps you in this unsettling world, where you’re never quite sure what’s real or not. Definitely a film that lingers in your mind.

Psychological tension builds throughout. · Minimalist practical effects enhance the realism. · Focus on character-driven storytelling.
