Details: Product Description M. Night Shyamalan (SIGNS, UNBREAKABLE, THE SIXTH SENSE), the director who brought you the world's greatest thrillers on DVD, now creates his most thought-provoking triumph yet ... breaking international records and dazzling audiences around the globe! THE VILLAGE is a smart, edge-of-your-seat chiller crawling with terrifying surprises and frightening twists and turns. An isolated, tight-knit community lives in mortal fear of an oppressive evil inhabiting the forbidden forest just beyond their tiny village. So frightening that no one ventures into the woods...until one villager dares to face the unknown. With unforgettable performances from Joaquin Phoenix, Sigourney Weaver, William Hurt, Adrien Brody, and newcomer Bryce Dallas Howard, this powerful motion picture is one of Hollywood's best psychological thrillers and ranks with the best of Hitchcock! Amazon.ca For his sixth film, The village, and after the successes of The sixth sense The indestructible or Signs, the director M. Night Shyamalan applies again his favorite recipe: shivers, a touch of horror, startles and a final surprise. In 1897, the happy harmony of a small village in Pennsylvania, preserved by the elders, is disturbed by the attacks of monsters whose names must not be pronounced, attracted by the color red and which haunt the surrounding woods. But will the climate of fear now instilled prevent Lucius, the discreet, and Ivy, the young blind, from loving each other? Especially since Noah, the crazy girl, is already in love with the beauty. Magnificently filmed, especially in the night scenes, gracefully using the depth of field, Le village also relies on the skilfully constructed script of M. Night Shyamalan and on fit performers: William Hurt, Sigourney Weaver, Joaquin Phoenix but above all Bryce Dallas Howard (daughter of director Ron Howard) as a young blind man in love and Adrien Brody, terribly disturbing. Sometimes overusing sound effects, the film also perpetuates the director's belief in the goodness, innocence and simplicity of humans while discovering an interesting final political metaphor. The DVD is completed with a making-of, a logbook of Miss Howard, deleted scenes and a rather amusing youth film from the director. – Helen Faradji.
