Lionsgate pulled out the checkbook for Eli Roth’s Knock Knock (read our review), which premiered this past weekend at the ongoing Sundance Film Festival.
According to Variety, the pic sold for a whopping $3M, making the Keanu Reeves starrer one of the biggest genre pickups at a festival in years.
Eli Roth (Cabin Fever, Hostel, The Green Inferno) directed the pic, which sounds like a remake of Peter S. Traynor’s 1977 Death Game. In it, Reeves stars as a married man who lets two attractive women into his home while his family is away, which turns out to be a bad decision.
Lionsgate recently released the must-see Keanu Reeves action flick John Wick.
