Critics Consensus

Knock Knock brings a lot of talent to bear on its satirical approach to torture horror, but not effectively enough to overcome its repetitive story or misguidedly campy tone.

Alison Willmore

BuzzFeed News

Knock Knock, which is about two women wreaking havoc on a married man, aspires to be titillating. But more than anything, both persistently, persuasively angle to make you angry.

New York Magazine/Vulture

The characters are driven by convenience, not behavior, and their actions seem like they've been manhandled into place to make the plot work.

TheWrap

"Director Eli Roth's "Knock Knock," a remake of the 1977 exploitation picture "Death Game," sometimes plays more like a comedy than like the grungy thriller that inspired it, but that's often all to the good."

Obviously, the character abuse doesn’t just reflect the physical abuse of Chilean workers, as it’s physical too — almost as if the filmmakers were conscious of what they were doing to our cinema.

Deep Focus Review

Roth's lowest-common-denominator approach reduces a primal, campy idea into nothing more than a dull homage to an exploitation flick.

Rated: 2/4

...sonically tortured by techno and stabbed with a fork, Reeves is game for the kitsch carnage that ensues.

Rated: 3.5/5

As someone in Law Enforcement, they'd be arrested. First they assaulted someone and had legit fingerprints EVERYWHERE. It was cruel and unusual punishment to watch.

That escalated quickly! It's a cautionary tale about allowing scantily clad women (who lie about their age,) into your house if you're a husband and father. That was his first and fatal mistake. Too bad that the wife and kids had such a mess to come home to...literally.

A rather crazy film that simply aims to be unpleasant. It actually succeeds, but it's not the kind of horror I like. This is basically an S&M film with a lot of sexual content and not a classic horror film as one might expect. The plot seems to be less important and was not very convincing. At least Keanu Reeves is in it.
