They were all swaying exactly like in the movie and it shit me right up. Bit pathetic really, but I guess it effected me on some level.

This was a God-awful mess of a film. It has some fantastic visuals and the occasional moving moment (John Leguizamo is the only person I remotely cared about), but it was simply just a meandering trudge through some fields with no sense of threat. And the ending? Christ on a bike, I thought Shyamalan couldn't make something more trite than Lady in the Water. I was wrong. No one should watch this film. It is simply a bag of cack.
