- The Village Commentary Highlights with Eric Striffler: • IS THE VILLAGE M. NIGH...
Chris Stuckmann talks about The Buried Secret of M. Night Shyamalan, the hilarious mockumentary that was marketed as a real-life expose of the filmmaker. It aired on the SyFy channel in July 2004, and afterwards, SyFy admitted the whole thing was a big hoax to promote The Village. Let’s have some fun talking about this insane piece of moviemaking.
Chris is a level 5 fan. He’s even trying to cover up Shyamalans secret
Hahahhaah! Good one!
You almost have the same profile name as me, so I got confused and tried to remember if I ever commented on this video lol
More true than u noooo. . .
lol
"If he leaves the Philadelphia area, his movies will suck". Welp! This might be a REAL documentary🤣
Considering After Earth and The Last Air Bender there might be some truth to that.
The Happening also shot scenes out of Philadelphia.
Doesn't "The Happening" start in Philadelphia?
His new movie is not only being shot outside of Philly, but outside of the United States period 😂😂😂
When Dee Reynolds was an “featured actress” his career was over
Every time I hear the words M. Night Shamylan, my brain splits in half and declares war on each other.
nice joke
Not my brain. It's made of unbreakable glass.
@@7_Cell nice
That might be a sign for you to seek help.
It’s true. Although The Sixth Sense is fantastic & Im definitely a defender of Signs, Unbreakable is I think just such powerful & unique film-making. Might be in my top 10, definitely top 30. Then you have Lady in the Water, After Earth, & a handful of others that are absolute poison. Bizarre.
It’s the equivalent of a famous documentarian following Christopher Nolan on the set of Tenet, hypothesizing that the man has actually discovered time travel.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
If he had made Tenet around that time, it probably would have happened 😂😂
I thinks it's similar to Stanley Kubrick and the Man on the Moon launch conspiracy
Ok let's be real, he has. The deep state just refuses to tell you.
Except Chris Nolan is actually a real time traveler
That scene with the teenagers outside was so funny
"Everyone knows..."
"don't do it... no"
He's connected lol
"The broken are the more evolved"
I couldn’t get over the stupid hoods.
"Everyone knows... he actually sucks."
M Night Shyamalan's secret is that he's in a "Yesterday" situation where no one remembers his favorite director existing, so he copied that guy's movies, got famous, and started making his own original work. That's the only explanation for the drop in quality
That makes so much sense. That is honestly the answer right here. Head Cannon established. Also I really need to watch Yesterday now
Can you expound? What is the Yesterday reference?
@@funkrobot9762 its a movie where a struggling musician wakes up in an alternate world where "The Beatles" never existed and proceeds to re-create their various hits from memory leading to resounding success. It's funny and a bit charming.
I think m night is one of the most creative people in the film industry, and sometimes the ideas get out of control and turn from being interesting and unique to becoming stupid and bad. I bet the guy will come out with a great movie sometime in the future we just have to wait.
There's a book called the man who heard voices and it's about m night trying to get lady in the water made. It's fascinating. He had a huge falling out with Disney and left to go to Warner Bros and pretty much everyone that had his back and he worked with prior to Lady had abandoned him. He lost confidence, I believe. Disney didn't believe in lady and really didn't wanna make it, but gave him the green light. M night decided not to make it because he didn't feel they wanted to do it. So he went to wb.
I love Chris' reviews but I like when he talks about things he's interested in but are a little off the cuff
Please edit

