A puzzling and deadly phenomenon has gripped urban areas of the United States, causing victims to become disoriented, freeze in mid motion, and then take their own lives. When Philadelphia Science Teacher Elliot Moore (Wahlberg) learns what's happening, he boards a westbound train, along with his wife Alma (Deschanel), colleague Julian (Leguizamo), and Julian's daughter Jess (Ashlyn Sanchez), in an attempt to evade the illness. Theories about The Happening abound, but unless the cause of the outbreak is found, it would seem that humans' reign of the planet will come to an end. (Stacey Pendry)
