PMP#181: M. Night Shyamalan’s Films Are a Trap

from Pretty Much Pop: A Culture Podcast

In light of the new film Trap, we look at this writer/director's oeuvre. Was he a bright light (The Sixth Sense) that at one point went out (certainly by The Happening), and has that light gone back on as he's regained full control in his most recent films (Knock at the Cabin, The Visit, et al.)? Is he a genius, overrated, or somehow both?  Mark, Lawrence, Sarahlyn and Al disagree both about Trap and about the overall Shyamalan experience.  For more, visit prettymuchpop.com.
