I don´t get why everyone seems to hate this movie.
After all, I think it wasn´t that bad. I actually liked it.

Then again, there wasn´t any possibility that any movie might get worse than "Lady in the Water".

At the end they should have revealed that Poison Ivy was the mastermind behind the whole thing.

I luckily didn't have to pay for this film, as I work in a theatre, but if I had paid for it, I would have been pissed.
Nothing feels cohesive, the concept is great, but very poorly executed, and none of the actors seem to really care about each other.
It was just a fail, honestly.

It started out well enough and there were some chilling set pieces, but on the whole it was a terrible film. It was poorly acted, poorly directed, poorly written, but blessedly short. James Newton Howard's score was beautiful, but distracting and out-of-place.

Just because it's rated R doesn't mean it'll automatically rock your socks off. I should have realized that it was going to suck mightily after the marketing people really started pushing the R-rated aspect of it as a selling point.

The final three trailers in the pack were better than the entire movie they were attached to: Babylon A.D., The X-Files: I Want to Believe, and Mirrors.

Hi guys...Sorry I made such a bad film. My heart just wasn't into it since FOX wouldn't let me write myself in as a major character. I'm sorry for the insipid dialogue, slow pacing and overall retarded premise. I really phoned this one in. First, I must give an overdue thanks to Dan Lauria (The Wonder Years) for introducing me to Hollywood and helped me get my first gig with the film WIDE AWAKE that starred Rosie O'Donnell. Dan's a great actor and I never once gave him a part in any of my films because I believed I was a better actor.

Now, since I'm being forthcoming, let's take a look at my other "great" achievements:

The Sixth Sense = Truth be told, I read this book by Richard Matheson called Stir of Echoes and I stole the entire story and just renamed it.

Unbreakable = well, I stole that from my kid.

Signs = I stole this from an assortment of David Koepp material. He even later discussed me in various interviews of how much I seem to borrow from him. Well, I love the guy's work and will continue to steal from him in the future.

The Village = While digging through my kids' bedroom, I found one of their school books and loved the cover which features a young blind girl, in a red cloak...the book's called RUNNING OUT OF TIME. It's published by Scholastic. I'll admit that I stole the entire story and retitled it. The author got pissed, sued Disney and they paid out 10 million dollars. Then we collaborated on a public story saying that we had "creative" differences and my contract was severed. Oops.

Lady in the Water = I thought for my next, I should steal from the foreign market...I found this BETA tape of a film called The Time Travelers and I wrote the same story, in English, and called it my fairytale. Nobody understood it because nobody went to see it.

Now, we're stuck with The Happening = I stole this from a classic novel called Day of the Triffids by John Wyndham.


I am not a good filmmaker. I got lucky because I suck cock like Eli Roth.
