The problem I have with the movie is that we're supposed to believe an advanced civilization would come to a planet where 75% of the surface is covered in a substance that will kill them if touched. The humidity in the air would alone would be enough to fry their lungs (if they have them), or at least irritate their skin. The movie itself shows scenes of mist and fog creeping along the ground. There is no way an organism adverse to water could possibly exist on Earth. That would be like humans breathing in an atmosphere of sulfuric acid.
@@DonMachado If you don't believe the demon/holy water thing, the little girl keeps saying the water is contaminated. Maybe it's not so much water itself, but whatever is in it here on Earth. Pollution ftw?

I was 12 when I saw it in theaters and it was pretty awesome. I was past the age of having nightmares from movies but if I was 8 or 9 I would have been freaked out. I saw "Independence day" when I was 8 and I was always freaked out when I saw big puff clouds because I was worried it was one of the spaceships before it reviels itself like in the movie. @@fatalpenguinful
“See, what you have to ask yourself is what kind of person are you? Are you the kind that sees signs, that sees miracles? Or do you believe that people just get lucky? Or, look at the question this way: Is it possible that there are no coincidences?” The whole speech is one of my favorites in all of cinema.
There have been WAAY to many lucky things have happened to me that literally can only be explained as like some kind of force. It's the only supernatural thing I really believe in.
did you watch the “behind the scenes” of signs here on youtube? Mel actually shot that scene months after Joaquin had shot his part of the conversation, he had NOTHING to play off of and absolutely demolished that scene in one take. theres testimony from m. night saying that it was some of the best acting hes ever seen.
The radio said they left some of their wounded behind. The one missing fingers was "wounded." I always got the impression that he was lingering around their house specifically as revenge for losing his fingers and being left behind.
Its possible that they don't take back ANY wounded. So Mel's character cutting the creatures fingers off was much worse than a wound. It was a death sentence or worse, being captured.
I remember reading somewhere on a different comment that the Alien was actually the demon haunting Mel Gibsons character as he was locked behind a door at Rays house (the man who ran over Mels wife) Once Ray asked Gram for forgiveness he was able to let go of it and now it was just up to Gram to forgive him so that he can get rid of the Demon. At the end of the film he regains his faith and tells Morgan someone did save him (God). Thus finally being able to let go of it.
@anubusx That is most likely why they made him a Man of God, so that it wouldn't be out of the question that he doesn't ever get a gun. And Idk where they would go if they left the farm. It seems they are they only ones left of their family. And if their income _comes_ from running the farm, they are basically protecting their business and way of life by not going anywhere.
Signs is probably one of the only few movies that actually creep me out on a very deep level. The fact that the aliens are hidden (almost besides the TV broadcast--and even then that was terrify as hell--) until the end was very intriguing to me because as a kid watching this I was like "I wanna see what they look like!" Then the pantry scene happened, I suddenly felt "oh... this isnt as fun anymore." Plus the differing views of everyone on this entire phenomena really felt like I was living in the moment. I especially remember the bookstore guy going "THERES SO MANY COLA ADS. ITS ALL A CONSPIRACY". Meanwhile ignoring the fact that a little girl is saying something is wrong with their water (although with her older brother saying its just a tick, still... something I would've considered being a theorist in that universe at that time. Now... the most creepy and disturbing part of the movie was when everything finally happens. The TV signals go out. Radios are silent. Indicatiing this is happening on a global scale, EVERYONE is now fighting for their lives... And then you see the shadows start coming through from outside. This movie perfectly set up how to unsettle a viewer with minimal visuals but maximal storytelling. THEN YOU ACTUALLY SEE THE ONE ALIEN AND ACTUALLY SEE HOW SPOOKY THEY ARE. I love this film. One of my favorites. One that I come back to to rewatch whenever I wanna feel like "spooky" feeling again. I havent found a movie (other than maybe Blair Witch Project) that made be feel genuinely worried of what were in the shadows. Great video!!
@@Defensive_WoundsLove Cloverfield. I know a lot of people hate the “shaky cam” aspect of it, but it’s one my favorites of all time. It’s one of the first movies I remember seeing the trailer for (came out with the 1st L.A. Transformers movie) & counting down the days until it came out - literally - as we were still using paper calendars on the fridge at the time.
@@sinkuskiddKnow exactly what you mean. Watched this with my two youngest middle-school children (who happen to be brother and sister!) They noticed me tearing up during that scene😢 and asked me what was wrong, both with me and Mel Gibson’s character. I told them because the dad is hurting inside. It’s all too much. They were sitting on either side of me and both leaned toward me for a simultaneous hug right before the kids in the film came to comfort their dad! 🥲
It wasn't just about the dinner. He was letting go of a lot of anger and pain in that scene. Sort of like a priest might try to help someone do when giving someone their last rites.
I have a massive fear of people/face in windows at night. That scene where they look out the window and it’s on the roof of the barn watching the house terrifies me. Full on shivers.
The other night a car drove by our quiet road, I went to peak out the door curtains and saw a reflection of my dad standing in his white hoodie and dang near had a heart attack. ❤😂😂😂😂😂
@@RealBradMiller the only thing I found unrealistic about the movie... is that they're on a farm. Without so much as a shotgun. Coyotes and kids/the doog are a horrible combination if you have to run from the house however far to tear the coyote away
I was terrified of the movie just from that scene because I had the same paranoia and my cousin stayed in an apartment complex and we could see the roof of the next building every night I checked. It didn’t help I had real encounters with demons standing in doorways either. But now that I have a better understanding it became one of my favorite movies
@@renaudvillacis Isn't he a horrid racist?? And extremely xenophobic of Jewish people?? National Treasure??? Actually this lines up pretty well with the US.
crop circles cant be made with planks of wood and people as the bend of the crops is undamaged and there's never any footprints the people who claimed to have done it said the used pole vaulting into the fields to do this. which is bloody ridiculous.
There are actually some crop circles that can’t be explained lol just wanted to put that out there. They’re done so delicately and pristine that it can’t be done today and especially done in just overnight
Crop circles are not all hoaxes. That idea is ridiculous if you look into the phenomenon for more than 5 minutes. Many are, yes, but there's a big difference between the hoaxes and the unexplainable ones.
Whahahaha! Sure buddy! 🤣If you look at it for 5 minutes, you've already looked too long. They are ALL fakes. That you choose not to believe evidence, is a YOU problem.
This is one of my favorites as well. Grahams speech about the difference in people from "group #1 and group #2" stuck with me for 20 years. I'm not saying it religiously moved me or anything but it did help me put things into a certain perspective. "Less is more with horror"--so true!
