An amazing example of why not to abuse nature.

Rating: 5/10 (21 January 2009)

The Happening is the most original, and most entertaining and pleasing apocalyptic thriller I've ever seen. This amazing film stars Mark Whalberg and Zooey Deschanel as Elliot and Alma Moore a couple who in the midst of there marital problems hear about strange occurrences that have been happening in New York city, people out of nowhere start killing themselves left and right and with no reason or explanation. Soon enough it hits everywhere in the northwestern area, entire groups of people are turning into suicidal maniacs and nobody know why. As Elliot and Alma are trying to out run this mysterious plague, they start to realize that this might not be what everyone believes it is, it might actually be something no one on this planet is meant to understand, something that cannot be explained by normal means, something that must be witnessed to believe, there's an event occurring. And it's happening right now in this film. The Happening blends Shyamalan's unique style of film making with eyeball freezing horror that you just have to see to believe. I very highly recommended this amazing film.
