This movie was filmed in a field less than a mile from my house when I was a kid, ended up working for the farmer that owns the field when I got older. Kinda cool to see how popular the movie got and how many people got to see this random field near my house!
Wow the plot twist was something else! Reminds me of a Japanese WWII soldier who though war wasn't over as he was hiding in the forest for well over 10 years after the end of the war.

Very rich and very well organised and orchestrated cult. . . . . BUT STILL. . . . After a few generations genetic errors will cause them all to become monsters. Eventually . . . . . . . ..
If no one has seen the speech that Lucious gives Ivy on the front porch you've got to do it. It's SO well acted. I've never felt so much emotion through a guy whispering and the other person's complete silence.
100% Agree with you! Every time I watch that scene, (and the one at the resting stone), I just wish it would go in slow motion. It slowly teases Lucius' feelings and emotions about Ivy, and you can see the conflict inside this very quiet, introverted, reserved person as he finally breaks free enough to, in effect, reveal to Ivy that yes, he does see her as his future wife. So many people hate this film because there aren't enough gunfights, car chases, and explosions, (none actually), but I love it. Yes there are some clumsy plot choices, but overall this is one of my favorite movies. And I must admit I've had a bit of crush on Bryce since I first saw her in her first scene in this movie. =)
I saw it as a kid and thought it sucked. Watched it last year and cemented my first opinion. I am impressed at the stars he gets involved though. What a bunch of suckers
@@thewatershopkeeper yeah I was talking about The Village, not the first replys post, that said I have many friends who make "good films". If you have what it takes you'll get your platform. So keep grinding mate
this was a great movie... the problem is it was marketed as some kind of horror/monster film and it was nothing like that. The real tragedy of this story is they started the village to get away from the "violence" of modern society and they still couldn't escape it, because one of their kids ends up stabbing the other one lol
That's one of the things that ruined it for me. I thought I was gonna see some cool monster stuff. But nope. The other thing that ruined it was the nearly non-existent camera work for most of the movie. The still static shots ruined what was otherwise pretty superb acting, almost as if the lack of camera work was numbing the emotions that the actors were displaying. It made it so that even for scenes that were supposed to be dramatic, I nearly fell asleep. I don't know if anyone else finds camera work to be this crucial for a movie though. But for me it made it pretty much impossible for me to enjoy it. And that was a shame, because I could have gotten over the misleading marketing and overhyped beginning. It has a great premise, good plot, and likeable main characters. The twist was alright too. But man, I just wish it had some camera movement to keep me immersed. I've watched plays from the back seat where I was more immersed. I'm not asking for shakey cam or anything, but lone youtubers have better camera work in their videos, good enough to convince the audience that the same person can play multiple characters. So it can't be a budget thing. And it can't be a product of its time either, since movies have been using shots for a long time before this movie too. So why was the camerawork so damn absent in this movie? Laziness? Chosen style? IDK, and that frustrates me that such a simple thing ruined a movie for me.
Wouldn't happen, as it doesn't work that way. They can't and won't bust in and start arresting people simply because they find out the village exists. That is why real cults who actually do commit continual violence and atrocities against the people among them can't be arrested without authorities collecting a good amount of definitive physical evidence and victim testimony of said abuses etc before acting on any type of raid or arrests. Ffs
This is my favorite M.Night Movie. It's not quite as streamlined/popular as Signs, but it is by far the most realistic movie he's ever made. This movie could actually be playing out in the real world somewhere. Maybe not the nuanced details, but the overall scenario is plausible. Also, this movie capture's Bryce Dallas Howard at her most beautiful. Pale clothes on a fair-skin really highlighted her natural ginger beauty.
I found the concept horrifying because I'm sure some nutcase is doing something very similar in a tiny village somewhere... It still chills me to think about it but considering what happened to the founders of the town, I can understand their motive, they were sick of violence and wanted to escape it.
The elders think they're doing what's best by keeping the villagers away from harm but in reality they're all just cowards running away from reality and dragging other people's lives.
@@joewhitehead3 Yes. You don't get to just run off into the woods and supplant the natural habitat with a human habitat because you find cities traumatizing, and you definitely shouldn't create a propaganda campaign in order to instill fear in the younger generation so they're too afraid to leave the safe space. Why didn't these people just become Mennonites?
@masked knight- there always has to be a person out of the bunch to make a dumb negative comment to try and be funny and bring people down to your level. Shape up or ship out son

