Film critic Jonathan Sim's review of The Watchers, a new horror movie directed by Ishana Night Shayamlan and produced by M. Night Shyamalan.

Ishana Night Shyamalan has a bright future ahead of her. The recent NYU graduate has had a strong start in the film industry. Her father,Shyamalan does a solid job crafting an eerie gothic atmosphere in The Watchers, differentiating her work from her father’s and quashing “nepo baby” claims. The premise surrounds Mina , a young artist who gets stranded in the woods and trapped with three strangers who are watched by mysterious creatures at night. The film is based on a novel by A. M.

The first half of The Watchers works quite well. This film thrives on the mystery of what’s happening. There are a few camera placements from Shyamalan and cinematographer Eli Arenson that sometimes allow us to feel like voyeurs. There’s a chilling opening horror scene, and the film does a strong job of crafting a haunting nature that permeates the frame, allowing fear to settle into its viewers.
