Whether it was intentional or not, there’s a really interesting metaphor for the 24/7 news cycle, the need to blame something, and the state of the world. There’s so much in there to think about but most of the audience just thought “plants make people kill themselves? That’s too silly”. In my mind it isn’t the plants; no one knows, but the need to get the first headline, or feel in control is so great that people get frantic, panicky, and dangerous.
I liked The Happening.

That movie would have been better without that dick Marky mark in it
Say hi to your mother
What’d I miss? What did Mr. Marky do, sir?
