It’s also part of a change in direction in Roth’s genre career, which next sees him helming the big-ticket giant-shark movie Meg. Traynor (who also directed) and Larry Spiegel and stars Colleen Camp and Sondra Locke are all credited producers on Knock Knock. The film is a semi-official remake of 1977’s Death Game, whose producers Peter S. The following morning, they suddenly turn on Evan, subjecting him to a series of physical and mental tortures. Two sexy young women, Genesis (Lorenza Izzo, Roth’s frequent star and now his real-life wife) and Bel (Ana de Armas) turn up at his door, at first claiming to seek help but then seducing him into a steamy three-way. In Knock Knock, which Roth scripted with Nicolás López and Guillermo Amoedo, and debuts in theaters and on-demand from Lionsgate Premiere, Reeves plays Evan Webber, a family man left alone in his luxurious suburban house on a rainy night while his wife and children are on vacation. The filmmaker sat down with FANGORIA to talk about the film, its cast and a monologue that bids to become a cult classic. Leaving the gore of Hostel and The Green Inferno behind, Eli Roth ups the eroticism in his new thriller Knock Knock, with Keanu Reeves as his latest onscreen victim. Steve Jobs is the only film that has a significant chance of earning some measure of mainstream success.Editor's Note: This was originally published for FANGORIA on August 14, 2014, and we're proud to share it as part of The Gingold Files. This is not a particularly deep week for limited releases. On the other hand, The Forbidden Room, Victoria, and Yakuza Apocalypse are more interesting in my mind. In fact, its reviews and buzz suggest it could be a player during Awards Season. Steve Jobs is the only film that has a significant chance of earning some measure of mainstream success. Limited and VOD Releases: Steve Jobs and Killer Frogs The second best average of the week was $16,543, which was earned by Goodbye Mr. In fact, it is nearly double the previous best, Sicario. The film scored more than $500,000 in just four theaters for an average of $130,381, which is the best per theater average for a film released in 2015. Steve Jobs was expected to be a hit in limited release, but not this big of a hit. The competition for Pick of the Week is also not very deep with Ant-Man coming out on top. Beyond that, there's mostly TV on DVD releases. It looks amazing, which is why it led this years Holiday Gift Guide, but I'm not sure there are a lot of people who will be willing to spend $200 on a box set when they likely own all or most of the movies. The third best-selling release, according to, is the Marvel Cinematic Universe: Phase Two Box Set. However, the competition for those two films is much, much weaker. It's rare you get a one-two punch like that on top. The top two releases are Ant-Man and Minions, which made more than $500 million and $1 billion globally, respectively. It is both a good week and a bad week on the home market.
