"Barratt makes excellent use of graphics to help illustrate the strategies employed by Shyamalan to prevent the first-time viewer anticipating the aforementioned twist . . . ultimately though, Buckland's collection does provide a thought-provoking study of what has become an important genre in contemporary cinema." (Scope Book Reviews, 1 February 2011)

"A timely and insightful guide to some of the more complex and labyrinthine currents in recent cinema, drawing on an admirable range of examples from around the globe. Geoff King, Professor of Film and TV Studies, Brunel University
