Ygraine Hackett-Cantabrana Moving Pictures Film Club the folk horror element of The Knocking feels underdeveloped and could have done with room to breathe; but when the action does get going the imagery is effective, leading to a nightmarish conclusion. Rated: 3/5 Jul 15, 2024 Full Review Kat Hughes THN A noteworthy debut, The Knocking is a well-made marriage of familial tensions, secrets, and scares. Rated: 3/5 Mar 30, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Hugo S After the tragic death of their parents, three siblings reunite in their childhood home to discuss the selling of the property. The secluded house brings memories of a past haunted by childhood abuse. The surrounding forest triggers a sinister behaviour in the siblings, culminating in a tragic event. "The Knocking" focuses on the horrors of a family coming to terms with their traumas. The movie uses folklore and pagan themes to create a plot depicting human nature taking revenge on those who threaten its existence. The final act is unimpressive as it lacks the boiling point typically expected in a slow-burn horror movie. Dull and formulaic! Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/07/25 Full Review Audience Member Great building of tension and unveiling of dark family secrets. Ending a little weak Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/06/24 Full Review Read all reviews