Signs is one of my all-time favorite movies. I love the way you experience what the actors are feeling without even seeing anything is brilliant. Also, I have a connection to the Hopkinsville, Kentucky case. My grandfather was a Kentucky State Trooper during this time and had several calls to the Kelly family farm over the years he was stationed in Hopkinsville. When I asked him about the aliens he said if it were experienced by any other family he would have believed it, but the Kellys were known moonshiners who loved their product way too much. The neighboring farms were constantly calling in about the Kellys shooting and raising hell at all hours of the night.
If you think crop circles have been "debunked", watch the Why Files episode about them. They are *far* from debunked. Imagine what else you think is "debunked" is actually not even close to being debunked.
9:28 not all crop circles are hoaxes. 1) in some the wheat is bent at a 90° angle without being bent 2) there are traces of radiation in certain circles 3) there will be after images of the crop circles years later. 4) People have tried and failed to mimic some of the more complicated crop circles 5) some crop circles seem to be mathematical expressions of the cosmos.
Yeah I was coming to this, many of them cannot be explained at all. It seems more like the original ones that emerged inspired propably first to some agencies to quickly shuffle some explanations (there have been some sketchy cases where yes humans have been caught making them, but they did not act like your basic hippies even if dressed as such)(exactly more like govermental people, do not remember excat details, but do that they were clearly odd) to make few of them to just explain the circles away. Then public started to do those and now it's a hobby to some. Most to all who makes them on regular basis knows the stories of the ones that cannot be explained and sees them making those as for one, making something cool and for two kinda responding back (there have usually also been seen activity in skies with those who does it a lot). I'm pretty sure.. from a memory.. that it have been gone as deep as analyzing the bents on molecular level and it seems like the wheat looked like it would've been bent waaayy too fast to be That precisely bent and not break. Every wheat essentially in way too identical angle. I remember for sure that there was some reason why they must've been done essentially in boom in one go. Among other things that does not make sense.
Agreed, they weren't "proven fake" a couple people claimed to be responsible but crop circles have been found all over the world for hundreds of years.
Actually, crop circles have NOT been explained. There are a few which were proven fake, a couple guys admitted to using rope and wood to make particular easy ones ..however there are MANY which are so intricate and which appeared in one night where the grain stalks were bent, not broken that have no explanations.
Yes, because people are entirely unable to do intricate art and work 🤣 And (young) grain certainly can't have a very flexible root, or even roots that are not firmly seated in the ground (yet), so that it doesn't break when bent. Have you ever been on a farm? Do you know where the saying "one twig can break easily, many twigs tied together is strong" comes from? Never mind. You're not an "evidence" type of person, are you? 😉
I’d say the likelihood of them all being fake outweighs the likelihood of a lot being fake but some being real. Unless aliens like to also leave clues there were here that just so happen to also look exactly like things that have been proven to be fake. It’s more likely that the hoaxers methods are more sophisticated than aliens managed to travel to fields, make crop circles and then leave without being detected, filmed or witnessed at all. Especially with how much CCTV and surveillance/cameras there has been implement within the last 20 years.
I agree! Ive been on the fields when these Crop Circles have appeared over night. This guy obviously knows nothing and hasn't done his proper research.
Seemingly "random" words give * everything * meaning to a man who's lost his faith in exactly that. M. Night isn't always great, but, when he is, he's on another level.
One thing that has always hit me while watching this movie, is another subtle detail that I always thought was deliberate. We are shown the crop circles from above, and from that perspective we can see the pattern that is a "sign" of intelligence. But I always noticed that in the scene when the Sheriff comes to the house, and we see her leaving in her car, the way the driveway circle in front of his house feeds into the straight driveway, always reminded me of a crop circle. And then later, we see a bird's eye view of them in the car driving to town, and we see all the shapes of circles and lines in the roads and houses and parking lots, and it all represents "signs" of life and inhabitation. I always felt that was a tie-in to the crop circles as being "signs" of life and intelligence. Like the roads and driveways and city squares are our "crop" circles we've created in what used to be nature. I don't know, maybe I'm seeing too much there, but I noticed it the first time i saw the movie in the theaters, and I've always thought it was deliberate.
Another thing that I think was forgotten in this video was that the mother dreamed of the son before he was born and Bo dreamed of his asthma. I think both were able to have some sort of connection with the future.
@@LuciendaSkyif you actually pay attention the crop circles are told to be maps or landmarks. The “signs” are the constant touches with god he has throughout the movie in the form of flashbacks and his reconnection
they were NOT proven to be a hoax..... the hoax was the ppl claiming they did it. It was later proven they could not have done it...too messy....not perfect
A correction about the account of Job: It wasn't God who wanted to test him, but rather Satan. Satan saw how faithful Job was and wanted to prove that, if the going got tough, Job would curse God and stop serving Him (Job 1:9-11). God _allowed_ the test but he didn't cause it (Job 1:12). Satan also made it appear like it was God who was doing it, most notably by having "fire from God [fall] from the heavens." (Job 1:16) And Job's so-called 'comforters', Eliphaz, Bildad, and Zophar, instead of comforting him, instead said to him that all the things coming upon him were punishments from God for some supposed wickedness on his part. In the 4th chapter of Job, Eliphaz reveals that he was visited one night by a spirit that, judging from its critical words, was likely a wicked spirit, showing that at least one of these 'comforters' had come under demonic influence. (Job 4:12-18) While Job did during his trial lose sight of things and came to focus too much on self-justification - for which he was corrected - he did keep his integrity and his righteousness and was later blessed for doing so.
Let me correct you It was God who suggested Satan to test him not the other way, then proceeds to allow Satan to kill innocent slaves and animals to see if Job would break. God is the villain in this story. He lied to Job and yes Job was innocent despite God coming down and telling him he has no right to say he was innocent. He gaslighted Job and had his kids killed and destroyed his riches only to say its fine i'll give you more riches and more children. Yet no one in their right mind would accept the death of their children and a equal replacement as ok. So God killed slaves for nothing more then a bet and Romans 9 goes to length explaining how we are just objects to be used and we have no say in our life and God will go out of his way to possess you and force you to do things you wouldnt normally do so he can glorify himself.
I agree with you, except I'd like to know why you think Job focused too much on self-justification. The Book of Job says itself that Job was a perfect man. His friends were accusing him of sin, so my perspective is that he was simply defending himself against the false accusations.
@@markvito746 No, "literally" everyone did not love this movie. Many went into it expecting a very different type of film and found the "twist" ending to be pretty silly while the movie itself had a depressing vibe.
errm, no, crop circles werent "proved to be a hoax". yes some were made by people with boards or wood, but that doesnt explain most of them that were made in minutes and were far more detailed than anyone could make with a plank of wood.
There's plenty of crop circles that can't be explained, especially with something as simple as wooden boards and rope. Watch the episode about crop circles on the Why Files.
The music for this movie is embedded into my soul, lmfao. This movie was the first “scary movie” I watched as a five year old. I’ve seen it countless times. I’m 24 now, and after obsessing over it all these years, it’s never gotten boring. It truly is a work of art. Thank you for making this video.
