Abby Quinn, Nikki Amuka-Bird, Dave Bautisa and Rupert Grint in M Night Shyamalan's Knock At The Cabin.Twist-ending master M Night Shyamalan is back in his element, with another supernatural take on a premise that starts off simple enough, before going off the deep end. This time, however, the setting isn't new as Knock at the Cabin is based on Paul Tremblay's novel, The Cabin at the End of the World, but with some deviations to keep things fresh.
However, each time the family refuses to sacrifice a family member, a huge population of humanity dies. Leonard, Adriane, Sabrina and Redmond all talk about their visions as a curse from some great entity who has given them this painful yet important purpose. When it is time to kill one of their associates, they perform a ritual of sorts and the director ensures to include a reflection of bright light, one religious folk often associate with a symbol of holiness, before the gruesome murder takes place.
Ultimately, we can't say for sure which ending we prefer as both the book and the movie deliver a pretty solid ending of their own, but Knock at the Cabin leaves with less shock or heartache as compared to The Cabin at the End of the World simply because the biggest and most shocking death in the book has been changed. Nonetheless, Knock at the Cabin still provides the same lesson as the novel it adapts – that love is strong.
Grint continues his stint with M Night after four seasons as Julian in Servant, and his performance here is somewhat similar to his performance in the Apple TV+ series, so there are no complaints there.
