The Happening: rip-off of Starship Invasions


The new film called The Happening is an unofficial remake of Starship Invasions, albeit without the aliens and space battles. But the idea of people committing mass suicide is exactly the main storyline of Starship Invasions.

The exact same thing occurred to me. Maybe it is true that there are no more new ideas.

Wow, I thought the same thing - I only saw "Invasions" once when I was nine, but a lot of stuff in the "Happening" trailers sure seemed familiar.

That's M. Night Shyamalan for you. Apparently the shocking twist in SIXTH SENSE ripped off an episode of the kid's show ARE YOU AFRAID OF THE DARK.
