Do you see dead people? Have you been adversely affected by botanical toxins? Is your home town secretly a 19th century throwback protected from the clutches of the outside modern world by fearmongering elders?
Third act plot twist proponent M Night Shyamalan is gearing up to unleash 90 new minutes of confusion leading up to an “Ohhhh right” moment, in the form of his new film The Visit.
The film centres around the mysterious rules imposed on a pair of siblings (played by ‘Strayan rising stars Ed Oxenbould and Olivia De Jonge) during their visit to their Grandparents house on a remote Pennsylvanian farm. The film, written and directed by Shymulan, also stars Kathryn Hahn, Peter McRobbie, and Deanna Dunagan.
Gearing up for the film’s release, Shyamalanaman is heading our way for a series of special launch screenings of the film, which will also feature Oxenbould and De Jonge.
The director and the two actors will be appearing at the special screenings in Melbourne from August 24th till the 26th, and again in Sydney on August 26th and 27th.
Further details of the appearances by ShiaLeBoumalan and co are yet to be announced by Universal Pictures.
Swing away, Merrill.
