They get in, take their seats, the concert starts, and everything is going great.
Dad tells his daughter to stay at the seat because hes going to the bathroom.
On his way to the bathroom, Dad notices some strange things going on.
There are a lot of police at this concert.
Cameras are being set up.
Something is very weird about all this.
He goes to a merch booth and asks one of the workers whats going on.
The worker tells Dad that hes not supposed to spill the beans, but he will.
In fact, everything about the concertincluding it actually happeningis just a trap to catch The Butcher.
Theyve got all the exits closed, no one is able to leave, theyre going to get him.
Dad looks surprised at this revelation.
It turns out, Dad, a.k.a.
Josh Hartnett, is The Butcher.
But either way, its a very solid Shyamalan twist.
The main character is the killer the film is trying to catch.
Do we cheer for him?
Do we hate him?
