We watched the DVD of this movie at a relative’s house.

I can’t imagine what led M. Knight Shyamalan to make this movie. He certainly should never have allowed it to see the light of day once it had been edited and screened. Surely someone was telling him “Bury this thing!”

I’ve rarely watched a movie where I was so utterly engrossed in the absolute self-importance of the film maker who was trying to make something serious out of something so completely silly. It was sort of like watching an unintentional self-parody. I was entranced by its incredible badness.
