This week, we heard a knock and we answered. It was M. Night Shymalan's new feature film, Knock at the Cabin starring Dave Bautista, Johnathan Groff, Ben Aldridge, and Rupert Grint. Based on the book, The Cabin at the End of the World, a couple is faced with the impossible choice of sacrificing a member of their family or risk the apocalypse.

So did Shymalan regain his glory or is this another loss in a recent string of failures?

Plus, Brandon has a chance at closing the gap this week as he gives us a "difficult" codeword this week. Will anyone be able to crack it or will Brandon rise by stumping us all?
