Mr Night Shyamalan: Master of the non-superficial

Rating: Null/10 (12 September 2004)

This movie left a big impression with me. I watched it yesterday not knowing the twist in the story and expecting something like his film "Signs", only with a horror edge.
I was surprised how this film left me and others thinking and reflecting. Although it has some weaknesses it already belongs to the great movies about human behaviour.
To those who expected a Stephen King-like flick of 2004, sorry!
"The village" has a lot more to think and talk about than 95% of the classic horror and suspense movies, even thrillers.
A classic of its own, together with "Signs" and the "6th sense".
Brilliant.
