The Village (2004)

An small isolated town has always had a truce with the myserious creatures in it's surrounding forest. Now it seems as if the peace is ending. Maybe it's because I had to watch a crappy movie called Catwoman last week, but I really got into this film. Well the first 45-50 minuets dragged but the climax was worth the build-up. I always love a movie with a few good twists and this one delivered. M. Night Shyamalan manages to write a direct another good one. A must see. 4 out of 5.

Characters:

• Ivy: Blind woman who can get around better than most of the characters who can see.
• Lucius Ivy's main squeeze who dares to go out into the forest. He's the 'Fonzie' of this town.
• Noah: A slightly retarded man who gets slightly carried away when playing and stabbing people.
• Edward: Ivy's dad who seems to pretty much run the town.
• Alice: Lucius's mother... and well... yeah.

The Totals:

• Body Count: 2
• Weapons Used: A knife and a big hole.
• Breast Shots: 0
• Moments where characters are mysteriously unable to run from certain death: Do blind people count here?
• Ominous thunderstorms: 0
• Explosions: 0