Actually when you use boards to create crop circles it breaks the stock damages it , so not all crop circles have been disproven, , Great movie , now I want to watch it again thanks to this video lol
Regarding crop circles. It's not accurate to say they have proven to be hoaxes. A lot are, but some are still unexplainable. For example, in some cases, the effected crops have bizarre growth sections on them like they were forced to grow by something when the crop circle was made. Others have evidence of coming into contact with some form of energy. Parts of the stems have been blown out, like they were exposed to extreme heat that boiled the water in them, making them rupture. However, there were no scorch marks or conventional burns. Indicating something along the lines of microwave or some other form of radiation caused the heat. Whenever I hear about crop circles, I always react with suspicion. Because of how prevelant hoaxes have been. But the few cases that have anomalous/unexplained aspects to them which prove they were formed by some means we can't explain away... Well, it's that old saying. "Don't throw the baby out with the bath water." That being said, I do believe the whole alien thing to be "demons." The whole argument that they wouldn't need craft is nonsense. When lucifer rebelled, a third of the angels sided with him, and they were all cast out of heaven. 33% of the angels were cast out. 33 is in an interesting number. But that's a whole other tangent. When these angels fell, they were imprisoned in the earth. Cut off from God and his power. They still have some ability we would call supernatural, but not to the extent people assume or typically associate with Gods angels. Now, if you properly understand dimensions, that they are layers to our reality, not alternate universes... An interdimensional craft would be very useful in breaking free of any prison. These angels that fell hate it here. Because we are here. God imprisoned them in their own hell. They desperately want to get back into heaven, but on their own terms as rulers. So in short, to escape this prison, these dimensions they are now constrained in, and force their way back into heaven, an interdimensional vehicle of some sort would be pretty useful to fallen angels. Demons on the other hand are purely spirit beings. The angels sinned against (reproduced with) man and beast when they fell, creating crossbreeds. When they sinned against man, the offspring were giant humanoid creatures called nephelim. When these nephelim were physically destroyed, their spirit remained. And those spirits are what we call demons. They would find any kind of vehicle useful, if they possessed a body to operate it with. I suspect UFO's are the result of technology the fallen angels gave humanity, using demons as their messengers, with the intention of having us build their means of escape and entry to heaven.
The scariest scene of that movie for me is when she listens to the recording and hears her own screams that she doesn't remember. The whole concept underpinning that scene is utterly terrifying to me. Which is why I've never been interested in sleep recordings since watching that movie. I'd rather live in blissful ignorance than learn a terrifying truth that I have no way to fight.
@@zeropolicy7456 Same. The idea of things happening while you sleep and you have no recollection is also terrifying to me. I first got a taste of that with Stephen King's short story "Strawberry Spring" which horrified me. Then this movie...😨😨
Dark skies is a similar movie , similar vibes, also I believe are demonic beings not aliens from another planet in that movie. Chuck missler had good research on these subjects.
Right! It was basically a bet between Lucifer and God to test Job's faith and God was like "bring it" because he knew Job would never falter or waiver in his faith to God and so on and so forth proving Lucifer wrong.
The movie title is a double entendre, obviously the crop circles are "signs" indicating an otherworldly force, but all of the things that happened to the family and all of the little things such as the water, asthma, the baseball bat.. are also "signs" indicating the existence and presence of a higher power, i.e. God. Every tragedy or minor inconvenience was just preparing the family for the end battle against the invading creature (the battle between good and evil). This is the thing that Mel's character realizes by the end, which is why he returns to his faith. At least, that's how I take it.
This is exactly right. There’s no other answer to be honest. As a Christian, it’s obvious to me that it’s not so much about the aliens but the fact that Mel’s character in the movie is was no longer a man of faith but in the end he understands why things happen the way they do. He regained his faith and is happy again.
THat is 10000% what the movie was about. It shows that God is omnipotent and omnipresent, knows the "end" from the beginning. All those issue of fear of water, asthma, swing away ..", the scifi book in the shop that was NOT meant to be delivered there, the fact his brother was over at exactly at that time, the list goes on showing "signs" of God's ever presence in our lives and drawing us to Him and the whole point of signs is to show us that when things happen, sometimes strange things and subtle prompts and awareness of things around us, is Gods way of reminding us to turn around, put our full trust in Him, because he has already seen every intricate detail of our lives and gives us signs (prompts in our heart and thoughts from the Holy Spirit I would say) so that we know he never lies " promised to never leave nor forsake us" ^_^. Great movie...extremely well written, great acting, great story, God is always GOOD.
I can't believe you skipped over one of the most chilling lines in the film.... when he goes to see Shyamalan and finishes his lines with "I trapped one in the kitchen" or something like that... sent chills down my spine in the cinema, also the kids party was the best shot!
There’s a version of the birthday party scene on RUclips where it’s Chris Chan spotted in the background of a news report instead of the alien. It’s incredible. 😂
Another detail about when we see the "alien" at outside the children's party, one child is saying "esta ayi" or "he's right there" in English and then "en behind" in Spanish accent. This means that child noticed it in the bushes.
The crop field circles was never debunked. They tried the board technique in the attempt to recreate them and explain how it was done. Although they did manage to recreate those crop circle signs. They failed to do so without breaking the stems of the corn and wheat in those fields. The crop circle signs didn’t have broken stems. They were bent all the way over and down without breaking. Which was impossible to recreate.
Finally another comment left with some sense. Drives me nuts that he fell for the fake debunk of crop circles. Some are so perfect and complex as well.
8:46 they were not proven to be a hoax. 2 dudes that claimed credit for the UK crop circles were never able to reproduce one as intricate or with undamaged crop stems.
exactly! not to mention the legit crop circles even show traces in the next years crop. their color is different and you can still see the images. so sure there are hoaxes but some are still extremely unexplained.
Some have been seen by orbs creating them and caught on camera. RUclips orbs makes crop circle or Google it. There use to be one on youtube of a legit orb making one.
SOME of the crop circles were indeed manmade......... others...... not so much..... even science has said so. And Signs is also one of my favorite movies.
The time I was about to start making the script for my analysis over Signs (2002) you release this video. I guess you saved me some time from my research Paul
Do your own research dude, don't be lazy. Making youtube videos based on youtube videos based on other people's movies? I hope you have a real job son.
The scene in the bookstore where we see/hear the Shasta cola commercial is also a nod to Mount Shasta. Mt Shasta has a lot of weirdness surrounding it, including lots of UFO sightings, Lemurians, lizard people, The People of the Mount, etc.
Crop circles were not proven to be a hoax, it was true that a few bearded farmers tried to replicate them but they had problems creating the patterns and the radiation after effects.
