Skinopsis

Loaded with gratuitous nudity, extremely violent sexual assault, bloodshed, drugs and madness, Someone's Knocking at the Door is one insane grindhouse horror throwback. Directed by Chad Ferrin and starring Noah Segan (Deadgirl) and Elina Madison, this mindbending film combines slick visuals, jarring editing and dissonant sounds to create a unique and disturbing experience.

A group of drug-addled, debaucherous medical students get into the wrong experimental drugs and begin to be terrorized by a husband and wife serial killing team who rape their victims to death. Elina Madison, the sexier female half of the murderous duo, offers up her fine full-frontal form multiple times (including in the amazing opening scene) to lure her victims in before her seriously terrifying hubby comes in to bite their ears off and fuck them to death. A few other chicks show off their sweet boobs too and there's a whole mess of gore, a chick gets her entire head shoved into a vagina and all kinds of other demented shit goes down.

Review

Do you like hallucinogenic drugs and violent rape-murder? Well, dear reader, meet John Hopper (Ezra Buzzington) and his lovely wife Wilma (Elina Madison)! This completely psychotic couple from the 1970s would love nothing more than to "f*ck you til' you die." It doesn't matter if you're an overweight, middle-aged police detective or a sultry young med student. Sex is to the Hoppers what green eggs and ham were to Sam I Am. They will use their genitalia for slaughter anytime, anyplace, anyhow with anyone.

When Ray, a young, drug-addled medical student is found having been raped to death in his dorm room, a group of his friends (led by Noah Segan of Cabin Fever 2) attempt to discover the circumstances surrounding his bizarre expiration. Their search leads them to a mysterious hallucinogen called Taldon. In a basement filing room, these rag-tag amateur detectives decide to experiment with this strange drug while reading a particularly disturbing psychological case file on John and Wilma. Little do they know that using Taldon will allow the Hoppers to come back through time and sexually assault each student to their own grisly demise.

A proud grindhouse throwback, Someone's Knocking at the Door is a horror flick that takes great pleasure in being over-the-top. The film plays out like Paul Bartel's lost adaptation of Panic in Needle Park as directed by mid-90s Gregg Araki - with a modest dose of snuff porn thrown in for good measure. So, it's definitely not without some seedy and truly gruesome charms. There are a good handful of believable performances, the story is largely unpredictable and director Chad Ferrin makes some dissonant choices as far as sound and music are concerned. Poppy tracks by the LA-based punk band The Mae Shi accompany some of the most heinous attack scenes - which effectively lightens the mood, for better or worse. The bottom line is: if you're a horror fan with a taste for the unusual and the extreme, John and Wilma won't disappoint you.
