Signs

Rating: 5/10 (18 December 2006)

When I saw it in the cinema, I thought it was one of the creepiest films ever, and made me jump quite a lot, that's without the flashbacks of course. From director M. Night Shyamalan (The Sixth Sense, also appearing in the film as Ray Peddy) the story revolves around ex-Reverand Graham Hess (Mel Gibson) with his farm and family, his brother Merril (Joaquin Phoenix, brother of River), son Morgan (Rory Culkin, brother of Macaulay), daughter Bo (Abigail Breslin). His crops have been taken down, and from a birds-eye-view, they could see that something is making "signs", or crop circles. As they wonder further about this incident, they later get closer and closer to other life on the farm and in other parts of the Bucks county. Also starring Cherry Jones as Officer Paski and Patricia Kalember as Colleen Hess. The scenes in the basement were the most tense in the cinema, the flashbacks to Graham's wife's death get in the way, and the small moments of comedy fit in okay, a good science fiction thriller. Worth watching!
