warning!!!
DO NOT see this movie if you think it's going to be good like "Signs" or "The sixth sense". I wasted 90 minutes of my life watching this film, it was rubbish, the acting by everyone was rubbish, the plot was rubbish, the script was rubbish!! 90 minutes of rubbish!!
I'm so glad I didn't pay to watch this (friend at cinema!) if I had, I would have asked for my money back! I was actually shocked by how bad this film was when I left the cinema. I wouldn't even watch it on dvd or the tv. It wasn't even a good B movie, god knows who actually financed it. -

I suggest you steer well clear. -

Let that be a lesson to us all, because while audiences will probably spend a good deal of the trim Read more

Happening, The - BLU-RAY Version
In THE HAPPENING, M. Night Shyamalan serves up a slice of apocalyptic strangeness. The film opens onto New York City's Central Park with a crowd of people enjoying an idyllic summer day.