I have an interesting idea about Bo and Coleen. I think that they are both somewhat prescient. Think the shining in Stephen King’s works. There are a few references to both of their dreams throughout the film. Colleen says to Morgan, “You look just how I dreamed.” And after the accident, she’s able to say just the right things to Graham to prepare him for what’s coming. Bo has bad dreams and bad feelings throughout. This explains her nonchalant reactions to most of the events of the film. She’s already seen them in her dreams, and she already knows what’s going to happen. She’s way too calm when she says there’s a monster outside her room. Any kid (and probably a lot of adults) would be a lot more freaked out. But she’s already seen it, and knows how to handle it.
The dogs also seem to react poorly to the aliens... and one tries to attack Bo. From the alien angel, this could be some sort of 'star child' bloodline, which is why the kids were targeted. From the Demon angel, same thing but maybe Nephilim instead of Star Child.
The studies around the crop circles that are real and how they impact the plant is so wild. They've been like radiated/microwaved and it actually encourages stronger growth within the plants and doesn't actually damage the plants. Fake crop circles break the plants stalk and kill the plant.
I was just going to post the same thing. Yes, there are plenty of hoax circles. But when you see the real ones, they look completely different. Pretty easy to pick out.
No not really. Demons don’t exist, aliens, statistically speaking, do probably exist. Will we ever encounter them? Not likely, the universe is just too big.
Looking back, Signs was a pretty good movie. It got a lot of hate for being silly, but it did a great job of focusing on the humans and how they are reacting to the unknown. The aliens could be metaphors for almost anything. During corona 2019, we saw a lot of the same behaviors happening. Some said corona was the end of humans, some said it wasn't real, some said it was real but overblown so the government could expand. Nobody knew what the right answer, so everyone went in their own direction. It was fascinating to watch. Just like the aliens in Signs, it suddenly went away and we all went back to normal.
It's pretty easy to spot fake crop circles from "real" ones. The fake ones are bent and broken at the pressure point, while real ones have a popcorn like effect that bends the plants horizontally. This is not my opinion. Just something I've noticed in a lot of crop circle videos. Great video, as usual. Love this channel. Subbing.
Science has studied the real crop circles, they don't kill plants and they seem to be hit with radiation/microwaves in such a manner that actually encourages plant growth. After a couple of days, the plants stand up right and continue growing.
While most crop circles are fakes, there are a few that are quite puzzling - microwave burst the plant stalks in a perfect planar feature. The why files does a good video on them.
After I saw this in the theater, I walked out to the parking lot and saw the same SUV Ray drove in the movie, make, model, and color. 😱 That gave me a bit of a jump scare. Signs is my favorite M. Night Shyamalan movie and the only one I bought on DVD.
This is definitely my favorite of his movies and I still get chills at certain scenes. Definitely when he's running through the cornfield and sees the foot. Such a fun movie I just feel like it didn't quite end as well as it could have.
At home in bed after seeing this movie. My bed faced a window that had a view of the roof. Lol You can bet I was sure that I saw an alien up there and had to get out of bed to calm myself down.
Dude the REAL crop circles are still legit. Not those two old guys making them. Look it up and do the proper research. Real crops are blown out internally from heat - not pressed over with boards. They are also way too complex to do in 6 hours of darkness.
Ppl want to believe crop circles are a hoax but if you look into it, especially the testimony of the two guys who claim to be the hoaxers you'll see just how ridiculous that explanation is
@benjalucian1515 I feel bad that u think that, there are some copy cats but the real shit, they're able to lay down the wheat to where there is NO DAMAGE to the plant at all, there has also been strange magnetic fields on some of them, there was even a response to the gold record nasa sent to deep space, and in the ones thought to be real or at least unexplainable theres no walking path to the crop circle itself, thats literally impossible to acomplish....you don't find this kind of evidence in ANY of the hoaxes, it blows my mind how people can be so antagonistic to the things that challenge what they "know" to be true. The us government lied to the American people for years about investigation of ufo/uap and recently released footage of the military tracking ufo's and as soon as those two British cats, without a shred of evidence BTW, claimed to be hoaxers that's the only reply we get when bringing up the unexplainable
I make a lot of joke about films that scared me as a kid, but genuinely still feel my childhood aversion to watching this creeeeep back up when i watch it 22 years later. BRILLIANT movie.
I think that Signs might honestly be Shyamalan's best work. How much you get out of it depends a lot on whether you believe in, or are at least creeped out by, aliens, but it's inarguable that the movie is immensely suspenseful. It's basically an hour and a half of slow, ominous dread, with the threats (and knowledge of them) parceled out at just the right pace. The ending "twist" is of course garbage, as are the creature effects, but everything else is top-notch. This is a great, great thriller.

The problem I have with the movie is that we're supposed to believe an advanced civilization would come to a planet where 75% of the surface is covered in a substance that will kill them if touched. The humidity in the air would alone would be enough to fry their lungs (if they have them), or at least irritate their skin. The movie itself shows scenes of mist and fog creeping along the ground. There is no way an organism adverse to water could possibly exist on Earth. That would be like humans breathing in an atmosphere of sulfuric acid.

Its possible that they don't take back ANY wounded. So Mel's character cutting the creatures fingers off was much worse than a wound. It was a death sentence or worse, being captured.
If they were demons, then maybe being wounded and dying was just a short cut back to spawn point.
I remember reading somewhere on a different comment that the Alien was actually the demon haunting Mel Gibsons character as he was locked behind a door at Rays house (the man who ran over Mels wife) Once Ray asked Gram for forgiveness he was able to let go of it and now it was just up to Gram to forgive him so that he can get rid of the Demon. At the end of the film he regains his faith and tells Morgan someone did save him (God). Thus finally being able to let go of it.
"Daddy, there's a monster outside my window, can i have a glass of water?"
Basically the whole movie right there 😁
I found it dumb that they never left the farm or Graham armed himself with a gun.
You people obviously haven't had Aliens come to your farmhouse
@anubusx That is most likely why they made him a Man of God, so that it wouldn't be out of the question that he doesn't ever get a gun. And Idk where they would go if they left the farm. It seems they are they only ones left of their family. And if their income _comes_ from running the farm, they are basically protecting their business and way of life by not going anywhere.
@@generaljj71
They came to my house once.
Signs is probably one of the only few movies that actually creep me out on a very deep level. The fact that the aliens are hidden (almost besides the TV broadcast--and even then that was terrify as hell--) until the end was very intriguing to me because as a kid watching this I was like "I wanna see what they look like!" Then the pantry scene happened, I suddenly felt "oh... this isnt as fun anymore." Plus the differing views of everyone on this entire phenomena really felt like I was living in the moment. I especially remember the bookstore guy going "THERES SO MANY COLA ADS. ITS ALL A CONSPIRACY". Meanwhile ignoring the fact that a little girl is saying something is wrong with their water (although with her older brother saying its just a tick, still... something I would've considered being a theorist in that universe at that time.
