The Watchers is now playing in theaters, and the new film was written and directed by Ishana Night Shyamalan, the daughter of M. Night Shyamalan. ComicBook recently had the chance to chat with Shyamalan about her feature directorial debut, and she spoke about her love for horror and filming the project in Ireland. We also asked Shyamalan about the sound design and how she pulled ideas from the book in addition to filming the fake reality show that is seen throughout the movie.
"I think sound design – I had a wonderful, wonderful sound designer, Sylvain Bellemare. He's just like uber talented and cool. But yeah, for me, sound was always a big, big part of how I felt this world was going to come together. So I wrote a lot of it into the script. You're hearing this thing, feeling this thing. So it was very much a third element of the storytelling that I think I felt how much potential it could do for this genre in this particular world.
"We shot them," Shyamalan said of the fake reality show."That was our first day of shoot. We got these wonderful 10 actors into a house and set up like 14 cameras, and then I wrote a couple of scenes that they could kind of improv off of, and we just shot a full day of content and it was so fun. It was so funny and fun."What Is The Watchers About?The Watchers follows an artist named Mina"who gets stranded in an expansive, untouched forest in western Ireland.
