WILLISTOWN, Penn. — In perhaps the most daring plot twist of his career, film director M. Night Shyamalan has revealed that the entire trillion dollar F-35 program is a horror movie he has been working on for the past decade, sources confirmed today.
"I really wanted to explore the depths of the military-industrial complex and the human psyche in an age of uncertainty," said Shyamalan. "That, and I was pretty damn high when I wrote it."
While critics have panned many of his recent films, most are now saying that his latest project, while "not quite as good as The Sixth Sense," might be better than sci-fi thriller Signs.
