The crop circle on Graham Hess's Pennsylvania farm is one of many signs associated with a worldwide extraterrestrial incursion. The film keeps the creatures mostly obscured at first, using the cornfield and a baby-monitor signal to build suspense.
Why are glasses of water important at the end of Signs?
Graham's daughter Bo leaves half-finished glasses throughout the house, and the family later discovers that water harms the invading creatures. Merrill uses one of Graham's displayed baseball bats to strike the glasses and splash the alien threatening Morgan.
Who plays the Hess family in Signs?
Mel Gibson plays former Episcopal priest Graham Hess, while Joaquin Phoenix plays his brother Merrill. Rory Culkin and Abigail Breslin portray Graham's children, Morgan and Bo.
Is Signs mainly an alien-invasion movie or a religious drama?
It uses an alien invasion as the external threat, but Graham's crisis of faith after his wife's death is the central emotional story. Director M. Night Shyamalan released the film in 2002, following The Sixth Sense and Unbreakable.
