M. Night Shyamalan (signs, Unbreakable, The Sixth Sense), The Director Who Brought You The World's Greatest Thrillers On Dvd, Now Creates His Most Thought-provoking Triumph Yet ... Breaking International Records And Dazzling Audiences Around The Globe! The Village Is A Smart, Edge-of-your-seat Chiller Crawling With Terrifying Surprises And Frightening Twists And Turns. An Isolated, Tight-knit Community Lives In Mortal Fear Of An Oppressive Evil Inhabiting The Forbidden Forest Just Beyond Their Tiny Village. So Frightening That No One Ventures Into The Woods ... Until One Villager Dares To Face The Unknown. With Unforgettable Performances From Joaquin Phoenix, Sigourney Weaver, William Hurt, Adrien Brody, And Newcomer Bryce Dallas Howard, This Powerful Motion Picture Is One Of Hollywood's Best Psychological Thrillers And Ranks With The Best Of Hitchcock!

Even when his trademark twist-ending formula wears worrisomely thin as it does in The Village, M. Night Shyamalan is a true showman who knows how to serve up a spookfest. He's derailed this time by a howler of a "surprise" lifted almost directly from "A Hundred Yards Over the Rim," an episode of The Twilight Zone starring Cliff Robertson that originally aired in 1961. Even if you're unfamiliar with that Rod Serling scenario, you'll have a good chance of guessing the surprise, which ranks well below The Sixth Sense and Signs on Shyamalan's shock-o-meter. That leaves you to appreciate Shyamalan's proven strengths, including a sharp eye for fear-laden compositions, a general sense of unease, delicate handling of fine actors (alas, most of them wasted here, save for Bryce Dallas Howard in a promising debut), and the cautious concealment of his ruse, which in this case involves a 19th-century village that maintains an anxious truce with dreadful creatures that live in the forbidden woods nearby. Will any of this take anyone by genuine surprise? That seems unlikely, since Emperor Shyamalan has clearly lost his clothes in The Village, but it's nice to have him around to scare us, even if he doesn't always succeed. --Jeff Shannon
