I'm right there with you!!! Signs and The Village were really my first foray into the horror genre as a whole! I remember losing sleep over Signs and how invigorated the feeling made me. I definitely understand how disheartening it can be to see people shitting on Shyamalan movies. The recent works might not've been winners but his early work shaped me into the person I am today and was at the core of a lot of friendships I have. I'm new to Chris' channel but his love for a movie that I consider a certified classic just fills my heart so much! You are, indeed, unalone!

20 freaking years after I saw Signs and still gives me the creeps. Visiting the location must have been like a time capsule, a quite amazing experience.

Honestly I think Chris’ love for Signs has been passed on to a lot of people. It was one of the first movies I saw him talking about on this channel so many years ago, and now I’m a much bigger fan of the art form than I ever thought I would be. I think the inspiration he drew from Signs is so earnest and palpable through his videos that it even inspires other people. Watching the film brings me back to a time when I was first discovering what movies could be, and I have Chris to thank for that. So cool to see you revisit this after all that has happened recently.

Signs is literally the one movie that scarred me the most as a kid. It wasn't Jason, Freddy, Halloween, Chucky, etc. I remember I was 14, still a young kid and watching it with all my neighbor friends at their house. We were all between 12-15 year olds. The thing wih this movie is that it felt real, cause aliens could actually exist. After watching all those alien scenes on Signs, as soon as I arrived at my house late at night, I remember closing all the windows of my bedroom, afraid the tall alien would pop up at any time. And from that day on, I always slept with all my windows closed until I was like 19-20. That's how much the aliens traumatized me. Signs might not be the best horror movie ever, but it sure left a mark on me. It's still a good horror movie.

I still find that part creepy because the design holds up pretty well (until the last fight scene, obvs) and it still triggers that little kid in me hahahah. I also lived in a town outside of Phoenix that was ALL farmland at the time. Corn crop fields EVERYWHERE! After Signs came out, it was a summer game to run into the crops and whoever stayed in there the longest won. I always lost 🤣

Thanks for this Chris!! When I 1st saw signs in theaters, I was soo scared, the movie was stuck in my head for weeks. Its 1 thing to make a sci-fi alien film with humor & s'effects, but signs is a whole different type of movie that takes the fantasy out and keeps it real as possible. This is 1 of my fav movies of all time. I have to rewatch this at least every 2-3 yrs. Good wrk & vid!! 👍👍

I took my kid brother to watch Signs when it first came out, at a far away theater from our town and we had a blast. My brother would always talk about the experience we had and how it opened his eyes to film. Even after all these years, he still talks about it. Thank you for this video

I have been waiting for this! Signs is one of my all time favorite movies. An absolutely incredible theater experience. I am a huge fan and super happy to see you fulfilling your dreams. Excellent work, chris!!

Signs and Contact are forever my top movies :) thanks for all your love to film making Chris.

Been watching you for years Chris, I'm 25 now but back when I was studying film as a teenager I used to find a lot of great new movies to watch, and then write essays about, from your channel. To see you at the point you're at now in the final stretch of your movie is amazing and I know all your subscribers are super happy for you man.

I fell in love with this movie while watching this with my parents on DVD, when it had just come out. I know most people were spooked, but after seeing the alien at the party and Joaquin Phoenix freaking out, it became what was probably my first favorite horror film and I'd watch it day after day after day. I was about 3, at the time. THANK YOU FOR THE TRIP DOWN MEMORY LANE, CHRIS, I'M ROOTING FOR YOU ALL THE WAY!!! 🤟✊👊🙌💪

The very first video I ever saw of Chris' was his review for Unbreakable. Pretty much everything he said in that video made me feel like someone was voicing my literal thoughts. Since 2010, it's been my favorite film of all time and it's easily one of the most underrated movies ever made.

Ok now I want Chris to do one of these with every of his favorite movies, this was so fun and interesting to watch!

I've been watching your videos for over 10 years and I am so happy for you. I still remember when you first told us you were going to film school 🙂 Congrats on everything, you really deserve it! 💚

I love how you managed to find music that matched the films score! Great video Chris. Signs will always be one of my favorite movies. There is something about the atmosphere that M. Night Shyamalan creates in his films. This one in particular. I also enjoy The Village for that reason.

such a perfect film. i think i’ve seen it at least 15-20 times and i still notice new things about it upon each viewing

To have this much passion for a film and to be able to organize your life for a visit like this....it gives me goosebumps! Congratulations.

I grew up not too far from here (about 20 minutes away) and it looked exactly the same as this where I lived so as a kid after seeing Signs in 2002, walking around at night past cornfields and farmhouses was terrifying. Signs is such a fantastic film. Great video Chris!

thats beautiful, we need more of these movie pilgrimages! only jus occurred to me that as more and more films are being shot with VR and on volume-type systems, fewer and fewer physical locations will be used and thus immortalised in this way.

What an interesting insight into the movie. It makes sense that they would have an additional crop circle for filming. I loved Signs. It is by far one of Shayamalam's best pieces of work. Except for 6th Sense of course.

This was SUCH a great video, and a great experience to have and share with us! Really loved this!!!!!

This is great. I love this movie. I was actually 9 and my mom bought this movie. I watched it in my theater room and honestly as a kid it blew my mind. it fascinated me and ever since then I give props to M. Night Shyamalan. I rewatch this movie every couple years and its such a treat

Signs is one of my favorite films ever made. Such an under-rated movie 🎬

Now this is what I call great content! You going out in that corn field at night I know was low-key you partly facing your own fears from that scene as a kid as well,but it's so dope to see! Thanks for bringing us your perspective on this movie man!

The amount of care and passion that went into this is awesome! Thank you for sharing your love for movies 🍿

Dang Chris!!! This was so great!! I appreciate the time it took to bring this video to life. More of these set/location visits for iconic movies would be so interesting

What a great video! I found the satellite images from different years especially fascinating. But also the bookshop and of course the cornfields at night. I mean, ever since I saw the movie 20 years ago, cornfields are a little scary at night. And you not only go into a cornfield at night, it is even THE cornfield. The cornfield from Signs! If you enjoy this, I would love to see more location videos.

Such an inspiration! Your movies will inspire kids of the future just like Shyamalan did you

I was born, raised and currently living not far from that location, and like you Chris, a Shyamalan movie awakened a deep passion for movies too (Unbreakable for me). Great video and I can’t wait to Shelby Oaks.

Wow, great video. I LOVE "Signs". It gets a bad rep for its ending, but what a great movie it is. I leave to the great Roger Ebert to say it all: "M. Night Shyamalan's "Signs" is the work of a born filmmaker, able to summon apprehension out of thin air. When it is over, we think not how little has been decided, but how much has been experienced. Here is a movie in which the plot is the rhythm section, not the melody. A movie that stays free of labored explanations and a forced climax, and is about fear in the wind, in the trees, in a dog's bark, in a little girl's reluctance to drink the water. In signs."

That deer doing a 1:1 recreation of that scene with the flashlight was unreal. One in a million.

This was soooo good. I have a soft spot for Signs. It's a movie that defies conventions. It goes backwards. The movies horizen-metaphorically of course-gets smaller and smaller. While the convention is that things get bigger. And I love a director that keeps his camera bloody still. More mini documentaries like this would be a welcome treasure.
