This takes the "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes" concept to a whole new level. DOWN to a whole new level, that is. Who said the age of turkeys was over? I wish I could give this rubbish a negative amount of stars.

The happening is a great movie. It's about something that effects humans in a way that makes them start killing themselves. First, people become confused. Then they kill themselves. It is revealed after some suicides that plants have released some sort of toxin into the air that reverses the survival instinct in humans, and therefore they want to kill themselves. The plants do this because of the bad effects people are having on the environment. The suicide parts are scary. Examples are a woman sitting on a bench next to another woman in New York City. This is the first suicide. The woman who kills herself tells the other woman she doesn't know where she is or something. The woman sitting next to her thinks she's joking and says something in response. The other woman then pulls something out of her hair and stabs herself in the neck with it. Other suicides include a man getting into a lion's pen at a zoo and a lion bites or tears his arms off. The movie is very scary and creepy and the plant's toxin thing is a very interesting idea. It's not as good as the sixth sense. It's way better than signs and way way better than lady in the water. Lady in the water is awful and signs is fairly bad. M. Night Shyamalan really came back good with this one.

Quite possibly the worst movie ever made. If I were a judge, instead of sending people to jail I'd make them watch this movie. I'd only make them way h it once though. Once is plenty. What starts out as impossibly horrible dissolves into, get this, something even MORE horrible. Sort your sock drawer, get a bad sunburn, clean up after the dog.....do anything but watch this....thing. You'll thank me later.

Warning! Warning! Film turd ahead! Wow, you just can't imagine anything this bad coming from the guy who directed "The Sixth Sense". IMDb only allows 1000 words for a review. I'm going to try to keep this under 50. You have to start with the moronic script; and then end there. I haven't heard dialogue this cringe worthy since, well, ever in my life. Betty Buckley as Mrs. Jones... smashing her bloody face through a window, twice... no words. The only thing that kept me watching this giant pant load was the fast forward button and enough curiosity about whether or not it could continue to worsen. It did.