Now... the most creepy and disturbing part of the movie was when everything finally happens. The TV signals go out. Radios are silent. Indicatiing this is happening on a global scale, EVERYONE is now fighting for their lives... And then you see the shadows start coming through from outside. This movie perfectly set up how to unsettle a viewer with minimal visuals but maximal storytelling.
THEN YOU ACTUALLY SEE THE ONE ALIEN AND ACTUALLY SEE HOW SPOOKY THEY ARE.
I love this film. One of my favorites. One that I come back to to rewatch whenever I wanna feel like "spooky" feeling again. I havent found a movie (other than maybe Blair Witch Project) that made be feel genuinely worried of what were in the shadows.
Great video!!

@@Defensive_WoundsLove Cloverfield. I know a lot of people hate the “shaky cam” aspect of it, but it’s one my favorites of all time.

Scene makes me ball lmao such great acting
@@sinkuskiddKnow exactly what you mean. Watched this with my two youngest middle-school children (who happen to be brother and sister!) They noticed me tearing up during that scene😢 and asked me what was wrong, both with me and Mel Gibson’s character. I told them because the dad is hurting inside. It’s all too much. They were sitting on either side of me and both leaned toward me for a simultaneous hug right before the kids in the film came to comfort their dad! 🥲
It wasn't just about the dinner. He was letting go of a lot of anger and pain in that scene. Sort of like a priest might try to help someone do when giving someone their last rites.
"Swing away, Merrill" is one of the greatest lines in movie history.
Absolutely beautiful writing.
I have a massive fear of people/face in windows at night. That scene where they look out the window and it’s on the roof of the barn watching the house terrifies me. Full on shivers.
The other night a car drove by our quiet road, I went to peak out the door curtains and saw a reflection of my dad standing in his white hoodie and dang near had a heart attack. ❤😂😂😂😂😂
@@RealBradMiller That's what you get for being a (to the outside) peeping Tom, lol. 👻
Unfortunately this movie has made me horrified of open windows.
@@RealBradMiller the only thing I found unrealistic about the movie... is that they're on a farm. Without so much as a shotgun. Coyotes and kids/the doog are a horrible combination if you have to run from the house however far to tear the coyote away
I was terrified of the movie just from that scene because I had the same paranoia and my cousin stayed in an apartment complex and we could see the roof of the next building every night I checked. It didn’t help I had real encounters with demons standing in doorways either. But now that I have a better understanding it became one of my favorite movies
Mel’s acting actually brought the kids to tears in the last supper scene. Scary man.
He was channeling the anger and sadness he felt from who was ultimately producing and benefiting from the film.
Mel Gibsons emotional scenes get me misty-eyed every time. In 'The Patriot' when hisyoungest iskilled takes the cake.

crop circles cant be made with planks of wood and people as the bend of the crops is undamaged and there's never any footprints the people who claimed to have done it said the used pole vaulting into the fields to do this. which is bloody ridiculous.
the "What I've Done" cut got a genuine chuckle out of me
Same lol
There are actually some crop circles that can’t be explained lol just wanted to put that out there. They’re done so delicately and pristine that it can’t be done today and especially done in just overnight
B.S. 🤣
Correction. Crop circles were not proven to be a hoax. Some were yes. But certainly not all. It’s a global phenomenon
Nope
Crop circles are not all hoaxes. That idea is ridiculous if you look into the phenomenon for more than 5 minutes. Many are, yes, but there's a big difference between the hoaxes and the unexplainable ones.
Whahahaha! Sure buddy! 🤣If you look at it for 5 minutes, you've already looked too long. They are ALL fakes. That you choose not to believe evidence, is a YOU problem.
This is one of my favorites as well. Grahams speech about the difference in people from "group #1 and group #2" stuck with me for 20 years. I'm not saying it religiously moved me or anything but it did help me put things into a certain perspective. "Less is more with horror"--so true!
Signs is one of my all-time favorite movies. I love the way you experience what the actors are feeling without even seeing anything is brilliant. Also, I have a connection to the Hopkinsville, Kentucky case. My grandfather was a Kentucky State Trooper during this time and had several calls to the Kelly family farm over the years he was stationed in Hopkinsville. When I asked him about the aliens he said if it were experienced by any other family he would have believed it, but the Kellys were known moonshiners who loved their product way too much. The neighboring farms were constantly calling in about the Kellys shooting and raising hell at all hours of the night.
It just goes to show that there is frequently a mundane, rational explanation for such stories.

If you think crop circles have been "debunked", watch the Why Files episode about them. They are *far* from debunked. Imagine what else you think is "debunked" is actually not even close to being debunked.
To be fair, I don't think crop circles have been debunked, certainly not all of them.
I agree
9:28 not all crop circles are hoaxes. 1) in some the wheat is bent at a 90° angle without being bent 2) there are traces of radiation in certain circles 3) there will be after images of the crop circles years later. 4) People have tried and failed to mimic some of the more complicated crop circles 5) some crop circles seem to be mathematical expressions of the cosmos.
Yeah I was coming to this, many of them cannot be explained at all. It seems more like the original ones that emerged inspired propably first to some agencies to quickly shuffle some explanations (there have been some sketchy cases where yes humans have been caught making them, but they did not act like your basic hippies even if dressed as such)(exactly more like govermental people, do not remember excat details, but do that they were clearly odd) to make few of them to just explain the circles away. Then public started to do those and now it's a hobby to some. Most to all who makes them on regular basis knows the stories of the ones that cannot be explained and sees them making those as for one, making something cool and for two kinda responding back (there have usually also been seen activity in skies with those who does it a lot).
I'm pretty sure.. from a memory.. that it have been gone as deep as analyzing the bents on molecular level and it seems like the wheat looked like it would've been bent waaayy too fast to be That precisely bent and not break. Every wheat essentially in way too identical angle. I remember for sure that there was some reason why they must've been done essentially in boom in one go. Among other things that does not make sense.
Hahahahaha! 🤣ALL crop circles are fakes, buddy. They can ALL be explained. That you choose not to believe that, is a YOU problem.
Agreed, they weren't "proven fake" a couple people claimed to be responsible but crop circles have been found all over the world for hundreds of years.
@@_--JohnVK--_ BS
Actually, crop circles have NOT been explained. There are a few which were proven fake, a couple guys admitted to using rope and wood to make particular easy ones ..however there are MANY which are so intricate and which appeared in one night where the grain stalks were bent, not broken that have no explanations.
Yes, because people are entirely unable to do intricate art and work 🤣 And (young) grain certainly can't have a very flexible root, or even roots that are not firmly seated in the ground (yet), so that it doesn't break when bent. Have you ever been on a farm? Do you know where the saying "one twig can break easily, many twigs tied together is strong" comes from? Never mind. You're not an "evidence" type of person, are you? 😉
Not all crop circles were hoaxes. The ones where the stalks aren't broken but just bend are real.
