M. Night Shyamalan, a director famous for storytelling twists, shares his thoughts on what it really means to compose a great ending to a movie: 'When you stick the landing you're giving them the keys to how to interpret everything that you watched...'
M. Night Shyamalan opens up about his philosophy on what goes into making a great ending to a movie. The horror director, whose filmography includes both modern classics like The Sixth Sense and Signs, and critically-panned features such as The Happening and The Last Airbender, is both famous and infamous for his major plot twists. His next movie, Knock at the Cabin, is set to release in February 2023 and stars Dave Bautista, Jonathan Groff, and Rupert Grint.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Speaking with Jake Hamilton, Shyamalan speaks candidly on the fundamentals of a good ending to any cinematic story while promoting his Apple TV+ original series Servant ahead of season 4. Knock at the Cabin will be Shyamalan's fifteenth feature film, and given that his last movie continued his trademark tendency for eleventh-hour twists, viewers are already speculating as to how he might end things this time.
"What you're left with at the end of the movie should tell you what you saw...When you stick the landing you're giving them the keys to how to interpret everything that you watched, and I'm not just talking about plot. I'm talking about tone and the approach...When it's blurry, or you pick only one aspect of it, it throws you off because it's not speaking to the whole piece, the whole story."M.
To audiences, the very expectation of a forthcoming twist is effectively part of the experience of a Shyamalan movie itself. This is comparable to how MCU fans reliably sit through the end credits of every Marvel movie with the expectation that a post-credit scene will tease future projects, cameos, or narrative threads.
With Knock at the Cabin telling the story of a family taken hostage and forced to choose a human sacrifice to avert a coming apocalypse, audiences can expect a classic horror movie setup to receive a classic Shyamalan treatment. The film is also an adaptation of The Cabin at the End of the World by Paul G. Tremblay, which ends on an ambiguous note about whether the apocalypse is really pending.
