Nastoletnia Chloe, opuszczona przed laty przez rodzinę, dorasta w sierocińcu. Po niespodziewanej wizycie swej matki, dziewczyna powraca w okolicę, w której się wychowała. Wraz z przyjacielem dociera do tajemniczej posiadłości, o której krążyły mroczne opowieści. „Zastukaj raz, by ją obudzić, dwa, by z martwych wstała”... Według legendy, dom zamieszkuje okrutny demon, znany ze słowiańskiej mitologii. Dziewczyna postanawia zmierzyć się z mitem, otwierając drzwi, które na zawsze miały pozostać zamknięte. Aby przeżyć, będzie musiała stoczyć walkę nie tylko w świecie rzeczywistym, ale również w przerażającym miejscu, z którego pochodzi wcielone zło. (Forum Film PL)

I must confess that I really underestimated this film, but the final impression is strong to the point that it surprised me. It already gets points from its plot arc, in the centre of which is a complex (for the standards of the genre) relationship between a mother and her daughter, whom she had abandoned years before. In spooky and slasher movies the relationships between the characters are usually simple, so kudos for that. For almost the entire film I was telling myself what a shame it was that I would have to criticise it for building this ambitious arc on the skeleton of an awfully clichéd and silly horror tale with many lapses in the script. But much to my wonder, things turned out differently and I remained pleasantly surprised that it wasn’t as silly as I had expected. Add to that the fact that the scary scenes are good to excellent, and we do have a nice, little pleasant horror movie here. Recommended for genre fans, the rest can ignore it.

The Brits don't always make good horror films, but with Don't Knock Twice I was honored that they managed to strike a very good chord, despite the fact that on the face of it this is a cheaper film. That doesn't affect the film at all, because it has a good atmosphere and can make you squirm at least a little while watching it. That's definitely something I expect from a good horror movie.
