...tall trees sway in the breeze, and was instantly gripped by dread. For this, like much else, I blame M. Night Shyamalan. Those who've seen his most recent film, The Happening, know why. The eco-pocalypse is coming and it's all the fault of the trees, which kill everything in sight (including, apparently, Shyamalan's film career).
