"The Ruins" Proves Plants are the New Big Bad

With all this eco-consciousness making everybody freak out, it was bound to happen that plants would start to haunt our nightmares. Freaky-ass pollen makes people kill themselves in M. Night Shyamalan's new flick The Happening (coming in June). And in The Ruins (coming out this Friday), a bunch of U.S. teens hiking in Mexico get their comeuppance from some angry vines. Yup, our super-evolved leafy pals are getting pissed. Light spoilers for The Ruins ahead. More »

What'll Be The Most Surprising Hit Movie Of The Summer?

Out of a dozen or so scifi movies coming out this summer, only four of them are absolutely bulletproof, according to you, our readers.

Marky Mark Wants You To Know What's Happening With Bees

In this new trailer from M. Night Shyamalan's The Happening, Marky Mark wants bored schoolkids to think about why all the Earth's honeybees are vanishing. The trouble is, unless you've got a video of giant robots decimating swarms of bees with lasers, the schoolkids just won't care.

The Latest "Get The Hell Out Of Town Due To A Virus" Movie

When people start shoving huge ponytail holder needles into their own necks, and dive-bombing themselves off skyscrapers, then it's probably safe to assume that something is "Happening." In this new trailer for M. Night Shyamalan's newest film The Happening, that's just what happens. People start committing mass suicide and dropping dead like flies, which causes Cameron from Ferris Bueller's Day Off to remark, "There appears to be an event happening."

M. Night's Latest Movie Just Ain't Happening

The poster for M. Night Shyamalan's latest theater-emptying film The Happening hit the net today, and it looks like he's fallen even farther out of touch with audiences. At least he's still in love with apocalyptic scenarios. In The Happening all plantlife on Earth has started spraying an invisible neurotoxin that kills anyone who breathes it, and soon there are just a few remaining survivors who get led by Marky Mark Wahlberg into the realms of poor box-office receipts. Even the poster tagline just makes you feel like the marketing department half-assed this one: "We've Sensed It, We've Seen The Signs. Now... It's Happening." [ComingSoon]