OMG I KNEW IT I FREAKEN KNEW THIS MOVIE WAS REAL!!!!! For so long I thought of this movie thinking it was just a dream but now I know I watched it thank God this movie haunted me for years trying to remember it
I was honestly freaked out about this movie as a kid , I wasn’t old enough to really understand the story I thought the creature was a real thing in the woods like some kind of demonic hedgehog/pig

I remember this movie coming on cable back in like middle school/high school. Such a great movie. I’d bring myself to watch it multiple times just to muster up the bravery to look at the monster when she hid behind the tree but I just couldn’t do it. Every single time. it’s something about that costume. It’s visually traumatizing lol

@@joshuavd5194 no, it had nothing to do with the village ffs. The person she met at the large gate she climbed over was a guard for an animal sanctuary, not security for the village.
@@kuywasaamazikeen8048 It's not a sanctuary. I think you missed the point. It was constructed by the elders, so that nobody would enter the village. This is backed up when Shyamalan's character speaks to Kevin about how the man who founded the sanctuary made it illegal for aircraft to fly over the sanctuary. The security obviously do not know this and, believe they're just maintaining the wall and whatnot. It's all part of the elder's foresight, my dude.
This was me and my dad's favorite movie (God rest his soul) he would put it on every night to fall asleep. I will say that I have yet to see another moving this intriguing and unexpected plot twists for it's time...I fell in love with m.night shahmylan (I'm sure I butchered his last name.

just for that scene, lol. he found his parents' suit under the floorboards. there were multiple other people in the suits, probably the elders or designated individuals.
I think the craziest part about this cult, is that eventually the original people will die. And their knowledge of the outside world will die with them.
Now I am just waiting for you to do a movie recaps about "The Lady In The Water" - you got some taste of movies, I am sure you might like that interesting too
I think this may be based off a book I read in middle school (can't remember the name). There was an illness of some sort going around the village, and the main character's parents sent her out to find medicine. Come to find out, it was actually the 21st century, and they were living in a museum, observed by other's wanting to see what life was like in the 19th century....Crazy story
I accidentally found that book sometime after I had watched this dumpster fire. The book isn't great, but it's okay. However, I think that the movie is NOT based on the book. More than 35 years ago, I wrote several extremely UNIQUE sci-fi stories that I kept secret, & that I never allowed ANYBODY else to know even existed. However (at least 20 years later at the earliest), I have read a few sci-fi stories (& even a few sci-fi movies) that were VERY similar to MY sci-fi stories. Despite their similarities, I KNOW that they didn't "steal my ideas" because they never knew that MY sci-fi stories existed. My point is that sometimes people can have similar stories that are NOT "stolen from somebody else's stories".
Idk why anyone (besides his own parents) would feel bad for Noah...he should have been genuinely locked up as soon as it happened (like chained up to a chair or to a wall and with handcuff & what not..) Like he literally tried to kill Lucius and then he was trying to hurt and or kill ivy in the Forest if not do something worse, so yeah fuck that guy. (And I know he is supposed to be mentally slow or whatever but he still knew what he was doing was wrong....
One time i was walking in a trail with a friend and seen red things on the ground and it reminded me of this movie but i couldn't remember the title. I asked her "do you remember what movie is called with people in the village?" And it just hit me as i said "the village" 🤣
I feel like the part that upsets me the most is Noah's part of the story. He shouldn't have been there if his parents weren't too busy running from their own horrors than Noah's wouldn't have ever started. He could've had gotten help if they lived in the city but now hes dead in a hole
I watched this movie when I was little, probably 8 or 10, and I had a pretty large yard that had a bunch or trees, that led into the woods. Needless to say, after watching this movie, I didn’t go outside in my backyard at night.
Oh my, I literally saw 30s of this when I was like 6yrs old, and I remember just a snippet, been trying find this since then and I'm currently 22. So glad RUclips was like "here you go buddy it's been long enough"
I was scared and glue on the sofa. That night I sleep glue to my boyfriend. In the beginning i was scare by the village monster but hen I realize how scary human can be...imagine growing up in a world where people are intentionally hidden reality and fabricated scary story to keep you around. People that you trust. That’s scary.
that "elders doing shady Halloween costume" was quite telling since they were so adamant to keep people away (no matter lucius being so smart with his theories)
This movie scared the hell of me first time I watched, the thing is, I didn't got to watch all of it, just a part of it, the scary part, and never got to watch it all until some months ago. I had nightmares for day's.
This movie would have been fantastic if one scene would have been put farther in the movie. The scene where her father tells her what's going on should have been after she ran into the monster. When they show that scene, you can tell that she already knows the monster is just a man at that point. They could have started the scene woth the father right before the monster falls into the pit.
I don’t think so, the intention seemed to make you question if the monster are actually there, in the forest you hear her dad talking about how theirs folk legends of them actually being there
I remember being disappointed with this movie as a kid due to the twist and it not being scary at all. What I never realized is how many great actors they snagged for this film. Small time and big time alike.
I remember watching this movies atvthe age of 25. And the village elders reminded me of the government and the village children and the citizen discovering the truth as you get older and read and do research.

