"Shyamalan’s classic sci-fi drama Signs is both a thrilling celebration of the genre and a poignant exploration of the purpose behind life’s random tragedies."

The scares are expertly handled; there’s an undeniable cleverness to the idea that a potential alien invasion could re-instill religious ardor just as it terrorizes an unprepared community.

Signs is a quiet contemplation on grief and faith that uses aliens as a means to an end. It’s the horror serving the drama and never the other way around.

Manages to capture the inherent unease of an alien invasion in frightening ways, while also injecting plenty of heart into the story.

Signs knows what it's like to witness the end of the world on television and the twisted catharsis that comes with the world not actually ending.
