Eli Roth's home invasion thriller Knock Knock was inspired by the 1977 exploitation movie by Peter S.Traynor titled Death Game - here's how. Director Eli Roth's Knock Knock was inspired by a the 1977 movie Death Game by Peter S. Traynor, which is considered incredibly violent and exploitative.
Based on the 1977 film "Death Game," "Knock Knock" is a disturbing, erotic thriller that follows Evan Webber (Keanu Reeves), a successful architect and family man whose wife and kids leave town for the weekend.
Knock Knock is a remake of Death Game (shot in 1974, not released until 1977), which was directed by Peter S. Traynor and starred Sondra Locke and Colleen Camp. All three individuals had a hand in the production of Knock Knock, while Camp also had a cameo in the newer film.
Husband and father Evan Webber (Keanu Reeves) is home alone working during a storm when two ladies (Lorenza Izzo, Ana de Armas) knock on his door asking for directions. Both women are wet and cold so Evan invites them into his house to wait for a taxi but they soon seduce them into a threesome.
Knock Knock is a pretty flimsy erotic thriller, but thanks to Reeves' oaken obliviousness it's also got a few moments of deliciously trashy fun. As a piece of social satire, "Knock Knock" winds up being not just toothless but anticlimactic. October 9, 2015 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…
No, the film is very much a work of fiction – adapted from the novel The Cabin at the End of the World by Paul Tremblay (although Shyamalan has made some major changes to the book's ending in his film).

The married couple at the center of the conflict, Andrew and Eric, may briefly kiss in one scene, but that's the extent of any sexuality in the film. No scantily clad women, bare-chested men or love scenes.
This found footage offering was originally known as 'Haunting at 1666' before inexplicably being re-titled 'Knock Knock 2' - a sequel to a production it is completely unconnected with.
Knock at the Cabin is middle-of-the-road fare for Shyamalan. It doesn't reach his directorial heights, but is well above his lows. If nothing else, it's still refreshing to see a director consistently swinging for the fences. Knock at the Cabin isn't completely fruitless, however it's also unremarkable.
The Knock at the Cabin ending sees Leonard, Redmond, Sabrina, and Adriane dead, with Andrew still firm in his decision to save his family, regardless of the alleged apocalypse happening around them.
This isn't M. Night's most frightening movie or his creepiest, although it might be his saddest. Knock at the Cabin is more interested in testing the bonds of family than he is making you jump in your seat. But if you're scared of crying, feel free to bump that up to a 10.
It's suspenseful enough, but the tension it generates is the unpleasant kind, particularly in the way it exposes a very young character to some truly terrifying sights and experiences, only to wave away any possible effect on her.