Do you even know what off the cuff means?
Your channel is dead, you won’t revive it by commenting shit
Here’s a missed opportunity: those boys should’ve called themselves “the night club”
Night Watchers 😏😉
Knights of the Night
The Nights of the Roundtable
Or nightcrawlers
The buried secret is that he has the ability to make excellent movies but chooses not to 🤯
I wonder if he could've made a halfway decent Last Airbender if he'd just let someone else (like the cartoon's actual writers!) do the script. He can be a very gifted director, if he'd only acknowledge his limitations as a writer...
Lol.... I still can't forgive him for TLAB
*What a twist*
@@OldSchoolGenius The film
score is way too good for that dumpster fire.
That places him right there with the other “dice roll” directors where you can’t tell if you’ll get a masterpiece or something to make fun of. These guys appear to have exhausted the best of their creative abilities in the prime of their career. They also made movies what went on to not only define but create its own style and genre of film....but in this same filmography they have movies that are possibly some of the worst movies in said genre or ever made.These include
Ridley Scott(Alien, Bladerunner😀/Alien Covenant😬)
John McTiernan(Diehard, Predator😀/Rollerball😬)
Francis Ford Coppola(Apocalypse Now, The Godfather😀/JACK😬)
Zack Snyder(300, Watchmen😀/Suckerpunch😬)
The Wachowski’s(Bound/The Matrix😀/Jupiter Ascending😬)
My undying love and respect(or bias🤷🏿♂️) for John Carpenter prevent me from placing him on this list as well. My hand literally refused to let me type the final letters in his name.
This seems like a classic Joaquin Phoenix idea.
When I was younger my dad told me that “This is Spinal Tap” was a real story about a band and it made me terrified of spontaneously combusted
Turned me off being a drummer 🗿
@@YourMoveTCG stone
You're still going to combust spontaneously.
In original reviews for that film, members of the press completely believed it was real!
Apparently Liam Gallagher also thought they were a real band until he went to a Spinal Tap concert.
I just love the fact that someone went like ‘Yeah, let’s put Johnny Depp in this thing for no goddamn reason.’
Johnny Depp was originally cast in Signs, so Depp was relaying his experience.
Johnny Depp was in talks for the role but it went to Joaquin Phoenix instead but hey, considering how Depp is an awesome person, he does like to do weird stuff like this
As someone who works on set... The whole “no eye contact while directing” and “don’t get in the actors eye line” is not unheard of at all haha.
Yeah ask bale
Is that serious ? Wtf
@@Ambir91 Is what serious?
but why??? why are they bothered by eye contact?? yes i even heard fans complaining getting shouted by celebs for looking at them in the eye.
@@sakasusuk When getting distracted can waste tens of thousands of dollars or much more then it's best not to get distracted.
I can't tell if Chris loves or hates this movie
I don’t think he hates it but he clearly doesn’t like it as much as he used to.
Neither can he 😭💜
i think heis just embarassed he was punk'd and has a love hate relationship with it

Nah, that joke would be too niche specific and not meta enough. I give extra points for creativity though......
It makes total sense.. He made "Lady in the water", "The happening" and "The Last Airbender" faaaaaaaar away from Philadelphia.
New York is close to Philadelphia. Did not matter when nature's fight to save itself started. It matters that humans were messing up and to be careful. Never mess with Mother Nature. :) I loved Lady in the Water, The Village, The Happening...BUT ...The Last Airbender *cough. Nobody is perfect. It's ok.
There is no TLA movie in Ba Sing Se
@@samuraibobafett1118 the Dai Li make sure of that
@@samuraibobafett1118 I like this comment
Lady in the Water was shot in Levittown, PA, which is in the Philadelphia metro area.
The apartment complex's design is common in places like California, but M. Night famously insisted on shooting there.
The poor preformance of this movie is probably why he lost the ability to dictate the filming location when more sensible options were available.
"Life would be boring without secrets, don't you think?"
Adrien Brody & Johnny Depp
... 🤷
Depp’s secret is “why did he hook up with Amber Turd?”, but Adrian Brody?
He's the most inconsistent director that I'm still excited for.
He’s made one average movie in his career
@@chucho35pewdsmiester78 sure 1 average movie and a couple good ones and some horrendous trash.

This is actually a hilarious idea for a film. Take a pretty goofy and well-known director like M Night Shyamalam, and make a mockunentary where it turns out they're actually this force of evil or terrifying creature. Obviously needs to be a dark comedy, but it could work so well
I’ll never forget sitting in the theater as the credits rolled in “The Village” and thinking. “That would’ve made a great book.” Page turning suspense and a twist with an impact that did not resonate on screen as I’m sure it would on paper. Prob my fav of his films. You can see the brilliance. So close.
There's actually a young adult book that has a close enough plot (no monsters, I believe, other than a lack of modern health care) from the 90s called Running Out of Time. But in the book the twist is revealed VERY early on and then the bulk of the book is a combination of ticking clock suspense and fish-out-of-water experiences as the main character comes to terms with what it means about everything they believed about their life.
Nah comic books are where its at.
@@kmlamb85 adding that book to my list
Really liking the direction of Chris' channel this year so far, he's getting more personal and creative and having a bit of fun!

