Knock Knock is a nasty bit of business, and fans of Roth are not likely to be disappointed. There's a monologue he delivers late in the third act in which he likens the tryst the three shared as “free pizza” that will likely be a perennial favorite on YouTube. As things spiral out of control, his increasingly desperate manner is never that convincing. Reeves, on the other hand, doesn't quite fare so well. Roth wisely draws out the drama, and both Izzo and de Armas strike the right chord between sexy and psycho. Tension and escalation ensue to an overdetermined ending. Knock Knock is a play written by American author, cartoonist and playwright Jules Feiffer. Evan wakes up the next day to find the girls making a mess of the house and refusing to leave. The pair, Genesis (Izzo) and Bel (de Armas), eventually seduce Evan in a threesome, which then unleashes all kinds of problems. Knock, knock, Natalie said symbolically when Ana didn't immediately notice her. Evan, nice guy that he is, takes them in while they wait for an Uber driver, drying their clothes and making small talk. Knock Knock Marketing does all things digital.

It’s quite possible that Eli Roth is aware of that history in his latest video nasty, Knock Knock, but I’m not holding my breath.
