...mostly hokum, but I KNEW it was hokum and that's what I enjoyed about it. (And the director knew we knew, y'know?) No blood, gore, and very few special effects, but Signs made me jump in my seat, more than once, even when I KNEW it was coming.Signs isn't great cinema, but it was fun. I also admire the director for using the power of suggestion so effectively - it's what you don't see that's the scariest. If only more filmmakers would take this to heart.
