See this content in the original post

This week we dive into M. Night Shyamalan's 2002 film "Signs," starring Mel Gibson and Joaquin Phoenix. While "Signs" is marketed as a horror movie, it's actually a strange blend of horror, drama, and comedy. Pennsylvania farmers begin to notice peculiar crop circles appearing in their cornfields. As they try to uncover the mystery behind the crop circles, they also grapple with their own personal demons and confront the possibility of an extraterrestrial invasion. The horror and drama are often undercut by moments of humor and a truly bizarre performance from Gibson. Take a listen and discover the strange world of Signs along with us.