I think this may be based off a book I read in middle school (can't remember the name). There was an illness of some sort going around the village, and the main character's parents sent her out to find medicine. Come to find out, it was actually the 21st century, and they were living in a museum, observed by other's wanting to see what life was like in the 19th century....Crazy story
If you ever remember please come back here and share it!
the book is called Running Out of Time!
@@lotusblossom1550 thank you so much!!
I accidentally found that book sometime after I had watched this dumpster fire. The book isn't great, but it's okay. However, I think that the movie is NOT based on the book. More than 35 years ago, I wrote several extremely UNIQUE sci-fi stories that I kept secret, & that I never allowed ANYBODY else to know even existed. However (at least 20 years later at the earliest), I have read a few sci-fi stories (& even a few sci-fi movies) that were VERY similar to MY sci-fi stories. Despite their similarities, I KNOW that they didn't "steal my ideas" because they never knew that MY sci-fi stories existed.
My point is that sometimes people can have similar stories that are NOT "stolen from somebody else's stories".
Running out of time by Margaret Peterson haddox
Idk why anyone (besides his own parents) would feel bad for Noah...he should have been genuinely locked up as soon as it happened (like chained up to a chair or to a wall and with handcuff & what not..)
Like he literally tried to kill Lucius and then he was trying to hurt and or kill ivy in the Forest if not do something worse, so yeah fuck that guy. (And I know he is supposed to be mentally slow or whatever but he still knew what he was doing was wrong....
Finally!! Someone agrees. I never liked that dude
Noah was locked up as soon as they found out he stabbed Lucius and he died in the forest before anyone knew he attacked Ivy
Wait he was trying to kill Ivy? I thought he was playing a game like they did earlier?
@@susanhynes1277 yea he was going to kill her. he was the one torturing and killing all the animals too
He was mentally unstable. He couldn't tell what was right or wrong because he acted on pulsions, raw emotional need and not on consciousness.
Kevin is an epitome of faith in humanity has been restored
This movie made me fall in love with Bryce Dallas Howard, I loved her even more in the Lady in the Water which was by M. Night as well.
I’m enjoying a Friday night ‘movie marathon’ watching movie recaps!
I've seen this movie several times. Its the best film this director has ever made.
IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS MOVIE THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!
I always loved this movie, but I haven't seen it in a long time. I might have to go hunt this down and watch it again! I love this channel!
What is the name of this movie
@@JoeMama-bf6ns The Village. It's a good movie too!
@@elizabethgaspodnetich4322 thanks
The Village is one of my favourite movies, glad u did a video on it
One time i was walking in a trail with a friend and seen red things on the ground and it reminded me of this movie but i couldn't remember the title. I asked her "do you remember what movie is called with people in the village?" And it just hit me as i said "the village" 🤣
Atleast Ivy and Lucius were alive and lived happily
That plot tho. Damn, I didn't expect that lol
Sees a creature and instantly leaves the forest. Always loved that for him! 😂
Anybody who sees this
Have a blessed day
*To be honest I make fantastic videos but people don't watch them 😞😭*

