DAY 9.2: Knock Knock
On Peacock

Keanu Reeves is the star of this movie, and it's honestly shocking seeing him in this film. But I think it plays on a really terrifying fear for some men.

A family man is alone at home while his family is away for the weekend. He eventually lets two girls into his house and helps get them a ride home, but they seem interested in a lot more than that.

This is a really tense movie for what it is. As a guy, it's especially terrifying. It takes a situation that is extremely difficult and then makes that situation 1000 times more uncomfortable and terrifying. A tale in absolute hopelessness for Keanu Reeves's character sends him spiraling, being absolutely helpless in his situation. And you can really sympathize with him throughout it, despite what goes on.

Now, Keanu Reeves isn't the world's best actor. I think we all know that. He still does a great job with this movie conveying just how much dread and frustration he has. It was really fun watching him at the beginning of the movie being a father, and you can tell he had a complete blast with it.

The ending builds up to a hug gut punch and while I saw a lot of it coming, it still has an impact. While the ending is slightly open-ended, you're left wondering how the aftermath of it all plays out.

The girls in the movie were also very well-played, and you grow a great hatred for them. They are absolutely despicable and this is even accented in the very end of the movie too just by looking at what they leave behind.

It's a very fun movie, if not a horrifying one for delving into something that I haven't seen many movies dig into. I recommend it.

Rating: 7/10
