Wow! Talk about an unexpected point of view of folklore and mythology! As one who took these courses as electives, I must say I was hooked the moment I found out the mythology connection and how it subtly carried through the film. What a great way to start my birthday month! 10s across the board! Outstanding debut! Congratulations to the director, cast and production.

I was trying so hard to stay awake.

There are plenty of things that go bump in the night. “The Watchers” proves they’re only effective if you don’t sleep through them.

Ironically for something titled The Watchers, this production lacks the basic quality of watchability.

Even with its drawbacks, I found “The Watchers” worth watching, even with its odd (and perhaps too faithful to the book) final 15 minutes. The director works well with cinematographer Eli Arenson to envelop the chamber-sized ensemble in various shades of dread, or comfort.
