Original Review by Jonathan Broxton

The Watchers is a new supernatural horror film, and is the directorial debut of Ishana Night Shyamalan, the 25-year-old daughter of filmmaker M. Night Shyamalan. She previously directed and wrote several episodes of the horror TV series Servant, for which her father was the showrunner, and also directed the second unit on her father’s films Old and Knock at the Cabin, but this marks the first feature film project of her own. The film is based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A. M. Shine and stars Dakota Fanning as Mina, an American artist living in Ireland, who gets stranded in an expansive, untouched forest when her car breaks down.
