Knock Knock is a horror film that combines fear with revenge, hate with justice and responsibility with sacrifice. The bible says an "Eye for an Eye." Rico was just a big fun loving son of a hard working neighborhood business man. The problem is his dad is an undertaker. Some popular high school Students thought he was weird because of it. Rico kept to himself...

Just perfect...
Absolutely Brilliant!
A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.
In Knock Knock, the sins of the fathers are visited on the children, as a disfigured maniac slaughters the kids of those accidentally responsible for his terrible injuries.When a slasher features an excess of mean spirited gore and plenty of curvaceous beauties (including some topless nudity during the obligatory shower scene), I can usually make allowances for a derivative plot and dreadful performances, but so abysmal is the camera-work and editing, mostly during Knock Knock's all important death scenes, that I can find little forgiveness in my heart on this occasion. With horrible 'wobbly cam' and that annoying flickering effect that accompanies rapid cuts in so many contemporary horror films, I soon found my patience wearing thin.It's a shame, because if writer/director Joseph Ariola had just kept it simple, rather than trying to be 'stylish', his film could have been a whole lot more enjoyable—a good old-fashioned, unpretentious stalk 'n' slash that doesn't wimp out on the splatter (victims are repeatedly stabbed, burnt, eviscerated and dismembered). As it stands, there's a good chance that the erratic execution of the film's kills will induce a seizure, which isn't really what we want, is it?
I know people are gonna bash me for giving this a decent review,, but you know what,, I really don't care what everyone thinks.. I liked the movie and that is what matter's... a killer is systematically killing of local teens one by one,, and it has something to do with their father's occupation,,, sure it's not gonna win any awards,,, sure it's n ot the best acted,, and yes it's cheesy,, sleezy,, skanky girls, and all that,, but what's wrong with half naked college girls running around on screen,, the kids are so annoying you are actually wishing that their death would come sooner than later. I liked the movie because of the twist near the end,, but I'm sure most of you didn't make it that far,, altogether I'm going a 6 for this movie,, because iut was more than what I expected.
Everywhere I seen a review of this movie it was always the same, this is bad. So I was ready to view it, only one problem, not available over here but fortunately a good friend offered me a full uncut version. Only 1 minute into the movie I already knew something was terrible wrong. The first girl murdered was dressed sexy. Not that I have a problem with that but mostly that attracts more then the gore. Anyway, the good part of the movie is indeed the gore. It's not all in front of the camera but they really show the result. It's gory but easy to take. But there is of course the movie itself. The acting of some is really bad. For example the interrogation is a big laugh, she never impresses me as a copper. And the killer is a cheap version of Leatherface, his clothes, mask and hair is a copy! Furtheron they also listened what they did with Evil Dead and Nightmare on Elm Street, I mean the children singing chants. Some scene's are too long, could have edited it better. And some scene's had nothing to do with the movie, for example when one of the guys goes home with his girlfriend her sister opens the door, what we have next is nice to see but has nothing to do with the script, and a lot of girls show their body, clothed, in an explicit way. I told before, I have no problem with that if that doesn't let you forget the storyline. I gave it a 3 just for the gore, could have been much better...
Someone starts killing a bunch of kids on campus. Who could it be? Any of the characters we know? This is a slasher flick that toys with the whodunnit aspect but doesn't really exploit it. One mentally challenged character is presented as the only candidate- but an unlikely one. While the killings go on, a pair of cops are on the killer's trail. Problem is the the story is told from the perspective of the cops, who aren't particularly engaging or interesting. The victims are all to some extent annoying and none of them stand out or get to have a major role. The killer himself, some well dressed fellow, is characterized mostly by wearing a bunch of rags on his face, looked like newspaper pieces actually. But he's not scary enough. Again, the movie doesn't spend enough time on him, on his preparations for killings, etc. That said, the death scenes are excellent, very gory and explicit at times. There a little bit of nudity, too, that makes sure it stays above the belt.As it turns out, our killer has good reasons for his mission. It as explained near the end. Overall, worth a rent for fans of horror who want to see some cool death scenes. There is a story there but it's told in a way that's just not engaging.
