‘Don’t Knock Twice’ Trailer Doesn’t Do the Film Justice (Exclusive)
Another witch movie is coming, but this time you’re going to see a whole lot of her.
Bloody Disgusting has the exclusive trailer premiere for Don’t Knock Twice, directed by Caradog James, arriving on VOD platforms February 3, 2017 through IFC Midnight. There’s lot of cool footage in it, but unlike most of its ilk, there are no spoilers. What you should need to know is that Don’t Knock Twice has some absolutely freakish visuals, including unbelievable effects work that make the witch come to life. If you’ve felt robbed of seeing the witch in other films, this one is going to deliver the goods in spades.
Is it any good? Well, our very own Luiz reviewed the film, which stars genre fav Katee Sackhoff (Oculus, Riddick, Battlestar Galactica), calling it “a charming and well-crafted thriller.”
“Don’t Knock Twice follows a guilt-ridden mother (Sackhoff) who wants to reconnect with the daughter (Boynton) she was forced to place into care. To save her estranged daughter, she has to uncover the terrifying truth behind the urban legend of a vengeful, demonic witch.”
Also featured are Lucy Boynton (Miss Potter, Ballet Shoes, Mo) and Nick Moran (Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows). James (The Machine, Little White Lies) directed from a script by writing duo Mark Huckerby and Nick Ostler, whose credits include Howl. The film is produced by Red & Black Films’ John Giwa-Amu (The Machine, The Call Up) and Seymour Films’ Claire Moorsom.
Here’s an exclusive look at a cool piece of alternate art that’s got a classic storybook book vibe to it.

Jennifer E. Montgomery makes her feature directorial debut from a script she co-wrote with director of photography Andrew Davis, inspired by Montgomery’s first-hand experience with tragedy involving her best friend.
“Months before the incident, there were signals that her world was unraveling,” says Montgomery. “I could feel the pressure building, though I didn’t know what form it would take. I never could have known what violence would come, and I certainly never imagined making a film about it.”
Austin Stowell (“NCIS: Origins”), Suraj Sharma (Happy Death Day 2U), Mojean Aria (Reminiscence), Amol Shah (“For All Mankind”), and Zenobia Shroff (“Ms. Marvel”) round out the cast.
Smoke Jumper Films and Mango Monster Productions produce in association with Catchlight Studios (Heretic, The Blackening).
This Tempting Madness is rated R for “language, violence/bloody images, and brief sexuality.”
