While there, things temporarily take a dark turn as soon as 4 strangers hang the family hostage and insist they sacrifice one of their very own to prevent the apocalypse.

Where was 'Knock at the Cabin' filmed?

Despite most of his motion pictures taking place in or round the Philadelphia space, filmmaker M. Night Shyamalan switched things up and filmed Knock at the Cabin in New Jersey. He has filmed in the Garden State in the past — The Village was filmed in Pedricktown, and a few scenes from Season Three of Servant were shot in Ocean City.

When it comes to Knock at the Cabin, most important photography principally came about in Burlington County, on location in Tabernacle Township. According to the Pine Barrens Tribune, a piece of belongings in the house, "reportedly owned by the father of the current mayor, Samuel R. Moore III," was used as the environment for the film (perhaps the titular cabin!)

Filming also happened at Evergreen Dairy Bar, a old fashioned diner and ice cream shop positioned on Route 70 in nearby Southampton; it was remodeled into "Angie's Roadside Diner" for the production. This brought about relatively a bit of pleasure among the locals, with many snapping pictures of the set and sharing them on social media.

“Southampton Township is proudly making our movie debut at our very own Evergreen Dairy Bar!” the township wrote on its Facebook page.

Paul Tremblay printed all the deets about the 'Knock at the Cabin' set.

In an interview with Inverse, best-selling horror author Paul Tremblay dished about his revel in visiting the set of Knock at the Cabin. He informed the outlet that the manufacturing crew "built two cabins" for the movie.

"For exterior shots, there was a cabin in the woods somewhere just over the Pennsylvania–New Jersey line," Paul added. "And for the interior shots, they built a second cabin inside a warehouse. It was so stunningly beautiful that it hurt my New England heart. I was like, 'Man, so they’re just gonna tear this down. Can I take this cabin and put it on a lake somewhere in New England?'"

The author continued, "It was explained to me that in the warehouse, they can better control the lighting instead of having to wait around for sunset or for dusk. I cannot tell you how realistic it was to be inside the cabin with lighting as if it were late afternoon. It was like my brain was being fooled. It felt like late afternoon but outside the window was just a concrete warehouse."

Knock at the Cabin hits theaters on Friday, Feb. 3, 2023.