It makes me happy to see how much you’ve grown man... I’ve been watching for years, since i was a high schooler I’d stay up late watching your reviews and some, notably your Home Alone review, have gotten me through pretty tough times. It’s a great feeling to see a movie you love so much be praised for the same reasons by someone you look up to. Seeing you grow from doing Worst of the Year videos to stepping down from that due to your growing respect for the art of film, is just inspiring. I feel like we’ve both grown as people and even though you may never meet me, I just wanted to say human to human, thank you Chris for always being true, respectful, and most importantly, a genuine soul. Peace to you my friend and may all beings be happy. ❤️
Dear Slim...
Basically, Chris wants some to make a cut of this and he's telling you what he likes and what to cut...😉
You know he had to cut this video xD ?
Johny Depp trying not to laugh is the best thing I have ever seen xD
I watched this with my parents and anytime I brought it up they had no idea what I was talking about so I thought I just had a really weird dream when I was 12.
Johnny Depp: Get a doughnut
Everybody: Okay😍
What a legend
Interesting. I didn't know this existed. The Village wasn't my favorite of his films, but I grew to like it. Signs is my favorite. I have a really boring story about Shyamalan. I was on a flight with him and his family. Two of his daughters were sitting next to me. The book his eldest daughter was reading caught my eye because it had pictures of Johnny Depp dressed as Edward Scissorhands. Anyway, I looked across the aisle and saw that Shyamalan was sitting there with his wife and youngest child. That's it. That's the whole story. I know. It's boring. Equally boring: I ran into Adrian Brody at a Bass Pro Shop in Las Vegas. I know... it's all mundane.
What did you buy at Bass Pro Shop in Las Vegas? That’s the most interesting part of this story to me...that Vegas has a Bass Pro Shop
@@DragonsFrogs lol, I didn't end up buying anything. I went to buy a pair of shoes, but they were sold out of the ones I wanted. Hiking and fishing are actually quite popular there. :)
Good seeing Chris this relaxed after his last video
Hey Chris, it's not a new movie, but the korean horror film "The Wailing" blew me away, and I'd love to hear your take on it.
I’ve wanted him to review this for so long omg
That movie absolutely floored me! One of those movies that just completely shocked me
I’m surprised he never reviewed it
This was SUCH a unique film. I really loved the experience, I haven’t seen anything like it before or since
M Night: “But these sound systems go to 11.”
Nice mate 😂😂😂
"A potential genius idea that just wasn't explored to it's fullest extent"... every Shyamalan movie ever.
Can’t wait for M Night’s new film “Old”
me too even though i don't know anything about it

Why? When was the last time he made a good movie? How long ago was that?
@@HelpMeFindTheseSongs The Visit, Split and Glass were good films imo...not bad whatsoever..

