A real disappointment. <em>'The Watchers'</em> holds some promise with its premise, though unfortunately it never really clicks into gear - in my opinion, at least.

Has some interesting elements here and there but despite some decent direction by Ishana Night Shyamalan (daughter of M. Night) and a solid enough performance by Elle Fanning, it doesn't quite come together and not a whole lot that I found thrilling or scary. The final 20-minutes or so also didn't work very well either. As a whole it's a run-of-the-mill supernatural horror film that if not for the director this would…
