Ok Mark Wahlberg and John Leguizamo.. two guys I love watching so yeah I am interested. I just dunno if it will be too scary for me =/

I'm interested in it too, but like Temprah said, I don't want it to be "too scary."

Have any of Shyamalan's movies really been that scary? Suspenseful...exciting...but really scary?

Okay...there were a couple scenes in Sixth Sense with the ghosts that were kinda creepy...

The terrifying images and violence thing is what gets me. Blood and guts and gore.. I can not do.
Den 18 years ago
I don't like that either Temp, which is why I have never seen any of the SAW movies, or Hostel, etc., but if there is more to the movie than that, I will put up with it.

I also don't consider guts and gore to be scary...nor do I like 'jump out at you' movies, which tout themselves as being horror. I guess the word horror can be subjective, but to me true horror makes me sweat at night when I think about it...or it makes me check under my bed, or in my closet before I go to sleep, and has a definite supernatural aspect to it. Not many movies these days fill that bill.

Crap.. you guys just made me thing of Shyamalan's "Signs", and the movie Dreamcatcher.
Both of those movies scare the living daylights out of me & every time I think of them I can't get to sleep, & if I do, I'm dreaming of alien invasions. :neutral:

I think the most terrifying image involving John Leguizamo I can think of is him in drag... or as Luigi.

You know, I was just getting ready to say that his movies have become too predictable and that the last few he did have flopped (I never even bothered with Lady of the Lake or whatever). Then I saw the trailer Roz posted. Wow. I may have to see this one.

I really liked signs and sixth sense.. even though signs is too scary for me to watch alone at night..( ive tried) oh and that one with julianne more .. the forgotten ( was that M Night?)

the lady in the water wasnt too bad, and the others I dont care for either way.. but Ill take em over the blood and gore ( Saw type) movies any day

I'm surprised he's going this gory - I didn't think he had it in him. I really loved Lady in the Water - I always cry at the ending. /sob I don't think the Forgotten was a Shyamalan movie.