I’d say the likelihood of them all being fake outweighs the likelihood of a lot being fake but some being real. Unless aliens like to also leave clues there were here that just so happen to also look exactly like things that have been proven to be fake. It’s more likely that the hoaxers methods are more sophisticated than aliens managed to travel to fields, make crop circles and then leave without being detected, filmed or witnessed at all. Especially with how much CCTV and surveillance/cameras there has been implement within the last 20 years.
I agree! Ive been on the fields when these Crop Circles have appeared over night. This guy obviously knows nothing and hasn't done his proper research.

@ Joaquin killed it in that movie, too!
@ Joaquin absolutely crushed it in that movie, too.
One thing that has always hit me while watching this movie, is another subtle detail that I always thought was deliberate. We are shown the crop circles from above, and from that perspective we can see the pattern that is a "sign" of intelligence. But I always noticed that in the scene when the Sheriff comes to the house, and we see her leaving in her car, the way the driveway circle in front of his house feeds into the straight driveway, always reminded me of a crop circle. And then later, we see a bird's eye view of them in the car driving to town, and we see all the shapes of circles and lines in the roads and houses and parking lots, and it all represents "signs" of life and inhabitation. I always felt that was a tie-in to the crop circles as being "signs" of life and intelligence. Like the roads and driveways and city squares are our "crop" circles we've created in what used to be nature. I don't know, maybe I'm seeing too much there, but I noticed it the first time i saw the movie in the theaters, and I've always thought it was deliberate.
I also felt those things as well. Seeing the town from above and seeing all the signs below of life.
Another thing that I think was forgotten in this video was that the mother dreamed of the son before he was born and Bo dreamed of his asthma. I think both were able to have some sort of connection with the future.
@@LuciendaSkyif you actually pay attention the crop circles are told to be maps or landmarks. The “signs” are the constant touches with god he has throughout the movie in the form of flashbacks and his reconnection
they were NOT proven to be a hoax..... the hoax was the ppl claiming they did it. It was later proven they could not have done it...too messy....not perfect
I'll never understand why we never had another alien movie like this... This is what true horror should be
“The meaning behind anything can be formed on whether you wish to see it, or you don’t. Do you see the signs”?….
Great quote.
there are still crop images unexplained
A correction about the account of Job: It wasn't God who wanted to test him, but rather Satan. Satan saw how faithful Job was and wanted to prove that, if the going got tough, Job would curse God and stop serving Him (Job 1:9-11). God _allowed_ the test but he didn't cause it (Job 1:12). Satan also made it appear like it was God who was doing it, most notably by having "fire from God [fall] from the heavens." (Job 1:16) And Job's so-called 'comforters', Eliphaz, Bildad, and Zophar, instead of comforting him, instead said to him that all the things coming upon him were punishments from God for some supposed wickedness on his part. In the 4th chapter of Job, Eliphaz reveals that he was visited one night by a spirit that, judging from its critical words, was likely a wicked spirit, showing that at least one of these 'comforters' had come under demonic influence. (Job 4:12-18) While Job did during his trial lose sight of things and came to focus too much on self-justification - for which he was corrected - he did keep his integrity and his righteousness and was later blessed for doing so.
Let me correct you It was God who suggested Satan to test him not the other way, then proceeds to allow Satan to kill innocent slaves and animals to see if Job would break. God is the villain in this story. He lied to Job and yes Job was innocent despite God coming down and telling him he has no right to say he was innocent. He gaslighted Job and had his kids killed and destroyed his riches only to say its fine i'll give you more riches and more children. Yet no one in their right mind would accept the death of their children and a equal replacement as ok. So God killed slaves for nothing more then a bet and Romans 9 goes to length explaining how we are just objects to be used and we have no say in our life and God will go out of his way to possess you and force you to do things you wouldnt normally do so he can glorify himself.
Somebody didn't skip Sunday school.
I agree with you, except I'd like to know why you think Job focused too much on self-justification. The Book of Job says itself that Job was a perfect man. His friends were accusing him of sin, so my perspective is that he was simply defending himself against the false accusations.
This guy is right. It's not that he paid attention in Sunday school is that he actually took the time to read the book.

errm, no, crop circles werent "proved to be a hoax". yes some were made by people with boards or wood, but that doesnt explain most of them that were made in minutes and were far more detailed than anyone could make with a plank of wood.
There's plenty of crop circles that can't be explained, especially with something as simple as wooden boards and rope. Watch the episode about crop circles on the Why Files.
Not all crop circles were hoaxes.
The music for this movie is embedded into my soul, lmfao. This movie was the first “scary movie” I watched as a five year old. I’ve seen it countless times. I’m 24 now, and after obsessing over it all these years, it’s never gotten boring. It truly is a work of art. Thank you for making this video.
Actually when you use boards to create crop circles it breaks the stock damages it , so not all crop circles have been disproven, , Great movie , now I want to watch it again thanks to this video lol
YES! Thank you
You’re wrong. Only Some are fake. But some are unexplainable
Regarding crop circles. It's not accurate to say they have proven to be hoaxes. A lot are, but some are still unexplainable. For example, in some cases, the effected crops have bizarre growth sections on them like they were forced to grow by something when the crop circle was made. Others have evidence of coming into contact with some form of energy. Parts of the stems have been blown out, like they were exposed to extreme heat that boiled the water in them, making them rupture. However, there were no scorch marks or conventional burns. Indicating something along the lines of microwave or some other form of radiation caused the heat.
Whenever I hear about crop circles, I always react with suspicion. Because of how prevelant hoaxes have been. But the few cases that have anomalous/unexplained aspects to them which prove they were formed by some means we can't explain away... Well, it's that old saying. "Don't throw the baby out with the bath water."
That being said, I do believe the whole alien thing to be "demons." The whole argument that they wouldn't need craft is nonsense. When lucifer rebelled, a third of the angels sided with him, and they were all cast out of heaven. 33% of the angels were cast out. 33 is in an interesting number. But that's a whole other tangent.
When these angels fell, they were imprisoned in the earth. Cut off from God and his power. They still have some ability we would call supernatural, but not to the extent people assume or typically associate with Gods angels. Now, if you properly understand dimensions, that they are layers to our reality, not alternate universes... An interdimensional craft would be very useful in breaking free of any prison. These angels that fell hate it here. Because we are here. God imprisoned them in their own hell. They desperately want to get back into heaven, but on their own terms as rulers.
So in short, to escape this prison, these dimensions they are now constrained in, and force their way back into heaven, an interdimensional vehicle of some sort would be pretty useful to fallen angels.
Demons on the other hand are purely spirit beings. The angels sinned against (reproduced with) man and beast when they fell, creating crossbreeds. When they sinned against man, the offspring were giant humanoid creatures called nephelim. When these nephelim were physically destroyed, their spirit remained. And those spirits are what we call demons. They would find any kind of vehicle useful, if they possessed a body to operate it with.
