Night Shyamalan, the writer/director of 'The Sixth Sense' and 'Unbreakable' comes the story of the Hess family in Bucks County, Pennsylvania who wake up one morning to find a 500 foot crop circle in their backyard. Graham Hess (Mel Gibson) and his family are told extra-terrestrials are responsible for the sign in their field.
