Shyamalamania - SIGNS
Manage episode 382610842 series 2814501
In this bonus edition of The Pod Charles Cinecast, we are back in the world of SHYAMALAMANIA, where we are charting the films of M. Night Shyamalan in special Patreon exclusive episodes over at patreon.com/thepccpodcast – We've unleashed episode to the main timeline, as we decided against doing The X-Files movie, but still wanted to give you some fun "I Want To Believe" spookiness!
Join hosts Jonathan Foster and Fil Freitas, as they venture to the outskirts of Philly, into the farmlands of Bucks County, where a former priest who has lost his faith is tested by the surprise appearance of crop circles on his land. When it is revealed that this isn't just exclusive to his corn field, but is occurring all over the world, the priest, his brother, and his two kids must deal with what looks to be an alien invasion.
Of course, we are talking about M. Night Shyamalan's 2002 sci-fi thriller SIGNS, starring Mel Gibson, Joaquin Phoenix, Rory Culkin and Abigail Breslin. Again, we are faced with another film that has some great ideas, but is loaded with clunky writing, bad acting, and another use of water as a weakness. But this time, M. Night isn't skimping on the Biblical references – as he doubles down, throwing the Bible and tests the audience's faith in him as a filmmaker. Does he pull it off? Well, tune in to find out...
"Swing away Merrill. Merrill... swing away."
