The Village (2004) - 108 min

The Village is an American psychological thriller film, written, produced and directed by M. Night Shyamalan.
Starring Bryce Dallas Howard, Joaquin Phoenix, Adrien Brody, William Hurt & Sigourney Weaver.
For years, the villagers had a pact with the creatures in the woods. As long as the villagers did not break their borders, the creatures will not attack. After a child dies from a curable disease, Lucius Hunt decides to break the pact in order to get medicines from another town to avoid such a tragedy from happening again.
This is the most underrated movie of Night Shyamalan. Actually, It's a wonderful movie if you are not comparing it with his previous works. Shyamalan did a fabulous job in keeping the intensity factor alive till the film ends. The best thing about the film is its special effects which was refreshing. Overall, it's a powerful and surprising movie, which explores the value of community and it's worth a shot.
Verdict: Good