I suspect UFO's are the result of technology the fallen angels gave humanity, using demons as their messengers, with the intention of having us build their means of escape and entry to heaven.
I agree 100%
The Fourth Kind messed me up. It was terrifying.
Yeah that one scene is nightmare fuel

The scariest scene of that movie for me is when she listens to the recording and hears her own screams that she doesn't remember. The whole concept underpinning that scene is utterly terrifying to me. Which is why I've never been interested in sleep recordings since watching that movie.

@@zeropolicy7456 Same. The idea of things happening while you sleep and you have no recollection is also terrifying to me. I first got a taste of that with Stephen King's short story "Strawberry Spring" which horrified me. Then this movie...😨😨

Dark skies is a similar movie , similar vibes, also I believe are demonic beings not aliens from another planet in that movie. Chuck missler had good research on these subjects.
Right! It was basically a bet between Lucifer and God to test Job's faith and God was like "bring it" because he knew Job would never falter or waiver in his faith to God and so on and so forth proving Lucifer wrong.
🙌 yep, God was bragging about how faithful Job was!
There is no god get over it
@ladyravenmoon666 It's strange that you're so animated by something that doesn't exist.
I’m so glad to hear I wasn’t the only person who LOVED this movie.
The movie title is a double entendre, obviously the crop circles are "signs" indicating an otherworldly force, but all of the things that happened to the family and all of the little things such as the water, asthma, the baseball bat.. are also "signs" indicating the existence and presence of a higher power, i.e. God. Every tragedy or minor inconvenience was just preparing the family for the end battle against the invading creature (the battle between good and evil). This is the thing that Mel's character realizes by the end, which is why he returns to his faith. At least, that's how I take it.
This is exactly right. There’s no other answer to be honest. As a Christian, it’s obvious to me that it’s not so much about the aliens but the fact that Mel’s character in the movie is was no longer a man of faith but in the end he understands why things happen the way they do. He regained his faith and is happy again.
God makes sure everything works to His Will whether He initiates it, or it be human free will. And thankfully so.
100%. That what I got from it
THat is 10000% what the movie was about. It shows that God is omnipotent and omnipresent, knows the "end" from the beginning. All those issue of fear of water, asthma, swing away ..", the scifi book in the shop that was NOT meant to be delivered there, the fact his brother was over at exactly at that time, the list goes on showing "signs" of God's ever presence in our lives and drawing us to Him and the whole point of signs is to show us that when things happen, sometimes strange things and subtle prompts and awareness of things around us, is Gods way of reminding us to turn around, put our full trust in Him, because he has already seen every intricate detail of our lives and gives us signs (prompts in our heart and thoughts from the Holy Spirit I would say) so that we know he never lies " promised to never leave nor forsake us" ^_^.
Great movie...extremely well written, great acting, great story, God is always GOOD.
Crop circles have not been debunked.
I can't believe you skipped over one of the most chilling lines in the film.... when he goes to see Shyamalan and finishes his lines with "I trapped one in the kitchen" or something like that... sent chills down my spine in the cinema, also the kids party was the best shot!
It was like his demons and guilt took on a physical form that only the man he hurt could exorcize.
Crop circles dismissed as hokesI didn't know!!!
Actually, while most crop circles were hoaxes, there were many that remain unexplained and could not have been made by guys with a board.
Show me any data saying most are hoaxes.
There’s a version of the birthday party scene on RUclips where it’s Chris Chan spotted in the background of a news report instead of the alien. It’s incredible. 😂
Why do they keep letting him get away with it!!!!!
I feel like you can replace any Cryptid with Chris Chan and it just works 😂😂😂😂
That's terrifying
Oooh, I was just looking for something to watch and found this just a minute after release. Surely it must be a sign, ba-dum-tss
!!!!!!!!
I remember driving home after watching this, I thought I saw an Alien trying to cross the street multiple times. Man this film got me.
THEY WERE NOT PROVEN TO BE A HOAX. YOU'VE BEEN SUBVERTED.
Another detail about when we see the "alien" at outside the children's party, one child is saying "esta ayi" or "he's right there" in English and then "en behind" in Spanish accent. This means that child noticed it in the bushes.
The crop field circles was never debunked.
They tried the board technique in the attempt to recreate them and explain how it was done.
Although they did manage to recreate those crop circle signs.
They failed to do so without breaking the stems of the corn and wheat in those fields.
The crop circle signs didn’t have broken stems.
They were bent all the way over and down without breaking.
Which was impossible to recreate.
Finally another comment left with some sense. Drives me nuts that he fell for the fake debunk of crop circles. Some are so perfect and complex as well.
I love these classic breakdowns, I always end up rewatching the films.
Thank you mate
8:46 they were not proven to be a hoax. 2 dudes that claimed credit for the UK crop circles were never able to reproduce one as intricate or with undamaged crop stems.
exactly! not to mention the legit crop circles even show traces in the next years crop. their color is different and you can still see the images. so sure there are hoaxes but some are still extremely unexplained.
Most people can’t believe in aliens no matter the evidence presented. It’s scary for them.
seriously. super lazy to write them off as hoax.
Absolute nonsense. They are a hoax.
Some have been seen by orbs creating them and caught on camera. RUclips orbs makes crop circle or Google it. There use to be one on youtube of a legit orb making one.
SOME of the crop circles were indeed manmade......... others...... not so much..... even science has said so. And Signs is also one of my favorite movies.
The alien in Brazil left more Brazilian people traumatized than the 7x1 loss to Germany.
Lets be clear, most crop circles have been explained away with boards, but not all.
Not even most. Some.
The time I was about to start making the script for my analysis over Signs (2002) you release this video. I guess you saved me some time from my research Paul
Do your own research dude, don't be lazy. Making youtube videos based on youtube videos based on other people's movies? I hope you have a real job son.
Funniest scene when the brother says Move children, Vamanos lol. I laugh every time.
The scene in the bookstore where we see/hear the Shasta cola commercial is also a nod to Mount Shasta. Mt Shasta has a lot of weirdness surrounding it, including lots of UFO sightings, Lemurians, lizard people, The People of the Mount, etc.
Crop circles were not proven to be a hoax, it was true that a few bearded farmers tried to replicate them but they had problems creating the patterns and the radiation after effects.
thank you!!! ive waited years for a good breakdown on my favorite movie
I have an interesting idea about Bo and Coleen. I think that they are both somewhat prescient. Think the shining in Stephen King’s works. There are a few references to both of their dreams throughout the film. Colleen says to Morgan, “You look just how I dreamed.” And after the accident, she’s able to say just the right things to Graham to prepare him for what’s coming. Bo has bad dreams and bad feelings throughout. This explains her nonchalant reactions to most of the events of the film. She’s already seen them in her dreams, and she already knows what’s going to happen. She’s way too calm when she says there’s a monster outside her room. Any kid (and probably a lot of adults) would be a lot more freaked out. But she’s already seen it, and knows how to handle it.
