In M. Night Shyamalan's "The Village," the Academy Award-nominated filmmaker, who brought you "The Sixth Sense" and "Signs," assembles an all-star cast, including Joaquin Phoenix and Sigourney Weaver and Academy Award-winners Adrien Brody and William Hurt, to bring to the screen the thrilling tale of an isolated village confronting the astonishing truth that lies just outside its borders. At first glance, this village seems picture perfect, but this close-knit community lives with the frightening knowledge that creatures reside in the surrounding woods. The evil and foreboding force is so unnerving that none dare venture beyond the borders of the village and into the woods. But when curious, headstrong Lucius Hunt plans to step beyond the boundaries of the town and into the unknown, his bold move threatens to forever change the future of the village.

MovieWeb Reviews:
"[The Village], for all its various matters of subject, is as meandering as a woodland stream, though every bit as effective in direction, mood, performance, scares and heart as any cinephile or Shyamalan fan might dare to hope. " 
"Shyamalan’s got a cast and story that are nothing short of wonderful." 
- Lori Kapes
