Knock Knock! The Dave Bautista-led psychological thriller ‘Knock At The Cabin’ is coming to Peacock on March 24th.

Night Shyamalan reimagined film stars Dave Bautista (‘Guardians of the Galaxy‘), Ben Aldridge (‘Spoiler Alert‘), Jonathan Groff (‘The Matrix Resurrections‘), Nikki Amuka-Bird (‘Old‘), Abby Quinn (‘Torn Hearts’), Rupert Grint (‘Servant‘), and newcomer Kristen Cui.

The trailer for the film certainly did its job of putting the audience at unease as four strangers stroll up to the remote vacation cabin of Eric (Jonathan Groff), Andrew (Ben Aldridge), and Wen (Kristen Cui), holding them hostage while asking them to make an unthinkable and difficult decision in order to save the world from its end.
The official synopsis for ‘Knock At The Cabin’ is below:
“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.”
While The Rotten Tomatoes scores from both critics and audiences sit around 65% (67% from critics and 63% from the audience), the one thing everyone can agree on is the performance by Dave Bautista. The wrestler-turned-actor is known for portraying Drax The Destroyer in Marvel’s ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ and can be seen been many titles such as ‘Spectre’, ‘Army of the Dead’, ‘Dune’, ‘Glass Onion’, and more. Bautista plays Leonard in the film, the leader of the group of strangers who arrives at Eric and Andrew’s remote cabin. Quite opposite from Drax, Leonard’s character is pensive and quiet, and Bautista’s captivating performance is definitely something to watch for in this film.
