Hollywood filmmaker M.
Night Shyamalan is promising that his new movie, "The Happening" starring Mark Wahlberg,
will terrify theatergoers.
The Indian-born
director told reporters in Mumbai on Monday that "it is an extremely scary
movie." He said it's "meant to scare you."
Shyamalan lives near Malvern, Pa., and shoots
his movies in and around Philadelphia.
He is visiting India
to receive one of the country's highest civilian awards for his contribution to
cinema.
His new movie will be
released worldwide on June 13. In it, Wahlberg plays a school teacher on the
run from a natural disaster that threatens the entire world.
Shyamalan says, "The
emotional center of the movie is if you knew you were going to die ... what
would be the last thing you would say to your loved one?"