This is so weird Chris, I was literally reading about this last night on Wikipedia not knowing you were dropping this today😂😂😂😂
I was going to post the exact same comment... maybe some of us are...connected
Now THIS is the documentary.
Seeing Secret Window Johnny Depp from the early 2000s just made me happy 🥰
Just from the premise this is a response from that fake documentary about the myth of the Blair Witch to promote the Blair Witch Project....And btw, by watching Depp here I realised the Secret Window is a very very very Shyamalan-ish movie. Maybe he could adapt some of King's material sometime
Johnny Depp is wearing a costume from Secret Window while he's in this...lmao
I think he just showed up on set for SW and was just donning dem threadz
That’s the way he dresses. It’s not a costume.
I actually love when Chris talks about strange movies and projects that I never heard about. It`s interesting
I felt like this video was starting to lean towards a "Hilariocity" review.
It seems weird that Chris acknowledges that this is a mockumentary, but continues to get angry about the parts that are clearly the mockumentary parts. It's like he's contradicting himself, making it look like he's mocking the mockumentary. I think Chris just went full meta on us and nobody noticed.
Mock docs have to be self aware not obviously hitting my over the head with stupid shit.
Yea, that was a weird review.
Also, what's with the "inflUence", isn't it supposed to be "Influence" with a stressed I ?
I think the problem is that it takes itself too seriously.
It's that is so, so self indulgent, so hokey, and is clearly fella†ing itself.
M. Night Shamalamadingdong!
The secret of M. Night felt like the movie called The Visit.
Makes sense 👍
I really like M Night Shymalan but “The Happening” is unintentionally ridiculous/hilarious
My favorite scene is when Wahlberg threatens to feed a tree a knuckle sandwich
The Visit is pure garbage. One of the worst films I’ve ever seen.
"please don't get into any of the performer's eye-lines, cuz that would be a disaster" 🤣
OHHHH! GOOO FOR YOU!!
Only if it’s Christian Bale.
@@c28baby Or any actor who really gets into the zone. I worked on a set as a background extra for a movie with Denzel Washington. The AD gave us that exact instruction, don’t get in Denzel’s eye lines.
That part isn’t even really a joke. There ARE a lot of actors who actually demand that on film sets. Not even just during takes... the entire time the actor is on set, you’re not allowed to look them in the eyes.
It’s one of the most fucked up, yet strangely understandable things about the movie industry. Some actors are just that sensitive about their process and don’t want to be taken out of character by having to acknowledge that there’s a bunch of human beings around them that wouldn’t be there in the story, so they don’t want to have someone look them in the eyes and connect with their humanity in a way that’s hard to ignore. It’s easier to pretend nobody is there if you never actually “see” them.
Of course, the other way to look at it is that a lot of Hollywood stars are pampered, elitist, entitled brats who get a sense of satisfaction from feeling “above” the plebs working on set and would never condescend to recognize their humanity by giving them the privilege of looking a God among insects in the eye. 🤷♂️
Maybe somewhere in between.
Lmaaaooooo
''My goal in this channel is to respect filmakers'' and this is why Chris is a hundred levels above every other youtube movie reviewer who just likes bashing the movie of the week for likes.
He’s very underrated in a way many don’t understand I think
They know him. They're still mad after the last Airbender movie.
@@sweetbabyrodney I think even with The Village and some other stinkers M. Night would still be respected if he never did the last airbender. Omit that from his filmography and on average he's a very good director
Directing maybe, but he writes some really dumb shit.
I think he's great (most of the time)
He fucking sucks. That's why he's underrated. He had his moment of "glory", 20 years ago, but that time is long gone.
I actually think the village is a masterpiece.
Same. Also lady in the water but people hate that one.
I also agree, but I can't stand to watch it now because I have a mentally disabled son. It threw the whole story into a totally different light for me.
Lady in the Water is beautifully written and acted. I think it fell short because He was trying to say more than the movie could really carry. It was no where near as bad a film as the critics tried to say it was. It has become my 9 year old daughter's favorite movie.
When Shyamalan makes a movie, the Gods flip a coin.
*Game of Thrones reference
I mean, his movies come out trash Either way, but they still flip a coin. gotta pass time somehow
Johnny Depp was talking about "having secrets" here because in 2004 he was in the movie "Secret Window"...
Unfortunately the first M Night movie I ever watched was The Last Airbender..
For me it was Signs but I was very little and was scary for me
Ooof
@@viciousbane569 for me it was Signs too.
Mine was The Happening
@@jimbobaggins27 sad thing is I was too young to know how terrible it was when I saw it, I came out like “well i mean it wasn’t good but it wasn’t bad either”
(For reference I believe that same year transformers revenge of the fallen came out and I thought that movie was the coolest shit ever) before my brain kicked in and I realized how shitty it was 🤦🏼♂️
Okay, the scene where the kids are chilling near the gates of his house was hilarious. I didn't know M. Night had a knack for comedy
The buried secret is the friends we made along the way
Your timing is incredible for me again because I just watched Signs again last week, and I'm about to sit down to Unbreakable, Split, and Glass this weekend.
White kids in hoodies.😐 Oh no no now that's scary
Hi Chris. I worked on Glass for M. Night. I was just a stand-in but after I watched your vid I thought you might like to know M Night was always very kind to me and several times took cast and crew out for dinner and drinks. He was so cool and personable. All crew and cast knew 100 percent he was in charge and you do what he says, however, he never abused that always a very cool guy.
I now know where Shane Dawson got his inspiration to make his documentaries.
But have you ever seen the Estonian film Klasse?
Are u implying 'he's... _connected'?_
Shane left the chat because he's an empath with no balls.
Regarding Bruce Willis not being in signs, if I was the guy being interviewed I would have said "Who do you think plays the alien?" Then raised my eyebrows like I'd revealed something important.
I’d like to see a film of someone who made a film that was such a huge success but the director is unable to live up to the standards he set with his first film and we see his struggle to find joy with his art and even himself.
Just an idea
You're basically describing Birdman except instead of a director, it's an actor.
that sounds like birdman lol
Just watch the Behind the Scenes footage of The Phantom Menace. It's pretty damn interesting and covers all the aspects u were talking about.

