Description: Manoj Nelliyattu, "M. Night" Shyamalan has had one of Hollywood's most interesting stories that could well have come from one of his scripts. After two independent movies which amounted to little success, Shyamalan set the world afire with 1999's The Sixth Sense, which took critics off guard, gathering six Academy Award nominations and rolling to an almost $700 million box office take, making it the most successful horror film all the way until 2017, when It finally knocked it off. But after a financial and critical success such as that, where do you go from there? Join myself, Matt, and the returning Michael Guarnieri as we take the journey to answering that question, which we begin with The Sixth Sense and will eventually lead to Shyamalan's new film Old, scheduled for release this July. After Signs was such a huge hit in 2002, it would seem that Shyamalan would have carte blanche to do what he likes. But once he turned in his script for The Village in to executives, doubts were swirled that he really was 'The Next Spielberg' that Newsweek proclaimed him to be. But they figured that Shyamalan must know what he as doing, and helped him put together perhaps the most ensemble cast of his career. The result is a movie that in many peoples' minds started the downturn of Shyamalan's career. Join myself and Matt as we once lead Mike, who is once again coming to a viewing of a Shyamalan film for the very first time, and answer the question of whether or not The Village is a good movie.