this is like when my parents told me a 3 eyed monster will eat me if I don't go to sleep.. like how is that suppose to help me?
The blind girl is now one of the directors of The Mandalorian.
The village: finds a cheez it box:
Also the village:💀💀💀💀
I feel like the part that upsets me the most is Noah's part of the story. He shouldn't have been there if his parents weren't too busy running from their own horrors than Noah's wouldn't have ever started. He could've had gotten help if they lived in the city but now hes dead in a hole
I remember watching this when I was younger with my mom it's a wonderful movie
I watched this movie when I was little, probably 8 or 10, and I had a pretty large yard that had a bunch or trees, that led into the woods. Needless to say, after watching this movie, I didn’t go outside in my backyard at night.
M. Night Shyamalan did a great job on the village 10/10
This one of my favorite creepy movies as a kid❤️
This movie is underrated. A great movie.
I remember being scared shitless when I watched this as a 7 yo or maybe 8
I remember watching this and ugh I still love this movie. Have to watch it again maybe my thoughts will change
That officer who had helped Ivy with the medicine, will be thinking about what happened that day for the rest of his life
I really like Shyamalan - he is my favourite writer / director - most if not all his films are awesome.
Nothing is more beautiful than deep love...
❤
😭
ive actually seen this moive a long time ago. underrated. great movie
Oh my, I literally saw 30s of this when I was like 6yrs old, and I remember just a snippet, been trying find this since then and I'm currently 22. So glad RUclips was like "here you go buddy it's been long enough"
wow, just realized that this movie has many good actors !! Watching this move this weekend !!
I was scared and glue on the sofa. That night I sleep glue to my boyfriend. In the beginning i was scare by the village monster but hen I realize how scary human can be...imagine growing up in a world where people are intentionally hidden reality and fabricated scary story to keep you around. People that you trust. That’s scary.
Love of ivy for her lover made me emotional..
When you already know the plot because of scary movie 4
that "elders doing shady Halloween costume" was quite telling since they were so adamant to keep people away (no matter lucius being so smart with his theories)
Tbh, Being an 18-year-old. I have no time to waste 2hrs for movies and I feel so lucky to find Movie Recap.
The village noises: HEH
me: MINECRAFT! :D
This movie scared the hell of me first time I watched, the thing is, I didn't got to watch all of it, just a part of it, the scary part, and never got to watch it all until some months ago. I had nightmares for day's.
M night Shyamalan never dissapoints me and this was one of his better movies
I love his movies. Not even Airbender bothers me, after all, the original did steal money from Japan.
For all now watching this in 2023
Yes sir😂
This movie would have been fantastic if one scene would have been put farther in the movie. The scene where her father tells her what's going on should have been after she ran into the monster. When they show that scene, you can tell that she already knows the monster is just a man at that point. They could have started the scene woth the father right before the monster falls into the pit.
I love this movie but I agree with you
I always thought it as thinking the creature being actually real was the original thought
I don’t think so, the intention seemed to make you question if the monster are actually there, in the forest you hear her dad talking about how theirs folk legends of them actually being there
Watching this before sleeping jst makes ur day 😆
This is one of my favourite movies and the music is just perfect
RiPELY ! (Sigourney Weaver) i legit didn’t notice how she was in the village. It’s been ages sense I’ve seen this film
"you run like a boy."
"thank you"
you run like a girl -> why do you insult my very existence
I remember being disappointed with this movie as a kid due to the twist and it not being scary at all. What I never realized is how many great actors they snagged for this film. Small time and big time alike.
Omg you are going through all my younger classic!!!you're amazing please keep it up..I'm a forever supporter now
Bryce Dallas Howard is a beautiful creature, her husband is the luckiest man in the world
She looks so much like Jessica Chastain here! Lol
@@roniereal yea also a lil bit of Natalie portman, but not that much
This was a great recap thanks!
When u realize 2 years was just last 2years
I love how he said "then they kiss" lmao
I remember watching this movies atvthe age of 25. And the village elders reminded me of the government and the village children and the citizen discovering the truth as you get older and read and do research.
