We love the movies! In the theater! There’s nothing like it! Our latest outing was to M. Night Shyamalan‘s OLD. Watch to see our always honest opinion!

Saleka Shyamalan is opening up about working on her dad M. Night Shyamalan‘s new movie, Old.

The 2018 horror film “Hereditary” was terrifying for the viewer, and it also really affected actor Alex Wolff.

Hereditary.The actor recently reflected on his role in Ari Aster’s 2018 horror film, saying “that movie did about as much damage to me as a movie can do.”He explained in an interview with Looper that he lost sleep and suffered psychological effects, saying he suffered “all of it.

M. Night Shyamalan has shed some light on the ending to his box office-topping film Old.In an interview with NME, the filmmaker was asked if he had ever considered any alternative endings to the film.“The structure of the movie was always this way,” Shyamalan explained.
