    On this episode of Remainders we watch the 2002 thriller Signs. Peak M. Night Shyamalan, Signs is a perfect distillation of the director’s best work – masterfully crafted horror tension and emotional resonance. Mel Gibson and Joaquin Phoenix play brothers in rural Pennsylvania when crop circle signs begin to appear on their farm. A man who has recently lost his faith, Gibson is forced to confront his internal struggle and the possibility of extraterrestrial life. Where does Signs fit in M. Night’s filmography? What are the prevailing theories about the aliens in Signs? And what exactly does Lionel Prichard and The Wolfington Brothers have to do with all this?

    Other topics include Darren’s art shows in L.A. and Chicago, new work with Cypress Hill, best performances by Joaquin Phoenix, Psycho and Exorcist legacy sequels, David Gordon Green and directors working in multiple genres, The Creature From the Black Lagoon in 3D, and Michael Caine’s paycheck for a summer home.
