M. Night Shymalan is back with a new supernatural horror film. Old is out in theaters this weekend and as the title suggests, it revolves around a mysterious location that causes people to age rapidly. A family thinks that they’re soaking up the sun in a secluded, tropical beach spot, only to discover that they’re all aging so fast that their lifespan is being reduced to a mere day.