Chris, I would love to see you interview MNS in a series of half hour episodes. After all the shit he has to face it would be nice to see a real fan asks all the questions we all want to know.
Hilarious. I remember watching this and 10 mins in thinking, "Bull$hit!" Great to revisit this though. M has turned out a few really bad films and some of my all time favorites as well, but what I really love about him is that he isn't afraid to take chances. Sometimes that doesn't work out well, but such is life.
I remember seeing an ad for this DVD in my copy of The Village and never thought anything about it.
Stumbled on this doco on TV in 2004.. had zero context and was completely sucked in. I remember being super freaked. They got me good. 😅
I went to a set of Walker TX. Ranger.. I literally had a PA come over and instruct me "do not approach chuck unless he decides to come to you and don't talk to the crew".. well I DID and think I was walking up to chuck at the snacks table and it ended up being Terry Norris! Such a nice guy! Never got to meet chuck but did get to see him shoot scenes and got do awesome stunts!!!
Bruh even his documentary had a twist
Damn, I'd love to see a Spielberg mockumentary where he's secretly capturing dinosaurs with a time machine, that would legitimately be great if done well.
Imagine going out and a group weird teens with hoodies are waiting for ya
I watched this when it originally aired, right before I was going to see The Village. I thought it was so stupid I went to see Harold and Kumar instead. I haven't watched an M. Night movie since. Whenever I hear his name, this is the first thing that pops into my head. It ruined his movies for me.
I've only really loved 2 of this man's films, but one of those films just happens to be my favorite of all time: Unbreakable
I’m ironically glad to see YOU going back to making more personal projects after last year. Still always love this channel but you feel more alive recently.
If Crows hang around Shymalan, it's cos he's nice to them. Crows can communicate about friendly people to one another.
I love M night Shyamalan’s directing style seriously I think he is a really great interesting intriguing Director and the way he tells stories is very unique to him
Fuck it. I actually liked The Village and The Happening. Come at me, Internet.
The Village for the most part was good and The Happening is a Hilarousity.
I watch the happening every now and then. Kinda like guilty pleasure of mine lol. But man, the acting of mark wahlberg and zooey is just so comical made it into a comedy also the army dude and hippie guy.
Omg! I saw this back when it first aired and I ate it up hahaha. Of course back then I was a very gullible and easily creeped out 14 year old who really loved Shyamalan. That ghost boy scared the crap out of me! Watching you review it now and seeing these clips I cannot stop laughing at how absurd it all was haha! Thanks for bringing back this memory!
P.S. back in the day I also would have easily gotten all of those Shyamalan fan questions right lol!
I have to disagree about the "mockumentaries wouldn't work today" - aspect. Martin Scorsese's Rolling Thunder Revue had me believing the entire time that it was real.
This is one of the biggest vanity projects I've ever seen.
I mean... Chappie is a really big budget Die Antward vanity project in a lot of ways.
Ah, yes...the magical Cosmo quiz that grants you access to darkweb secrets.
Holy crap, I watched this back in the day - I’d totally forgotten about it! :) Thanks for the trip down weird memory lane. Hah! Love your videos & reviews, man.
I remember when this aired on scifi channel and never got aired again lol, at the time i remember thinking what a load of bullshit, but its become like a weird guilty pleasure of mine to watch it since it aired. ive even rented it before lol. It does legitimately come off creepy though, I like the music that they used.
I love, love, LOVE the "documentary" about the original Blair Witch Project - also, a Very guilty pleasure!!😜🖤
@@kristennelson3190 lol i remember the blair witch website haha
@@kristennelson3190 I was going to say- I loved the mockumentary for Sci-Fi about the Blair Witch Project more than the actual Blair Witch Project at the time and it was why I watched this one when it aired- hoping it'd be as enjoyable.

It's impossible to find these days.
@@JaycRam wow thats dope. I think most of the music they used in it was from m knights other movies. Although i could be wrong.

Check out mockumentary "Incident at Loch Ness" featuring Werner Herzog directed by Zach Penn! It's not loaded with padding and the commentary is also staged and as hilarious as the film
I was trolled. Long ago I only saw that Johnny Depp interview and thought it was real
Great underrated film!
Ps: JUSTICE FOR JOHNNY!
“ What a twist!”
I think this would’ve been better if the director wasn’t an established, Oscar-nominated filmmaker. I think it would’ve been better if it was payed actors playing really stupid filmmakers. That way, the whole “treating normal things like they were this big mystery” would’ve worked better and would’ve been WAY funnier.
