Not to go too off topic, but I just realized that my sci-fi novel, which has heavy involvement of savage, albeit, alien plants is no longer looking too good, due impart to people's reaction to the killer plants in this movie.
The thing is while my idea is conceptually quite different from The Happening, I am still afraid that people won't be able to take it "seriously." As some people thought the idea in The Happening was silly.
Need to know info about my concept:
Otherworldly plants have evolved rather savagely to defend themselves from the horde of ravenous and adept insects that threaten their survival. As such, the plants are highly susceptible to mutating and can become very hostile when they feel threatened. Aside from being threatened, the plants are fairly innocuous and because of their habit of mutating, these plants have been adopted by terraformers for the known galaxy's first free-range terraformation project. Occasionally, a plant will revert to baser instincts, but these cases are few and far between.
In the novel (without spoiling, XD) these plants are semi-important, but are not the villains.
I know it seems silly to worry about this. However, in most media (particularly animation) whenever plants attack, its played (understandably) for laughs.
Thanks in advance.
