At first glance, this village seems picture perfect, but this close-knit community lives with the frightening knowledge that creatures reside in the surrounding woods. The evil and foreboding force is so unnerving that none dare venture beyond the borders of the village and into the woods. But when curious, headstrong Lucius Hunt plans to step beyond the boundaries of the town and into the unknown, his bold move threatens to forever change the future of the village.

July 30, 2004: The Village Q&A:
Filmmaker M. Night Shyamalan is responsible for some of the
scariest and most thought-provoking movies to come along in recent
years. His breakthrough film,
THE SIXTH SENSE, astonished...
July 19, 2004: SciFi's Night lies:
If you'll remember back to this story the Sci-Fi network promised an upcoming documentary that would reveal a "Buried Secret" about writer/director M. Night Shyamalan and his past. At the end of that very article I questioned whether it was the real deal or...

July 6, 2004: Chat w/ Shyamalan!:
I said to the wife the other day, I said, "Wife...we need to get you to the movies so you can see SPIDER-MAN 2." She said, "Yeah...but when are we gonna see M. Night Shyamalan's new movie!" Yup, the woman I married blew off SPIDER-MAN 2. But considering...
June 25, 2004: Behind...The Village!:
I'm a fan of M. Night Shyamalan. THE
SIXTH SENSE took me for a loop. UNBREAKABLE
held up even better upon second viewing (and considering that I gave
it a 9/10 after my first viewing...) and...
June 16, 2004: Depp, Village, Paddle clips:
Movie Box has added three new spots for three very different looking films.
The first comes in the form of a one minute clip from M. Night Shyamalan's
THE VILLAGE that

seems to...
May 28, 2004: New Village clip online:
Earlier this month ABC offered up viewers the opportunity to get a first look at 7 1/2 minutes worth of footage from THE VILLAGE during their broadcast of M. Night Shyamalan's UNBREAKABLE. Until now that clip wasn't online. But we've got it for you here at...
May 25, 2004: Incredibles/Village art:
I'm looking forward to THE VILLAGE a whole lot. I know the film has gotten some negative buzz after the script made the online rounds but I'm hoping Shyamalan's recent reshoots can fix any problems that may have existed. I'm a big fan of his and would line up...
May 24, 2004: New Village ending?:
A
lot of people are wondering just exactly what director M. Night Shyamalan was up
to this past week when he and most of his cast, including Sigourney Weaver,
William Hurt, Joaquin Phoenix, and Bryce Howard, set up shop in Chadds Ford,
Chester County to...
May 4, 2004: Village site opens:
After last night's presentation of 7-minutes of behind-the-scenes footage from M. Night Shyamalan's next film THE VILLAGE during ABC's airing of UNBREAKABLE, the official website for the film has opened up. No longer just a teaser page, the site boasts a new...

MOVIE TRAILERS were added to the site this

than SIGNS -- teaser trailer from the master of the creeps,...
April 27, 2004: Village trailer online!:
I'm one of the suckers who actually fell for the Disney promotional stunt "2 Days of Night" on ABC where the trailer for THE VILLAGE premiered. During a broadcast of "The Sixth Sense" hosted by M. Night Shyamalan the trailer premiered...very late in the...
April 20, 2004: New Village trailer:
Want to get your first glimpse at the full trailer for M. Night Shyamalan's THE VILLAGE? It sadly won't be on the web. It also won't be in theaters. It'll be on ABC. Yup, Mr. Shyamalan himself will host an airing of "The Sixth Sense" on ABC March 26th, during...
April 2, 2004: Disney 2004 Preview!:
It only took them 3 months into the year, but WALT
DISNEY/BUENA VISTA PICTURES finally got their 2004 movie slate
preview out there, and it's a semi-interesting melange of films, most of which
stick by Disney's tried-and-true tradition of "family"...
March 19, 2004: New Village pics!:
A pretty tight lid has been kept on M. Night Shyamalan's THE VILLAGE as far as pictures go. A few have popped up here or there but Disney is trying to keep things quite for its notoriously secretive director. But today the floodgates have opened up and our pal...
March 9, 2004: Disney promo pics!:
Buried amongst many a plan to eventually rule the world and continued efforts
to empty your wallet by way of children and adults that refuse to grow up,
Disney has released some pretty worthwhile looks at some of their big name
upcoming projects on their...
January 15, 2004: New Village/Arthur pics!:
Empire Magazine ran some great new shots in their latest issue and JoBlo.com reader "Hugo" was kind enough to throw the old mag on the scanner and send the pics in. Below is the first shot from THE VILLAGE featuring M. Night chatting it up with Adrien Brody as...

December 5, 2003: Village set pics online!:
When M. Night Shyamalan's script for THE VILLAGE - one which was reportedly under extra security at Disney - was leaked and numerous script reviews came up on the web, many of them negative, Disney executives must've had a heart attack. The hope was that it was...
November 4, 2003: Village films in PA:
M. Night Shyamalan's next thriller, THE VILLAGE, began filming in Pennsylvania last week and by all accounts, most in Pennsbury Township, PA would have no idea. Security is so tight, a Philadelphia Inquirer reporter checking out the set's perimeter was...
October 21, 2003: Village set details:
Right here, right now, I'm declaring my undying love for M. Night Shyamalan! Not in the man-on-man, bumpin' uglies kind of way, but in the cinematic sense of the term. In my opinion the guy can make a movie and tell a story like no one else today, and even if...
October 6, 2003: M Night's next changes:
M. Night Shyamalan's next picture will no longer be THE WOODS. It will instead by a thriller titled THE VILLAGE. OK, before you get yourself in a tizzy, let me explain. THE VILLAGE is THE WOODS and THE WOODS is THE VILLAGE. All that's changed is the name....
August 29, 2003: Woods script review!:
Did you want the secrets of M. Night Shyamalan's secrets ruined for you? I didn't think so. But maybe you just want to learn a little bit more about the film. There hasn't been much information released by the studio - other than the film takes place in the...
July 16, 2003: More Woods casting:
While I'm disappointed Kirsten Dunst had to drop out of M. Night Shyamalan's THE WOODS, I have to say I'm impressed with the rest of the casting news so far. Joaquin Phoenix, Sigourney Weaver and William Hurt are all great choices for acting, not for who's got a...
July 14, 2003: Weaver leads Woods:
M. Night Shyamalan's next film, THE WOODS, is shaping up nicely with William Hurt joining the cast on Friday and today it was announced Sigourney Weaver had signed on to play the female lead. In addition to Hurt, Weaver joins the previously announced stars...
