M Night Shyamalan has suffered his share of critical and commercial beatings, but he’s back in the director’s chair hoping audiences will make the choice to watch his next twisty thriller.

Or will the world truly end unless these glampers prove willing to sacrifice more than a weekend without good internet? Choose M Night Blue Level and find out.

M. Night Shyamalan pays a Visit to Blumhouse – the movie studio responsible for the low cost/highly profitable Paranormal Activity series – after disgruntled Hollywood executives cut off funding to future projects. Does the director look like an old man trying his hand at the found footage genre? Or does his pseudo-documentary about the sinister habits of sundowning grandparents leave Jakob, Stuart, and Arnie crying for their mommy?

Are you entertained watching ungrateful children sass their parents in public places? Check out After Earth – M. Night Shyamalan’s documentary on the trials and tribulations Will Smith goes through trying to turn son Jaden into a movie star. (Ostensibly, it’s also a sci-fi saga about a father and son marooned on inhospitable future Earth, working together to find enough cell signal to call an Uber.) Is the twist ending that Shyamalan is working for Scientologists?

Bad things keep Happening to M Night Shyamalan!  Was his foray into R-rated horror simply a creative way of committing career suicide?  Or was the Sixth Sense creator under the influence of some kind of psychotropic herb (or $6 cough syrup) when he concocted this loony environmental parable?  And should science teacher Mark Wahlberg be running away from the wind or his traitorous, tiramisu-eating wife Zooey Deschanel? Walk it all backwards with Stuart, Arnie, and Jakob when you Donate for Now Playing Podcast’s Gold Level Shyamalan series!
