REVIEWS:
““Knocking” joins a long line of genre precedents, from “Repulsion” through to “Hereditary,” in which trauma is the true bogeyman. Which isn’t to say, either, that the relentless knock-knock-knocking is all in her head. The film is too embedded in the traditions of gaslight cinema for audiences to easily join the authorities on that dismissive track.” www.variety.com

“Not only was it compelling to watch, it was also heartbreaking because Molly was such an easy character to root for. This wasn’t because she was a particularly deep character (nor was the film for that matter). Rather, it was because of Milocco’s vulnerable powerhouse of a performance as she put all of herself on screen.” www.keithlovesmovies.com

“Running a tight 78 minutes, Kempff keeps things moving and the first-person camera angles get mileage out of Milocco’s tragic performance, but Knocking overstays its welcome, barely amounting to much outside the last five minutes where the film attempts to circumvent what came before. By the time that happens, you’ll already be checked out and ready to go home.” www.theonlycritic.com
