"The Village" ? Or "Village Of The Damned" ?

Rating: Null/10 (14 August 2004)

This is my second attempt at typing up some comments for this movie. Hopefully the attempt will be fruitful, because I sure didn't think watching the movie was very fruitful.
I have enjoyed M. Night Shyalaman's movies --- up until now. I went to see the movie expecting it to be something it wasn't and I was majorly let down. The movie turned out to be something quite different.
If you want to know, I was expecting it to be a movie about Sasquatch (or Big Foot, or Yeti, or whatever your culture calls it).
Instead, it turns out to be a movie about a group of people tired of living in a world they no longer like to live in and deciding to live a life similar to the Amish, where the founders of "The Village" are keep a dark secret from the rest of the dumb m-asses.
Okay, nice try M. Night, but you should have stuck with the alien movies and the ghost movies and left the monster movies to someone else.
