The cast also includes Dave Bautista, Nikki Amuka-Bird, Abby Quinn and Rupert Grint.
An official synopsis for Knock At The Cabin reads: “While vacationing at a remote cabin, a young girl and her parents are taken hostage by four armed strangers who demand that the family make an unthinkable choice to avert the apocalypse. With limited access to the outside world, the family must decide what they believe before all is lost.”
The film was written, directed and produced by Shyamalan, based on the 2018 novel The Cabin At The End Of The World by Paul G. Tremblay, and produced by Marc Bienstock and Ashwin Rajan.
M. Night Shyamalan most recently directed Old, a beach-set thriller starring Vicky Krieps, Gael García Bernal, Alex Wolff and more.
In a three-star review of the film, NME wrote: “There’s no denying that Old delivers some genuinely grotesque shocks while keeping us gripped to the finish. Because this is a Shyamalan film, it’s surely no spoiler to point out that there’s an elegant twist coming. So if you have time on your hands, unlike this film’s characters, Old does enough to justify its 108-minute runtime.”
Knock At The Cabin will be released in cinemas on February 4, 2023.
