CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Caleb Koestler (Chandler Canterbury) is awakend by a mysterious stranger and sees a terrifying vision.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
A time capsule containing a cryptic message about the coming apocalypse sends a concerned father on a race to prevent the horrific events from unfolding as predicted in this sci-fi thriller directed by Alex Proyas (Dark City) and starring Nicolas Cage. 1958: As the dedication ceremony for a newly constructed elementary school gets under way, a time capsule containing student drawings of the future is buried on the grounds and scheduled to be unearthed on the school's 50th anniversary. Instead of submitting a drawing, however, one little girl scribbles a series of seemingly random numbers on her paper before it is buried. Fifty years later, the time capsule is unearthed for a new generation of students to examine. Young Caleb Koestler (Chandler Canterbury) is one of those students. The mysterious sequence of numbers falling into his possession, Caleb takes the paper to his father, Professor John Koestler (Cage), for examination. Studying the numbers, Professor Koestler soon discovers that they aren't random at all, but an encoded message containing the precise dates, death tolls, and coordinates of every major disaster since the time capsule was buried. Not only that, but the document also indicates that there will be three more such events, the last of which indicates a doomsday scenario that appears directly tied to Professor Koestler and Caleb. His desperate plea to authorities falling on deaf ears, Professor Koestler realizes that his only hope for preventing more lives from being lost is to take personal action. Though the author of the prophecies is no longer living, Professor Koestler is eventually able to track down her daughter Diana Wayland (Rose Byrne), and granddaughter Abby, who reluctantly agree to aid in the investigation. As the final date on the list draws near, Professor Koestler enters into a frantic race against time to prevent destruction on a global scale, in the process realizing that in order to save millions of lives, he may have to make the ultimate sacrifice.

The stranger just says, "We'll be waiting for the 'we outside' text. See ya, and be there or be square.

[@commandercritic9036]

If we’re taking these things to be an alien species watching over us, then it’s possible that they didn’t have any other way to communicate, we honestly have no idea what an alien species will be like, and their methods of communication could be entirely different from ours, particularly if their as advanced as this movie makes them out to be, in which we see them communicating psionically, an entirely different level of communication that we couldn’t even begin to understand or comprehend The numbers and visions really were the only way they were going to get this message across

[@dontcare7086]

Lol that is my main problem with this movie. The aliens didn't have to be so cryptic and creepy. Showing up in the middle of the night and standing over a kid is the worst way to earn their trust.

[@thisisaname5589]

@@dontcare7086 On the one hand, if I wanted to be obnoxious, I could argue that the aliens don't really care about earning their trust. They can do pretty much whatever they want, they're eldritch space monsters. On the other hand, it is pretty silly writing.

I noticed after rewatching this movie that this scene is very effective for a few reasons; a) it’s always impactful in a horror film when something/someone intrudes on a bedroom, a place that’s supposed to be safe and b) the Stranger enters the room at the same angle the boys father does several times in the film, foreshadowing that the Strangers will be filling the role of the children’s guardians later on. I’ve got mixed feelings about this film as a whole but Alex Proyas knows how to tell a story

[@kathmeowing1230]

​@@user-ig8vm1ns4tOld.

[@Joey7Z7Horror]

I absolutely agree on that last sentence. I can’t say I had the same experience but that’s only because I am gifted in this regard but to call it horror is accurate. As a horror specialist, I have a very strong tolerance to horror but I can still feel when a movie itself is naturally scary. Knowing is a movie I desperately wanna consider horror because it’s just that good of a movie. It’s definitely predominately a Sci-Fi Thriller but thriller is honestly a cheater genre. I can be comfortable, albeit unstable, calling Knowing horror because it is the HORROR kind of thriller but if it means I can rightfully claim the film in the genre, I’d be totally happy to. It is another great specially genre-bending horror flick.

Year 2007 to 2009 movies are somewhat bizzare years for me (take that with a grain of salt). Firstly, these are really special years to me being a teenager at the time. But yeah going back, specifically you got this movie, then "I Am Legend", "2012", "The Day The Earth Stood Still", "Cloverfield", etc. where it makes you wonder "where in the world did the writers get their ideas?" and makes you think about life twice. Both eerily disturbing but full of foods for thought. Now that I'm a full grown adult and re-watching these films, rather than getting afraid (including those lil jump scares LOL), I simply take it as a reminder that, first, it's a film. Second, it's a chance for me to enjoy life and sunshines until the day comes I either cease to exist or the world I'm in ceases to exist.
