It looks interesting. Two of my favorite M. Night Shyamalan movies are Signs and The Sixth Sense.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Lol. I get why this is scary, but take a step back and think about this, the fear of the movie is . . . getting old. Albeit more quickly than normal, but still as a horror flick? Kinda funny but I suppose apropos for our current state of society.

Wasn't scary at all. It was good, but just another great concept and then ending it just to fast or unfinished. Typical Shyamalan ending..

 

[Stout]

Someone told me the characters kept narrating the plot ad nauseum, that they lost count of the times characters would say stuff like people seem to be aging fast. Blargh.

I just watched it and totally this. It was so bad it could of been an SNL skit. Even in high intense situations one of the characters would just start explaining what was going on. It was pretty cringy. The movie was okay… but the dialogue as a whole was just bad.

Has this guy done anything since Signs that was worth a squirt of sour owl poop?

The Visit is a great underrated gem and Split was pretty damn good too.

This... this is a flick you go see really high with your friends when you’re 16 years old and obnoxiously make fun of the movie, while simultaneously making everyone in the theater miserable.

A stoner's Mystery Science Theater 3000?

The Visit was a fantastic thriller/horror. Probably one of the best of since 2000.

And Split was probably James McAvoy's best performance in his career.

I think both are among the best movies Shyamalan has made. Both are better than Signs, which was too religious oriented for my liking.

 

[Covert Rain]

I have to agree. Visit and especially Split were good. I am also throwing out there Devil since he was one of the writers.

Yeah. Devil was solid. He just didn’t direct it so I don’t put it with the others.

 

[Bada0Bing]

A somewhat neat idea, but there isn't much of a film here. It would have been a great story for an episode of the 80's show Creepshow. I think those were 30-40 min.

Pretty boring for a "horror" film.

 

[AsUpRoDiGy]

Would've been much more enjoyable if it had a better ending. Interesting concept, though. C+
