Summaries

Returning to the medical school where they were test subjects decades ago, a pair of outrageously twisted serial killers use shockingly brutal sex acts to start killing off a group of drugged-out med students.

The shocking news of the gruesome, sex-related homicide of medical student, Ray Harris, spreads like wildfire in the Linda Vista Community Hospital. Was it a deviant S&M game gone wrong or is there, indeed, a deranged serial killer lurking in the campus? As the police investigation continues, a strange connection between the highly experimental hallucinogen, Taldon, and the peculiar 1973 case of John and Wilma Hopper emerges, while Ray's friends, start being stalked by a pair of insane sociopaths who have only one intention: to ravish them to death. And, before long, warm, bright-red blood will flow. Is there an escape when the enemy lives inside one's head?—Nick Riganas

In this genre-defying grind-house throwback, a group of drug-addled, sexually deviant medical students are systematically terrorized by Wilma and John Hopper. The Hoppers, serial murderers and rapists, mysteriously return from the 1970s, and bring horrifying psychedelia with them. With comedy, subversion, satire and true gore, the students must face escalating attacks, shocking circumstances and visceral disgust.—Anonymous

Synopsis

A totally wild trip, SOMEONES KNOCKING AT THE DOOR is a cult horror movie sensation featuring over the top gore, depraved sexual acts, freaky dream sequences, and hysterical moments of humor. The plot may evoke classic 70s horror: a group of drug-taking students find themselves being brutally slayed one by one by a pair of sex crazed serial killers on campus. But its in its execution where this film shines with originality: totally bizarre kills, whacked out hallucinations, hilarious dialogue between the cast led by Noah Segan (BRICK, DEADGIRL), plus a dark mystery slowly being uncovered, all set to the tunes of a kick-ass rock and roll soundtrack. SOMEONES KNOCKING is a refreshingly disturbing and funny horror movie that will blow your mind, but in a good way.Adam Lopez
