You’ve sensed it. You’ve seen the signs. Now…it’s happening (but only to some people, for whatever reason.) 2008’s The Happening was just one of the red flags that M. Night Shyamalan was on the downward spiral, and it deserves another analyzation to understand just what went wrong. We’ll figure out what happened, plus how face-waterfalls lead to adoptions, Dustin’s scandalous high school play story, Mallie’s affinity for animated characters, and a hell of a lot more with special guest Nathan Simmons.

The Happening stars Mark Wahlberg, Betty Buckley, Zooey Deschanel, John Leguizamo, Spencer Breslin, and Ashlyn Sanchez. Directed by M. Night Shyamalan.