The dogs also seem to react poorly to the aliens... and one tries to attack Bo.
From the alien angel, this could be some sort of 'star child' bloodline, which is why the kids were targeted.
From the Demon angel, same thing but maybe Nephilim instead of Star Child.
Gibson and Shyamalan. What a riot those two must be.
Every night they were probably taking each other out fishing for trout left handed down that peculiar river.
Crop circles are real. There are fake ones, but there are ways to tell if they are genuine.
The studies around the crop circles that are real and how they impact the plant is so wild. They've been like radiated/microwaved and it actually encourages stronger growth within the plants and doesn't actually damage the plants.
Fake crop circles break the plants stalk and kill the plant.
I was just going to post the same thing. Yes, there are plenty of hoax circles. But when you see the real ones, they look completely different. Pretty easy to pick out.
Do some more research, there are plenty of crop circles the are 100% impossible to be recreated from people with boards
I really like the demon angle. I feel that this changes the entire movie for the better.
No not really. Demons don’t exist, aliens, statistically speaking, do probably exist. Will we ever encounter them? Not likely, the universe is just too big.
It's not an angle. That is what they are and always have been.
Demon 🫤 yeah sure
It also kinda makes sense
@@williamerazo3921 Thank goodness someone else here finds this "demon" !@#$ ridiculous.
Looking back, Signs was a pretty good movie. It got a lot of hate for being silly, but it did a great job of focusing on the humans and how they are reacting to the unknown. The aliens could be metaphors for almost anything. During corona 2019, we saw a lot of the same behaviors happening. Some said corona was the end of humans, some said it wasn't real, some said it was real but overblown so the government could expand. Nobody knew what the right answer, so everyone went in their own direction. It was fascinating to watch. Just like the aliens in Signs, it suddenly went away and we all went back to normal.
So... the Aliens came from a Chinese lab?
8:46 SOME were proven to be a hoax. Some are too perfect to be a hoax
Too perfect like people haven’t done things like make stone look like transparent clothing with nothing but a chisel
One of the best theater experiences I've ever had. Right next to the re-release of E.T in 85.
It's pretty easy to spot fake crop circles from "real" ones. The fake ones are bent and broken at the pressure point, while real ones have a popcorn like effect that bends the plants horizontally. This is not my opinion. Just something I've noticed in a lot of crop circle videos. Great video, as usual. Love this channel. Subbing.
Science has studied the real crop circles, they don't kill plants and they seem to be hit with radiation/microwaves in such a manner that actually encourages plant growth. After a couple of days, the plants stand up right and continue growing.
15:33 the pharmacist worried about the end of the world plays a nurse in The Walking Dead. Looks like her worries panned out for her
Screw Denise! Stealing Abraham’s epic death
Lmfaooo
Scotty steiner math promo, love it
Best part of the whole thing
I believe some crop circles were real...too bad he speaks so fast...no offense
While most crop circles are fakes, there are a few that are quite puzzling - microwave burst the plant stalks in a perfect planar feature.
The why files does a good video on them.
I used to watch The Why Files, but while a lot of people may like it, the annoying goldfish got too grating for me after a while.
Favorite film ever!
After I saw this in the theater, I walked out to the parking lot and saw the same SUV Ray drove in the movie, make, model, and color. 😱 That gave me a bit of a jump scare.
Signs is my favorite M. Night Shyamalan movie and the only one I bought on DVD.
This movie signs was legitimately the most creepy movie I've seen since nightmare on elm Street way back in the 80s
That "What I've Done" ending was genius. 🤣 it's funny, but it actually fits with the themes of this movie. 💯
This is definitely my favorite of his movies and I still get chills at certain scenes. Definitely when he's running through the cornfield and sees the foot. Such a fun movie I just feel like it didn't quite end as well as it could have.
At home in bed after seeing this movie. My bed faced a window that had a view of the roof. Lol You can bet I was sure that I saw an alien up there and had to get out of bed to calm myself down.
1:49 poor guy was just looking for Lilo
20:00 probably the most incorrect summary of the book of Job you could ever make
Thank you I was waiting for this breakdown! Well done Paul!!
Dude the REAL crop circles are still legit. Not those two old guys making them. Look it up and do the proper research. Real crops are blown out internally from heat - not pressed over with boards. They are also way too complex to do in 6 hours of darkness.
I love how you point out the demons theory and then immediately talk about the birds hitting the space ships that demons wouldn't have.
Ppl want to believe crop circles are a hoax but if you look into it, especially the testimony of the two guys who claim to be the hoaxers you'll see just how ridiculous that explanation is
“It’s easier to scam someone than it is to convince them they’ve been scammed”
It was *started* by these two guys. Copy catters took over from there.
@benjalucian1515 I feel bad that u think that, there are some copy cats but the real shit, they're able to lay down the wheat to where there is NO DAMAGE to the plant at all, there has also been strange magnetic fields on some of them, there was even a response to the gold record nasa sent to deep space, and in the ones thought to be real or at least unexplainable theres no walking path to the crop circle itself, thats literally impossible to acomplish....you don't find this kind of evidence in ANY of the hoaxes, it blows my mind how people can be so antagonistic to the things that challenge what they "know" to be true. The us government lied to the American people for years about investigation of ufo/uap and recently released footage of the military tracking ufo's and as soon as those two British cats, without a shred of evidence BTW, claimed to be hoaxers that's the only reply we get when bringing up the unexplainable
I make a lot of joke about films that scared me as a kid, but genuinely still feel my childhood aversion to watching this creeeeep back up when i watch it 22 years later. BRILLIANT movie.
Ok that Michael Bay cut was absolutely hilarious
Great video (as always) Thank you for the breakdown 😁
Not all crop circles are hoaxes. Many are, and many cannot be explained by boards on strings.
Stop noticing things.
I hope you're well Paul. I always enjoyed this movie, glad to see this breakdown.
Someone told you crop circles were a hoax and you said "okay"? Why should we listen to someone as credulous as you?
I agree! He hasn't done his research.
I think that Signs might honestly be Shyamalan's best work. How much you get out of it depends a lot on whether you believe in, or are at least creeped out by, aliens, but it's inarguable that the movie is immensely suspenseful. It's basically an hour and a half of slow, ominous dread, with the threats (and knowledge of them) parceled out at just the right pace. The ending "twist" is of course garbage, as are the creature effects, but everything else is top-notch. This is a great, great thriller.
I appreciated the Steiner Math reference
The chasing the alien out of the house peeing caught me off guard; launching Pepsi max all over my desk from my nose 😂 100% worth the clean up tho 😂
