neutral · AI labelView post →How did we have a movie called Watcher, a TV series called The Watcher and a movie called The Watchers all come out within 2 years of each other?
neutral · AI labelView post →Watching horror movie (The Watchers) that starts with "There's a forest in the west of Ireland that does not appear on any map." and I can just hear my Nana going "Oh, you went in the forest that eats people and you got et did you? Well what were you playing silly buggers for?"
neutral · AI labelView post →That bug planet looked like the movie The Watchers

The Free Press is not costumed vigilantes. That only works in comics and Netflix Specials. Who Watches the Watchers?

neutral · AI labelView post →Ishana Night Shyamalan's directorial debut, THE WATCHERS, features fascinating folklore, unsettling imagery, a disquieting atmosphere, and Olwen Fouéré, who is always great. Story gets a bit lost in the third act, but overall I enjoyed it. Available on VOD and on Max. 🎥 #filmsky #horrorsky

neutral · AI labelView post →Just watched The Watchers. It was... eh? Kinda empty? It wasn't bad but it wasn't good. It was just there. I felt absolutely nothing at the end. I really have never liked any Shyamalan movie, and yay, now there's two Shyamalans making them.

positive · AI labelView post →In case you were wondering: yes, big juicy twists are hereditary. My review of Ishana Shyamalan's debut feature The Watchers, a horror movie set in a forest ruled by voyeuristic monsters
neutral · AI labelView post →I wish The Watchers was better. Ah well. My full review is over on my patreon, but you can read a sample here. letterboxd.com/catelyn/film...
negative · AI labelView post →THE WATCHERS (2024, Netflix, #film) A junior Night Shyamalan turns in her first feature, a subpar fantasy horror novel adaptation with a ruinously scrambled mess of a script. Please bypass this and enjoy co-lead Georgina Campbell in LOVELY, DARK, AND DEEP (2023); the exact same premise done right.
negative · AI labelView post →I'm quite happy that the movie "The Watchers" by Ishana Night Shyamalan will be available to watch on my plane to Tokyo this week ❤️ I wanted to see it for sure!
positive · AI labelView post →I loved the Watchers btw. That movie by Ishana Night Shyamalan. I loved it!!!

neutral · AI labelView post →Just finished The Watchers. Very interesting movie—especially with this topic. Does Dakota Fanning find these type of scripts or do they find her? She’s almost like the female Nic Cage as there’s a certain niche she’s found. I love seeing her though.

neutral · AI labelView post →Now out in movie form - I really enjoyed the original wonderfully creepy novel The Watchers by AM Shine www.runalongtheshelves.net/blog/2021/10...
neutral · AI labelView post →Noticed the incredible The Watchers by AM Shine is going to be a movie here is my review of this scary trip to the woods from a while back in case you’re tempted
positive · AI labelView post →I'm late, but I'm here! I'm Fen, and I write urban fantasy/folklore horror. I loved the Annihilation movie and have the book on standby (not read yet). I also enjoyed The Watchers (set in a forest), but I don't think I have any favs where the ecology is the horror - yet! #HorrorWritersChat
positive · AI labelView post →📽️ EVERY NIGHT IS MOVIE NIGHT 🍿 (84/365) #NowShowing THE WATCHERS (2024) I was a fan of M Night Shyamalan (before The Happening and Avatar), and seeing the trailer for this one, it looks like his daughter has some real spooky genes, too. Interested to see how this one turns out. 🧡🤘 #FilmSky
neutral · AI labelView post →Stay in the Light was a great sequel to The Watchers, I really enjoy folklore based horror 🙌🏻 Now on to I Am Legend, pretty sure we’ve all seen the movie, but I’ve never read the book 🧛🏻
neutral · AI labelView post →Tonight the goblins are watching The Watchers! Has anyone else seen this one?
neutral · AI labelView post →The Watchers is a well shot movie with a somewhat entertaining plot. The movie is short & it's the directorial debut for M. Night Shyamalan's daughter. Dakota Fanning is the lead actress & she's good in it. The creatures in the movie are interesting once they are revealed. Streaming on Netflix
neutral · AI labelView post →2nd time watch of The Watchers. Being a city girl, the woods freak me out at night, so this is my type of movie. Although I remember more liking than loving it. #FrightClub
neutral · AI labelView post →Not a franchise yet, but a recently released movie is about the fae, The Watchers. m.imdb.com/title/tt2673...
neutral · AI labelView post →Watched The Watchers. You can see that Ishana Shyamalan has her dad's genes as there is a interesting movie in here with it's plot and creatures. But the writing is very clunky, especially with the twists with one being very obvious to see. Acting is also hit and miss.
neutral · AI labelView post →Also as it’s now getting some attention as movie trailer. The Watchers by AM Shine is shiveringly good
neutral · AI labelView post →Nico’s TBR pick is Midnight is the Darkest Hour, by Ashely Winstead, author of The Future Saints (which we covered last year and didn’t love) Dacey’s rec is for the book (published in 2021), not the movie! The Watchers by A.M.Shine 👀 #booksky #bookstagram #booktok

neutral · AI labelView post →#100HorrorMoviesIn92Days - bonus (149) The Watchers (2024) dir. Ishana Night Shyamalan Fantasy horror - this was ok. It's based on the novel by A.M. Shine, and I think I'll read that for sure. I liked the creature design! letterboxd.com/film/the-wat...
neutral · AI labelView post →I watched The Watchers. It was a decent movie. Didn’t deserve all the negative reviews.
positive · AI labelView post →I noticed on Letterboxd that some horror movie series trend up in average ratings with the later sequels. I suspect this is irrespective of quality, but more because if you're gonna see all the Watchers sequels or the 4th Scanners sequel, then you're probably gonna give it a good rating

neutral · AI labelView post →Enjoyed watching the film adaptation of The Watchers today. The title was changed to The Watchers it clashed with a similar named series.
positive · AI labelView post →Finally caught "Cuckoo" last night after months for waiting for a window when I could pay proper attention to it. I really enjoyed the film and I'll take any chance I can get to watch Dan Stevens play off-kilter characters. It reminded me quite a bit of "The Watchers".

neutral · AI labelView post →Watched "The Watchers" for the first time and (spoilers) realized it was like the upside-down of my fae-making-TV universe in "Tune in Tomorrow" and "We Interrupt This Program." Faeries? ☑️ Reality TV show? ☑️ Their loving our stupid little daily selves? ☑️What's funny to me is terrifying in that film.
neutral · AI labelView post →Now watching- The Watchers Reborn (1998) This is the fourth Watchers movie. I haven’t seen them, but I read the original book. It’s got monsters and a super intelligent dog. Produced by Roger Corman. Starring Mark Hamill. This is bound to be interesting somehow.
